On myself I highlight with Maldives multiple by NARS, or MAC Apripeach Pearlizer or Hyperreal Foundation in Bronze Reflections. On myself I contour with NARS Ninotchka blush, MAC Blunt blush Metal Rock MSF depending on time of day/other face colors.
On other people I typically highlight with a multiple or a shimmery blush or pigment, or a liquid luminzer (i've got a few from sephora). ninotchka again for contouring, it's a very soft color, works for contouring most skintones.
Good color correctors for me are the Blend, Adjust and Correct foundation primers from smashbox. The green one (adjust) counteracts redness, the peachy one(blend) evens out skintone, and the purple one (Correct) will cancel out any sallowness (too much yellow) in the skin. They come in full and travel sizes. i have the travel sizes for now.

HIghlighting: for a subtle highlight I use either Strobe cream or Moisturegleam depending on the sking tone MSF's for a bolder highlight or pigments like Pink Opal or Vanilla.
Contouring: either a darker foundation shade for subtle contouring or Blunt blush or Espresso eyeshadow for darker skin and Cork eyeshadow or bronzers for lighter skintones.
Correctors - I use the MAC color correctors sparingly as most flaws can be corrected without them. But it's good to have them in the kit just in case you have an extreme case.
