The application is smooth, and the stick format makes it convenient to use.
ConsThe product quantity is quite small, and it breaks easily. The shimmer particles are on the larger side.

The angled cut of the applicator makes it easy to apply even in contoured areas. Ingredients: Thanks to its gentle formulation without harmful ingredients, I didn't experience any blemishes after application. Adherence: After blending, it sets to a powdery finish that adheres well to the skin.
ConsColor: The shades didn't look natural on me at all. The contour shade was too reddish, while the highlighter was excessively bright. Shimmer: The highlighter's shimmer remains too intense even after blending. Wrinkle Accentuation: Applying the highlighter between the brows emphasizes fine lines. Pore Emphasis: Using the contour shade around the nose not only looks unnatural but also significantly accentuates pores. Scent: Personally, I dislike the fragrance. It's hard to describe, but it's not pleasant.
TipFor best results, try blending with a small sponge applicator.

It's great to gently pat it in with a small puff after application, or if you're in a hurry, just quickly spread it out with your fingers.
ConsUnfortunately, there's no suitable shade for those with a complexion lighter than #23. Also, the highlighter part contains some shimmer, so it's not recommended for those who dislike sparkle.

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.ProsI love that the highlighter and shading are combined! When you buy them separately, you're always opening this and that...but with this, you just give it a quick spin and you're good to go!
ConsIt clumps a bit when applying...it forms little lumps and feels like it's going on thick. For me, choosing the right shade is always the trickiest part. I bought a lighter shade for contouring, but it looks like I've got something smeared on my face. So it's really important to find a shade that matches your skin tone well! (Obvious, I know!) As for the highlighter part, the shimmer is so intense it's a bit overwhelming, so I struggle to use it.
TipIf you gently massage it in circular motions with your fingers for a while, it blends more naturally! Be careful not to apply too much though, as it can stain your skin!

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.

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.ProsI loved that I could apply it smoothly without a brush, just using my hands. The absorption was decent too. It was convenient for touch-ups when I was out and about.
ConsAs for the highlighter, even though I usually like bold looks, this was too noticeable and flashy... They said it was a natural shimmer, but... When applying, it would clump up in places. After being outside for a bit and sweating, it wore off quickly. You need to touch it up frequently. The contour had too much of a reddish tint, which wasn't great... Also, it set a bit too fast, so you have to blend quickly, which was a bit inconvenient. Sometimes when rushing, the base makeup would come off...

ConsThe highlighter has a bit too much shimmer. While it works well on the nose, I'm a little hesitant to apply it on my forehead.

It's perfect for a quick, simple application and convenient to carry around. I bought it on sale at a great price, and it exceeded my expectations. The color isn't too intense, and being a stick format makes it easy to apply in thin layers!
ConsThe cap seems to open too easily... As for the highlighter shade, when applied, the shimmer feels like it's floating on the skin, so I don't use it often. The amount of product is also quite small, which is disappointing.

It has a slightly yellow undertone, but the product itself has this intriguing grayish-pink hue. Once blended, it looks incredibly natural. The shading color appears more grayish-pink than in the swatch photo.
ConsThe highlighter shade is an odd, neither-here-nor-there cyborg white pearl... Unless you're buying it on sale, I wouldn't really recommend it at this price point, especially because of the highlighter color.
TipWhen blending with the puff applicator, it can set quickly, which might lead to rubbing your face too hard or causing the makeup to pill. I recommend dampening the puff slightly before use.

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.ProsThe Hwahae Testers I've tried to capture the most accurate color representation possible. My skin has a yellow undertone, and I use shades 21-22. My usual routine: Highlighter - None Contour - Tony Moly Crystal Blusher #7 Bronzing Brown What I loved about this product: The application is incredibly satisfying The pigmentation of both the highlighter and contour is impressively intense The angled cut allows for precise application on areas like the nose bridge The sleek design is a plus Unlike my usual powder products, this creamy formula applies beautifully. I've particularly enjoyed experimenting with nose contouring lately. Pro tip: I apply it with a Daiso blending puff, which works wonderfully. Highly recommend! Some users mentioned the contour being too noticeable, but personally, I find Etude House's product gives me that 'finally, I've contoured' look, more so than Tony Moly's. It's not excessive - with the right application, it beautifully defines the jawline. However, the highlighter is a different story...
ConsThe highlighter issue: I don't typically use highlighter, so this might be subjective. But when I wore it on a date, I didn't notice indoors how it looked outdoors. The shimmer was intense, and the color stood out so much against my skin that it actually made my complexion look worse. Instead of enhancing my nose bridge, forehead, or aegyo sal, it made my skin texture look more pronounced. The highlighted areas seemed to sit on top of my makeup rather than blend seamlessly. After a few more attempts, I've given up on using it. I sincerely hope no one buys this product solely for the highlighter. While the contour is decent, the highlighter is... well, let's just say it's not my cup of tea.
TipMy advice? Ditch the highlighter, folks! This is just my opinion, but I'd recommend using a different product for highlighting. The contour, however, is satisfactory. I highly recommend using the Daiso blending puff (the firm, teardrop-shaped one) when applying this product. It works wonders for blending the contour. If the highlighter had been better, I would have given this 4 stars... oh well! I plan to update this review after I've used up the entire product.
