Glo Skin Beauty Contour Kit (Fair to Light) Review + Swatches

This is the Fair to Light Contour Kit.

One of my favorite forms of makeup is contouring and highlighting palettes.  With this one product, I can totally change the look of my face through shadows and light by artificially carving out a new bone structure.  The Glo Skin Beauty Contour Kit is an exciting option toward that goal from what I discovered.

This #Contour Kit comes in two shades the fair to light version that I selected and a medium to dark grouping of four mineral powders.  You also get instructions for placement attached inside this $38.00 kit.  The packaging is cardboard with a slip cover and magnetic closure to this slim kit.

The highlight shades are on the left, but didn't photograph well with the contour shades on the right.

Inside the Fair to Light Contour Kit, the both contour shades are matte, but one is slightly darker with more bronze brown to it while the other has more pink to the brown.  As far as the highlight shades go, there are two.  The first one is matte and the other shimmering champagne.

These powders are smooth, easy to blend and don’t streak. They did provide enough pigment to keep my makeup natural and stayed true without fading for hours, which is important to me.  

If you’re searching for a wonderful Contour Kit that can help keep your shadows and highlighting realistic instead over the top, then you should check out this one from Glo Skin Beauty!

Glo Skin Beauty Cream Stay Shadow Sticks (Toast, Pitch) Review

Toast is on the left with Pitch on the right.

Those that have sensitive eyes may find cream formulas or eye shadow crayons more to their liking over powders.  This variety such as Glo Skin Beauty’s Cream Stay Shadow Sticks cling better to the lid without risking eyes to any product dust that could find its way inside.  

I received two shades of that six-product line with Toast and Pitch.  Toast is a cool, medium brown that has more of a gleam than actual shimmer to it.  On the other hand, Pitch is a matte black and was better suited as eyeliner.  These crayons do not have a built-in sharpener like the earlier ones came with.

The formula is creamy with beautiful pigment that does blend well, but it must be done quickly with how fast this crayon sets.  It does crease after several hours when you go without a primer.  However, I didn’t run into that problem when I primed first so keep that in mind.

Something else that I really love about makeup crayons in general is how little space they take in a makeup bag or in tiny clutch.  The Cream Stay Shadow Sticks ($20.00) also make great beauty stocking stuffers so check them out at Glo Skin Beauty.

Glo Skin Beauty Suede Matte and Creamy Lip Crayons Review + Swatches: The Extra Holiday Glam You May Be Looking for

On the left is Crimson, then Monogram, Demure, and ending with Bombshell on the right.

The holidays are a time when you’ll be  visiting friends and family making the rounds to parties and celebrations.  With all that toasting and nibbling ahead, long-lasting lip color that doesn’t require constant touch-ups is especially important.  A suggestion I have for you is Glo Skin Beauty’s Suede Matte and Creamy Glaze Lip Crayons that I got to try.

These mineral-based lip crayons are enriched with vitamins C and E, mango oil and shea butter for keeping lips comfortable.  Besides a beautiful color payoff, these lip products tend to wear like a stain. 

The earlier ones came with a sharpener at one end, but no longer do.  You need to use a separate sharpener.

The Suede Matte Crayons consist of seven shades and retail for $18.00 each.  I received the following four: Monogram (medium nude that has equal amount of pink to brown), Bombshell (classy red that is more neutral than swaying toward a blue or orange red), Demure (mauve-pink), and Crimson (red brown with pink).  

 Going right to left is Demure, Mimosa, Crimson, Praline, Dahila,Bombshell, Bloom, Monogram, and Heirloom .

I thought these matte crayons had a moisturizing feel on the lips and not nearly as dry as other matte formulas can be.  They do sink into the lips after about an hour or so but that luscious velvet color is perfectly intact despite eating or drinking.  

The Creamy Glaze Crayons have a shinier, glossy look to them.  Out of the six becoming shades, I was sent five that include: Heirloom (gorgeous mauve-pink), Bloom (lilac-pink), Dahila (medium violet-pink), Mimosa (warm pink with some coral), and Praline (light gold infused brown).

Starting on the left is Praline, Heirloom, Mimosa, Dahila, and ending with Bloom on the right.

These feel wonderful, stay in place and also manage to remain on the lips after eating and drinking.  You'll appreciate how they manage to keep up with you for hours on end.

Another thing I loved about these lip crayons is how extra convenient their slim size makes them for fitting into a tiny evening bag.  If you haven’t tried Glo Skin Beauty’s Suede Matte or Creamy Glaze Lip Crayons yet, I think that you’ll really like the feel and wear of these.  Check them out!
