Contouring and Highlighting with Too Faced

The hot topic of every blog is contouring and contouring pallets, so why should I miss out on all the fun? I picked up Too Faced Cocoa Contour kit and I was so in love I wanted to share my thoughts with you guys! By the way, if you love the chocolate smell of their chocolate bars, this kit smells amazingly chocolaty! Yum!

So pretty right! Two contour shades and two highlight shades. It also comes with a super cute and wonderfully soft contour brush not in the picture because it is currently being washed. Do you wash your brushes weekly? You should! Anyway, besides smelling amazing, they also look amazing. I did some swatches but I'm pale so the highlight shades are a little hard to see on my skin.

I use the Dark Cocoa to carve out my contour. I place it under my cheek bones, around my forehead, and under my jawline. With Medium Cocoa I contour my nose and use it as a bronzer over the contour to help blend and to warm up my face a bit. Light Cocoa goes under my above the contour on my cheeks and T zone ( center of forehead, down the bridge of my nose, and chin) then I use Pop of Light on my cheekbones and just a little on my forehead. It almost matches my skin tone but it does give a nice sparkle when the light hits. I love how easy this whole kit is to blend. I was a little worried since I am so light skinned that the darker colors may be a problem but the blend out great and I love how it looks!

The pictures on the left are before contouring and the pictures on the right are after. Sorry for the brightness on some of the pictures, I didn't realize until after that my door made a much better backdrop. Well you live and learn right? I didn't contour my nose in this picture, still haven't decided if I like it better with or without yet, but I definitely like carving out my cheekbones and forehead with this. Have you tried this kit yet? What do you think?
