I enjoy a glowy skin look, so I never considered using powder contour. However, this one applies creamily and blends naturally with just a quick swipe. It finishes with a slightly powdery feel. Even those who aren't makeup experts could easily use this. The difference between using it and not is noticeable - it really makes my face look slimmer. I always use it when I want to put extra effort into my makeup!
ConsThe highlighting part is barely used and remains almost untouched, while I've completely used up the contouring side. That's why I bought a new one. I wish they sold the darker part separately...
TipI apply it along my jawline and blend it quickly. A light application on the sides of the nose makes it appear more defined. When using a cushion foundation lighter than my skin tone, I apply the contour around the edges to match my neck color for a natural look. I occasionally use the light part as an eyeshadow base, and the dark part to define my double eyelids. However, I stopped using it on my eyes after a couple of tries because it seemed to get stuck in the crease.

The creamy texture makes it easy to use. It definitely helps create more dimension and sculpts the face nicely.
ConsI think I'd like it even more if the lighter shade had a bit more shimmer. The color doesn't seem to suit me perfectly, so I've been using only the darker shade.
TipIt's easy to carry around and great for adding some subtle contour when traveling light.

It's compact, making it easy to carry for touch-ups. Just swipe and blend - simple and effective!
Cons✓ The staying power was somewhat disappointing, and for someone who contours their nose, it felt more like a reddish-brown than a dark brown ✓ The highlighter is too bright and requires a lot of blending! If you don't blend thoroughly, it might look more like your skin is floating rather than highlighted
Tip✓ After applying, using a puff to blend gives an even better contouring effect! ✓ It also works well along the hairline!

Both parts come in a cream form, and the texture is smooth when applied. It blends out nicely too. I was especially satisfied with the shading part.
ConsThe pigmentation of the shading part is quite intense. If you don't blend it well, it becomes noticeable quickly... You might end up with a beard-like effect on your chin. The highlight part tends to clump a bit. Something to keep in mind when using it.

I'm here with my review as one of The Hwahae Testers. Thank you, Etude! I wasn't originally a big Etude fan, but lately, they seem to be doing better than I expected. I have extremely oily skin that's also dehydrated, probably shade 21, with an undertone dilemma. Oh, and I received shade 1 Original. 1. Application When I tested it on my hand, I was surprised by how smoothly it applied! It wasn't quite as smooth on my face, but the overall application was still good. 2. Color The color really surprised me! The contour part had a soft chestnut hue, while the highlight was an ivory white. The pearl finish was impressive, giving a beautiful glow (amazing!). The contour shade was just... well, chestnut was the first thing that came to mind! To my eyes, it seemed like a neutral tone, neither too warm nor too cool. However, it might be too light for those with deeper skin tones, barely showing up. 3. Staying power Given my oily skin, products tend to slide off quickly. Even after setting with powder, after about 2.5 hours, the contour had mostly faded, though some of the highlighter's shimmer remained. Oh, my troublesome skin... Overall, it's a decent product that exceeded my expectations. It's worth trying if you're looking for something new.
ConsThe staying power was disappointing on my skin type, which is unavoidable for me. While I loved the color, that was the main letdown. Also, the case... somehow glitter got on the handle, which was annoying. I'm not a fan of glitter getting all over my hands.

Luckily, I got selected as one of The Hwahae Testers! Here's what I liked: Longevity: Pretty good! It lasts about 4-5 hours. Application: The absorbs is really nice. It glides on smoothly, and you can even blend it well with your fingers instead of a puff. It's perfect for touching up on-the-go - just swipe it on your jawline and blend when you feel like your makeup needs a refresh. Adherence: Decent! It doesn't transfer much and feels like it's really sticking to the skin.
ConsColor: As someone with shade 17 skin, I found the contour color too dark with slight yellow and red undertones, making it look unnatural. The highlighter part also doesn't blend well and sits on top of the skin. The highlighter is really disappointing. When applied to the forehead, the shimmer particles tend to migrate, and later you'll find them stuck to your eyebrows.
TipFor nose contouring, don't apply the stick directly. Instead, use your pinky finger to pick up the product and apply it. This product seems to work well for touch-ups.

My skin tone is around dark 23, or light 24 if that helps. First, the packaging! Personally, I really love it. The logo looks more luxurious now, and after the redesign, the product quantity has increased quite a bit. The shading pan is wider, making it easier to apply on the jawline. The angled design of the product also makes it convenient to use on the face. The application is smooth - it's not stiff at all and glides on softly. When I first received the shading color, I was worried it might be too intense, but it turned out quite natural on me. It seemed to have a reddish tint when swatched on my hand, but once applied and blended on my face, it looked beautifully natural. You can set it with a powder shading or regular powder for longer-lasting wear. Having the shading and highlighter together definitely makes it convenient and portable.
ConsWhile the shading is decent enough to use, the highlighter is just... white. Despite its name, it's neither pearly nor anything else - it's just plain white. When applied, it looks very artificial. It might work for those with extremely fair skin, but on darker complexions, it looks almost robotic. Even with blending, it's still very noticeable. To be honest, I don't reach for this product much. Since I don't use the highlighter, the convenience of having both products together is lost.
TipPlease note that in the photo, the shading color appears slightly redder than it actually is in real life.

It applies incredibly creamy and blends beautifully even with just your fingers.
ConsIt has a strong reddish undertone... The color works okay on the jawline, but it's a no-go for the nose area.

ConsThe highlighter looks too stark on my skin. When applied between the eyebrows, it feels like white shimmer just floating around. While the eyeshadow is fantastic, I personally don't care for the highlighter. Also, the amount is incredibly tiny - barely enough to cover the tip of your pinky. You might use it all up in about 2-3 months. Honestly, it feels a bit overpriced for 12,000 won
TipIf you're going to buy it, it's best to grab it during a sale. Instead of applying with your fingers, it works better if you use a damp sponge or mist-soaked puff to pat and blend it in
