Flower Knows Butterfly Cloud Collar Contour and Highlight Palette – 02 Tawny Tea.
For those of you who don't know what matte highlighter is, it's for adding volume to certain parts of the face such as the bridge and tip of the nose, darkest parts of eye bags, around your nose, around your mouth, on your chin, inner corners of eyes, browbone, etc. It is very commonly used in Chinese makeup, as well as in Japanese and Korean makeup to a lesser extent.
I sweep the matte highlighter onto certain areas of my face with a large eye brush/small face brush or occasionally with a small powder puff, whereas I use a big fluffy brush to apply the contour that picks up less product, which is probably why I panned the matte highlighter faster.
Anyways, so I really like this contour palette; it's my holygrail. At least IME, it's more pigmented than both the Judydoll and the Timage contour/highlight palettes. But it is also more powdery and have quite a lot of kickback (depending on what kind of tool you use to apply it), which I don't mind since it's more pigmented. The Timage one is very finely milled and have no kickback at all, but it is not very pigmented. The formula of the Judydoll one is good, but I hate how small it is; the compact is about the same size as my Ofra highlighter. So I like how much bigger the Flower Knows palette is. Easier to dip your brushes in.
