Hollywood Contour Wand

I bought this because I wanted a more intense highlight and have fair skin with a yellow undertone (being fair with yellow undertones means i match highlighters as like shiny foundations half the time) but this one was listed as having a rose gold color. When it arrived and I applied it to my face, it didn't lighten the areas where it was applied, unless that part of my face was reflecting light at the minute- so it's kind of like how it would look if I were applying some kind of pale shimmer gloss to the skin rather than something opaque, but that is only because I'm pale. I actually like how this works that way- it would be nice if there were a range of shades so that you could get the same effect if your skin was darker as well, because I think it looks really nice and much more natural on me due to the color, although it is VERY reflective if you put it on high points and tap but don't blend. I also find that the product is very concentrated and that blending it in well can make the face look plump and young and gorgeous. When it dries, it can look very smooth and satiny if you blend, and really metallic and POW if you only tap it a little. I added this product to some usual (very minimal) CT makeup I put on my face and went to the store, and noticed that a good number of random people were extra friendly to me. That was a good experience, whether related or random. All in all, I will definitely keep wearing this product. « less

I wanted a contour product that was easy to apply and blend. The tube and foam applicator make this a very easy to use product. The product does come out quickly and it takes a couple of tries to get the right amount out. Careful not to squeeze to hard or way too much product will come out. The product does dry quickly so it's important to blend quickly after application. I like that the contour product does not have any sheen and blends smoothly into the skin. There are many days I use just this and concealer on my face, it does not require powder to set. I have light/medium skin tone with warm undertones. This product works well with my skin tone.

Very blendable product with a great undertone. It is slightly grey, which is great for contouring and mimicking shadow. A little goes a long way so be sure to use a light hand as it is very pigmented.

This is by far the best cream contour you'll find, I highly suggest you buy it. I'd been using the MILK Bronzing Stick for a while until I found this. It is so easy to apply and blend out. You can easily blend it out with a brush, a sponge or your hands! You can use this to both contour and sculpt the face, but also as a bronzer. It's extremely long lasting as well, I had it on for over 10 hours, with no bronzing powder on top and it stayed put. The only downside of this is there isn't too much product, so it's easy to run out of this which is a bit of a bummer given how expensive it is. But I haven't found anything like it, so I can't help but buy it again.

It is very easy to apply & I think the packaging is really cute; however, it doesn't really show up after I blend it in. This could be an application error on my part, but I am pretty familiar with contouring and usually have the opposite issue if any (too much, too dark). I had to put on a few layers for it to really start showing. I also thought it was a bit difficult to apply to my nose & felt the applicator was so big that it gave a dirty look versus a chiseled look. This is the only product I've used from Charlotte Tilbury that I wasn't thrilled by. I love everything else! Also, the tube isn't completely full!
