If you like harsh, very deep contour this palette is a win for you. Easy to blend, with a good contour brush you can put this on evenly, gives you a nice deep look. However most of the time I prefer something more sheer, and unfortunately it doesn’t have a soft contour colour in it. I’ve tried to dab some foundation over it, but it becomes muddy looking, I’ve also tried to mix the highlight with a contour colour, but it’s was ashy and it just doesn’t worth the effort. If you have a fair, light skin tone, maybe you should consider to go for an other palette.

I am in my late 20's/early 30's with dry, light tone skin and green eyes. My hair is medium brown, oily with normal texture.
I liked this product for a while but I don't grab for it as often anymore. The quality of the shades are amazing and are very blendable, but the shades do run out fairly quickly. It is okay for price but I would definitely try something different next time.

I brought the Nyx Pallete from Debenhams in Cardiff. I was competing in a beauty pagent and the directors told us we needed to Define our cheeks more due to the harsh white spot lights which make you look as if you have no cheekbones or any defining features. All I can say is that this pallete is a life saver, the product blends seamlessly and it doesn't give you that "just got punched in the face" effect that some contour pallets do give. But I will say BLEND UPWORD, it's easier to blend the product and your cheeks have a sharp effect as blending downwards has the tendency to make your face look more rounded. This product is pigmented so a little goes a long way , but don't worry if it looks too harsh, use a dab of foundation to sheer it out and your good to go 😁. I will say you may have to mix some of the colours to get your perfect fit highlight and contour shade so the pans may end up a little messy but that's the whole point 😅. Have fun and I hope it work's out for you like it did for me, I'm no longer competing but I still use it on the daily 😁.

One of the best gifts for me. Would never have gone out to get a contouring palette, but so Glad I got it gifted to me otherwise would have missed out on something worthwhile

I've tried some other products for contouring and it never worked for until I got the nyx one! I love the fact that their are different shades for contouring as I do my friends make up sometimes ❤

This was the first contour palette I'd ever bought, its so easy to use! The colours blend so well together. It's perfect for use on your whole face. The powder sits so well on foundation!
I love using the shimmer highlighters as a base for my actual highlighter as they are not as bright as I like to wear for night out make up but they are perfect for daytime shimmer!
I use the darkest shade only on nights out and when I want my make up to stand out in photos. But the two lighter browns I use every day, I even use them when I don't put foundation on and they look naturally contoured.

Before I found this palette I had never done contouring before. I was introduced to this glorious product and I have to say I am OBSESSED! I'm already onto my second palette. There are different bronze tones to go with all skin tones and the highlighter is gorgeous especially when used in the inner corner of the eye. This is a must have.

I’ve just got my second one as my first one was destroyed because I loved it that much. I love it for contouring I use the two in the middle and the light matte shades are great to set the under eyes and the icy highlighter is great when I need to lighten a highlighter

this pallet is very very nice! i was very surprised that it was under £20 pound, as its so easy to blend and quite light as well. you can build this to however dark you want it. The powders in this palette feel nice and silky smooth when swatched. They're also very pigmented - which is a good and bad thing. Good - for setting under your eyes coz it really does brighten up the area, but bad for contouring since you need to use a really light hand otherwise it's easy to go overboard - especially with the darker colors. Speaking of the darker colors, i do wish they were more cooler toned. Aside from 1 noticeably cool toned contour color...the rest of them are very "warm". One of them even comes out "orange" on my skin if I'm not too careful.
They stay on all day until i'm ready to remove my makeup. Doesn't break me out which is a HUGE plus since I have hyper-sensitive skin. 98% of things i use end up giving me some kinda reaction...but this doesn't. YAY!
All in all, i do like this palette. I love the fact that you can take out each individual pan so you don't have to buy the entire palette again if you run out of 1 or 2 colors. Also, I would likely replace some of the warm darker shades with a couple of the cool toned color when/if they are available in stores.

the highlight in this is incredibly beautiful and i feel like the contour shades were mostly all perfect for me, i just blend most of them together.
Light texture powder and blends out well
