(top left) **makeup by mario softsculpt transforming skin enhancer** in *light medium*:
* its good and i’ll probably repurchased once a sale comes when i’m nearing a complete pan…or maybe i’d try the stick contour/bronzer instead? 5g is so little product even though i love the formula </3
(top middle) **kaleidos symphony contour trio** in *light:*
* the contour shades have a beautiful, smooth powder formula, buildable and easily blendable. the matte highlight is very powdery which is likely why i hit pan only after 2 months of use…also while i love the formula i think the middle contour shade is actually too cool/grey on me, so i basically always mix the two shades
* the contour palette i was using before deciding to change to the kaleidos trio. it does the job and while the formula isn’t as cosmetically elegant as kaleidos’s, i do think FK’s sheerer pigmentation lends itself better for beginner use. it takes a while to build up a deeper depth compared to kaleidos and in comparison is a tad chalky and patchier. not too noticeable on the face but something that’s apparent in application
(bottom left) **hourglass ambient lighting powder** in *diffused light*
* unfortunately for my wallet, it’s really good. really does act like a blur filter in a powder. using it as finishing powder just pulls any base makeup together. hopefully itll last me for another ten million years of use so i dont have to repurchase for awhile 😔
(bottom middle) **excel draped highlighter** in *DS02 (beige glow)*
* unexpected baby pan! i do love this highlighter, it gives a subtle but elevated sheen to the face, almost satin-like? kinda like a slightly stronger version of the HG ambient powder, actually. great for when i want a subtler glow
(bottom right) **make up for ever HD skin all-in-one face palette** in *harmony 1*
* the green shade has been through it lol i use it to colour correct my acne redness (which is a lot) so its been used way more. the formula in the palette is great and creamy, but honestly lately i’ve been reaching more for my nars soft matte concealer pot for spot concealing. plus i dont actually make much use of the other half of the palette so i don’t think this will be a repurchase ✌️
