REVIEW | ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS CONTOUR KIT ♡
I'm probably the last person on the 'Anastasia Contour kit' train! To be honest the kit never really caught my attention like some of the other ones did, which is surprising seeing as this kit is everywhere! However during my recent trip to Sephora i decided to pick it up to see if it really is worth all the hype!

(Please Excuse the dirtiness of the product its had a lot of use, don't expect for this to stay pristine its going to get messy no matter what you do!)

The Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Kit retails at $40, pricey-YES! but you do get 6 good sized universal shades you can contour and highlight with. The colours are nicely pigmented and matte. I love the fact the pans are refillable so you can play around with the 6 shades see which ones you love and hate then customise to make your own perfect pallet. The refill shades are $14 each. 6x14=84 so $40 for the pallet is a pretty good price!
PROS:
- Excellent Quality
- Sleek Packaging
- Refillable
- Works well for fair, pasty skin like myself.
CONS:
- Expensive, (Although it can be justified!)
- If you have a heavy hand it can take quite a while to blend the contour colours out.
- Doesn't come with a 'how to' guide it relies on self-education, however; there are SO many youtube tutorials for every skin type.
- Powdery! The dust gets everywhere!
I 100% recommend this product i don't know why i didn't pick it up sooner. The price is worth it to me its a product i grab almost every day especially the Banana shade, its a beautiful and brightening under the eye perfect to set your under eye concealer! The Shade Fawn is perfect for my Contour being that im so fair skin its not muddy or orange like i find most contour colours for me. It really is a lovely product worth the money and a must for your makeup collection!
