NYX Professional Makeup Wonder Stick Highlight and Contour Stick (Various Shades) - Deep

My boyfriend got me the NYX Wonder Stick for my birthday and I LOVE it. It is a double sided makeup stick with contour on one end and highlighter on the other end. I used this product by applying the contour side to my forehead, drawing parallel lines on the bridge of my nose with it, drawing lines under the tip of my nose and above it, applying it to the higher point of my cheekbones for a lifted effect and then under my chin and lastly drawling lines on my jawline with it. Then, I blended that with a makeup brush, tapping it in. I applied the highlighter side on my inner corners, my nose bridge and the tip/button of my nose. I blended that with my fingers. Sometimes, I use a bit of the highlighter with my fingers on my cheeks as well. What I liked about this product was that it was easy to blend with buildable coverage, not taking long to blend at all. I also liked that the product didn’t look muddy or patchy on my skin like some contours do and that it made my face look so snatched and defined. I liked that the highlighter was easy to blend as well, not taking long at all and that it looked very vibrant, giving off a pretty glow. A little goes a long way with the highlighter. Both sides to the stick are buildable and don’t look chalky or unnatural like a lot of sticks like that do. Both the contour and the highlighter last all day/night when you apply them. There’s not one thing I don’t like about this product and I recommend it to people who are looking for a good contour and highlighter and don’t want to pay for both separately. It really is a game changer and money saver. I rate this product a 10/10.

I have this item in my make up bag and always use it when doing my make up for a special occasion or night out as it gives your face a nicer more prominent look!! It enhances your cheek bones whilst then shading out other areas of your face to give it the best look! Woudl deffo recommend if you want a proper professional make up look!

After the hype of the powdered contour kits I decided i wanted to give the creams a try. I pondered upon the NYX wonder stick and i am very impressed with the product, I have the light/medium shade which is a cool toned brown making it suitable for contour as opposed to the warm tones found in bronzers. The product is easy to use and travel friendly. As a guy I enjoy using this I find it to be a fairly undetectable compared to warm orange contour colours. The cream allows an effortless blend and the colour can be built for more definition. The pale highlight is a bonus as it contains NO shimmer though i find its more noticeable in fine lines on the face. the stick is also thick enough not to snap on first use and yet thin enough to create a slim contour line. happily recommend this!
