I've been trying to get more into contouring and highlighting lately, and my recent trials have been with Clinique's Chubby Stick Sculpting Contour* & Highlight* ($24 CAD each)! These two products are a bit different from anything that I've tried before, since they are cream products. Read on to see how I got on with these jumbo cream sticks!
Clinique's Chubby Stick Sculpting Contour or Curvy Contour is a deep brown shade that actually works well with my pale skin tone. I don't find this shade to be too orange or warm for me, which is the problem that I tend to have with most contouring products. This formula is super smooth & creamy, and very easy to blend out. I like to apply this to the hollows of my cheeks, and blend, blend, blend!
"Luminous cream highlighting stick with light-reflecting optics brings your best features forward. Long-wearing, oil-free." - Clinique
Clinique's Chubby Stick Sculpting Highlight or Hefty Highlight is a beautiful shimmery pearl highlighter. Again, this product has a super creamy formula and it's very easy to blend out. The only downside to this product is that it will move around any powder blush that you're wearing. For me, that's kind of a deal breaker, since you all know that I love my blush!
I really love how creamy and blendable both of these products are! However, the highlighter does have one key flaw since it does move around my blush. I think that the Sculpting Contour will be great for us pale gals, since the colour doesn't turn orange and it's easy to blend out. I do still prefer powder contouring and highlighting products, but these cream Chubby Sticks were fun to try out!
Are you a fan of powder or cream contouring and highlighting products?

DeleteNo problem! :)
DeleteOh I agree, I actually don't use any cream highlighter with powders, it just doesn't mix :(
