I really loved how there's no pilling with the base, so you can just swipe it on with your fingers. It's also great that it smooths out the skin without emphasizing texture, almost like it's moisturizing. The contouring part is absolutely fantastic.
ConsI dislike the highlighter part so much I want to take it out and step on it... First off, it really emphasizes dead skin cells and texture (though I do have a lot of flaky skin). The base completely pills. It doesn't blend well and creates a harsh line between the product and my skin.
TipA good starter stick contour?

The contour part blends well even over foundation. The highlighter also goes on smoothly without disturbing the base. Color: There's no redness, so you won't end up looking like a burning sweet potato. Staying power: It smudges well with fingers or a blending brush. Price: The duo format makes it good value.
ConsThere's some clumping when blending with a puff. You'll likely use up the contour side faster than the highlighter. The highlighter shade is very white - perhaps too white. The stick is a bit thick for directly contouring the nose area. Sometimes when applying, it can pill up like dead skin cells.

Since I have quite dark skin, I usually look for deeper shading colors, and this one was absolutely perfect. It wasn't too red on my skin, nor was it overly yellow - just right for my use. The product itself has a slightly soft texture, which made it easy to apply and blend. The color payoff was great too!
ConsThis product comes as a dual shading and highlighter combo. While the shading part was really good, the highlighter was terribly disappointing. It was literally like chalk - nothing more, nothing less. The color payoff was extremely stiff, and the shade itself wasn't a shimmery, natural pearl effect, but rather an unnatural stark white. It caused my base makeup to pill as soon as I applied it. The base just slides off when you try to apply the highlighter. Only the shading part is worth using.

While I enjoyed the Latte Brown, it was almost too natural even on my fair skin, so I often added another layer of shading. I debated between getting Latte again or trying Original, and I'm glad I chose Original - it's better than I expected! Despite some reviews mentioning a reddish tone in Original, I didn't notice much. It appears darker compared to Latte Brown, but not necessarily redder. Surprisingly, Original still looks quite natural. Those with shade 23 skin might find it similar to Latte Brown. The darker color provides a more noticeable effect. The staying power is impressive. With just the shading stick and some powder on top, it lasts all day. Unexpectedly, the highlighter is quite good. It's white with subtle shimmer. When applied to the nose, it's not obvious up close, but from a distance, the effect is clear! It has a different charm compared to powder highlighters.
ConsWhen touching up, it can pill over foundation. It's best used only during initial makeup application. The product sets quickly, so you need to blend fast and carefully to avoid patchiness. This makes it challenging to use when you're in a hurry.
TipFor blending, using a foundation-coated puff works better than a clean one to eliminate streaks and achieve a natural look. Due to its quick-setting nature, instead of haphazardly swiping the shading stick, it's best to precisely draw your desired shape and then blend around it for a beautiful, accurate contour. The highlighter tends to pill more than the shading stick, so instead of swiping, try applying it with your fingertip or gently dabbing it on. Using small amounts helps showcase this highlighter's strengths!

ConsThe contour shade pills excessively and has too much of a reddish tone. The highlighter doesn't adhere well to the skin and looks patchy. I'm not sure if it's because this is my first time using a stick format, but I think I'd be better off using other brands or even powder products instead.

It seems to have a subtle, fine shimmer... But it's not noticeable, which is great! It's subtle enough to wear to school. The thickness is perfect for highlighting the nose.
ConsIt does feel a bit like it's sitting on top of the skin, but it's still usable.
TipThis also works beautifully for creating natural-looking aegyo sal.

When applied well, it can make your nose bridge appear higher and works great as a highlighter! Best of all, the slim stick design is perfect for contouring the nose.
ConsWhen rubbing with fingers, it seems to cause the base makeup to pill.
TipWhen blending, it's better to gently pat and tap rather than rubbing to avoid pilling.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsIt was convenient having both highlighter and shading in one product. No need to take out two separate items for makeup. The cream texture applied smoothly, making it easy to blend. The color was better than I expected - subtle and not too flashy.
ConsThere's some pilling when you apply the highlighter after foundation. It's best to apply the highlighter and then gently blend it out. Otherwise, you might end up with a noticeable buildup on the tip of your nose...
