I was initially excited about this, but none of the shades seem right for me. I'll stick with the products I already have. Enjoy, ladies.

what do you currently use for contour?

I use Notorious by Chanel or Mat Bronze by MUFE. Some people think it's a sin to contour with a bronzer, but I don't. Especially since that one is matte. It's perfect. Mac's Blunt blush is good for that, too.

Yeah. I think I saw something about it posted on youtube or maybe even here and a couple of people freaked. It was like OMG how dare you use bronzer to contour you freak. Oh well.
Using a shimmery bronzer to contour with would be bad, but using a matte one? Not so much.

Hey girls, I'm wearing Paloma (both the contour shade and highlighter) with Final Cut blush on my cheeks
. Btw I know you can't see it, but I also used Paloma + highlighter to hightlight and contour my eyes and loved it! For reference purposes I'm wearing Nars Pure Radiant moisturizer in St. Moritz (which is a bit light for me) and in Mac I usually wear NC42, the pic was taken in natural light with an iPhone 5S.

Just picked up the Gienah duo
and I am loving it so far!! The darker shade is great as more as a bronzer than contour for me but I could use it either way, my skintone is NC45 and I think this duo is a good match for my shade and deeper. The highlight shade however is WAYYY too dark for a highlight shade, I think it would be better to be used as a light contour instead. I used it today to contour my nose and I thought it worked perfectly as the shade wasnt too red/orange and looked more like a shadow and was very subtle. Killing 2 birds with 1 stone

Thank you! I tried on Gienah but it's better for a dramatic contour on me or when I'm tanned. and I have plenty of products that give me that effect so I'm really liking Paloma for a subtler look.

I was hoping they would get it, might get that contour brush though. The Nars store in Soho NY had it the other day. I'm sure you can phone order it if you don't mind paying full price.

My dad let me pick out a little something for my birthday since he's been so distracted with enjoying retirement that he forgot to order my "practical" gift. My Olympia should be here in a week. =) squee.
