NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Wonder Stick, Face Shaping & Contouring Stick - Fair

I’ve been trying so hard to find a cool toned contour stick and everything I bought was too red or orange or bronze looking. This contour and highlight stick is so amazing! The contour is cool toned and I got the shade “01 fair” and it’s perfect! I think it would work for anyone from a fair complexion to medium complexion. I’m not even that fair and it looked good on me. And the highlighter is so pretty and so pigmented! I’m happy with this product and you can’t beat it for $11. It definitely feels far better than an $11 makeup item. Also, I specifically chose the shade “fair” because of how cool toned it looked online. And I usually don’t buy anything in fair. So again , I think it would work for many different complexions. And the formula is so creamy and easy to apply. Nothing is worse than getting something that is dry and hard to apply. But this is very creamy.

I am very fair-skinned with cool undertones, and I struggled for years to find a product that wasn't orange on my skin. I bought this stick in the shade 'Fair' on a whim a few years ago, and I am thrilled with the results. The contour is cool-toned and creates a very natural shadow that accentuates my cheekbones without bringing a color that is unnatural to my skin tone; I've even gotten compliments on it, which is a real testament to the product because my contouring ability is quite limited. I love the highlighter, as well. It gives a great and very natural glow that is appropriate for any occasion, including work, and I find myself reaching for it frequently. The formula of the stick is very creamy and easily blendable--in fact, I prefer to blend the highlighter with my fingers, though I do use a brush for the contour. The stick also lasts an extraordinarily long time, as well (I think I've had mine for a year now), making the product very cost-effective. If you are looking for a cool-toned contour that won't turn you orange, this is it!

I like this contouring stick. Blends well, the color works for my skin. It might be breaking me out tho, the area that I applied it to, i had some pimples there the next day.....

Good product, but be careful it may break.

I’m torn between two sides. When I first saw this on Amazon I was excited. With the exception of eye shadow I’m not a fan of glitter makeup. These are not glitter! So I decided to go ahead and buy four sticks. I love Nyx Makeup so what could go wrong. They arrived super fast and were packaged well. I opened up all four for an immediate inspection and chose one to use the same day. First I tried the darker shade for the contour. Very easy to control, super rich and creamy. The contour side glides on perfectly and blends super smooth with the rest of my makeup. Next are the highlights. I flip the stick around and begin with the center of my nose. Immediately I realized something is not quite right. The stick is picking up my foundation and my correcting shade! Now instead of a highlight of brightness, I have red blotches on my nose! OMG!! Now what? I try wiping off the highlight side (foundation and correcting colors) and give it a try on my forehead but now it’s doing it again! Ugh! I try wiping it off on a paper towel but I’m depositing more product on the paper towel than on my face! Another thing strange is that it feels greasy. Almost as if the highlight side is a gooey greasy stick of butter. I’m not sure what if anything I am doing wrong with this stick. I’m totally in LOVE with the contour side. Seriously. It’s so easy to use and I would recommend this product if not for the highlight side. It’s not a total waste of money but I didn’t buy it for only one side to work and one not. I’m hoping that I can return the other three within the return window. I guess we’ll see as only time will tell. I hope you have better luck than me.

Very easy to use

Honestly think this works just as good as expensive stuff for contouring and I don't mind spending more for a good product but for this this seems just fine very good actually

NYX took this one away and replaced it with the one with the blue packaging, which has a different formula for the brown contour!! it’s ORANGE. So glad this is the original amazing brown color for my eyes :)
