Pros
The natural look: If you have a cool undertone, it can sometimes look too gray, and if you have a warm undertone, it can look too orange, which can look unnatural. But this was natural-looking, which was great. The convenience: When doing chin shading in a hurry, I just rubbed the product on and blended it out with a brush, and it was more convenient than I expected, so I often used this method in the morning.
Cons
Powder dispersion: The powder dispersion is a bit severe. In fact, this product consists of 2 shading components, one of which turns grayish and the other turns orangish, so you should mix them well before using.

Pros
The 23rd skin type has a subtle, unnoticeable feel, but I'm still using it well. Even beginners can use it naturally.
Cons
There are no downsides. There are also brushes, so it's good for beginners.

Pros
The color naturally develops into a grayish hue with the reddish tones faded out.
Cons
I personally enjoy natural-looking things, but those who apply heavy shading tend to have a lighter color payoff.

Pros
The truth is, I'm not really good at shading originally, so I used to use the famous Two-Faced School shading, but then I found out I'm a cool-toned person, so I bought a cool-toned shading and it's really great..! Even though I'm a complete shading beginner, the shading comes out naturally like a shadow, and there's a guide inside, which is great 😍 When I bought it, the chin brush was also included in the set, so I didn't have to buy it separately, which was good 👍
Cons
There is a bit of powder dust. It seems that the upper color is used much more than the lower color, so it would be better if the ratio of the upper color to the lower color is not 1:1, but rather 2:1 or 3:1.
Tip
There are shading guidelines inside, so if you follow them, even beginners can do shading naturally. 🥰🥰

Pros
The Bbia Coolbox has been discontinued, so what should I do with the cool-toned skin?! I tried using Wake Make products, but for some reason the cosmetics seemed to clump up. They didn't apply well, so I ended up purchasing the Etude House product instead. The yellowish, slightly grayish undertone that suits cool-toned skin the best is what I like the most, and the deep brown shade works well for the outer edges to create a natural look. This product didn't clump, which I really appreciated.
Cons
There's nothing special about it~ It seems there's not much powder scattering compared to the cooler box, so I'm satisfied.
Tip
The light shading at the top can be applied to the chin below the nose, cheekbones, and all areas. That base shading suits cool-toned skin, so apply it first. Then, lightly add a dark brown (common warm and cool tone color) to the outer perimeter of the face, and it will look natural.

Pros
I have a warm-toned complexion, but cool-toned shading works better for a natural look! Among cool-toned shading palettes, the Etude House one is the most natural-looking and has great staying power.👍🏻💗
Cons
Applying shading to detailed areas like COBOL is more inconvenient with a stick than other methods.🥲

Pros
The powder type applies naturally and spreads smoothly without clumping! Moreover, even beginners can apply it very naturally, and this is my first time trying shading, but it looks natural without any yellowish tones! I thought the grayish color might look a bit strange, but it actually looked like a natural shadow, which I liked!!
Cons
It's a pity that the color is too light, so you have to apply another layer. That's the only thing I'm dissatisfied with!! If you paint a little more with the brown color underneath, it will look more natural since it's too light!
Tip
First, please guide us with the grayish tone above, and if you would like to add a little more shading, you can do so with the brownish color below!!

Pros
I'm really satisfied and using it well, as my favorite natural-looking makeup is done perfectly with my nose appearing to be lifted. I bought it from Olive Young and received a brush and highlighter along with it, and I'm using all of them well!!!
Cons
If I had to point out anything, it would be that there is a slight amount of powder dispersal and that it gets used up quickly if you don't use a powder.

Pros
The color fit my skin perfectly, and there was no yellowish tint, so it didn't look unnatural. I usually use it for contouring the nose, and it looks incredibly natural - like I'm not even wearing anything. The highlighting effect is amazing!
Cons
The color seems a bit too light, so it would be nice if the shading around the chin area could be applied a bit more intensely. 🥺
