There comes a point in life where tasks and processes just
become part of one’s routine: we forget to savour the process, to appreciate
the end result. A rut, if you will. And a rut I did enter when it came to
contouring. Once a wonderful, unique idea, contouring just became much of a
muchness. It happens. Product just fulfil their job spec, indeed they do it
very well, but a little freshness, a touch of the novel, and a process steps back to being a joy. Enter the Becca
Lowlight/Highlight Perfecting Palette.
Now, this will never replace my Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting Powder, but it sure as hell sits nicely alongside it, works in tandem, and adds a little extra. Unlike the Sculpting Powder, the Becca sits slightly warmer on the coolness scale – adding a tad more warmth to the face. Still sculpted, still shadowy, just slightly warmer – more bronze, if you will, perfectly complemented by a peach-gold highlighter that just screams WOW. The two together, built on the skin are just the thing for a night out – deepen the colour further by using the Kevyn Aucoin in the very hollows of the face.
