After reading this post, I think Dark/Deep Dark MSFN applied with a fan brush would work for me...but what about Refined Deeper Bronze? Would that be good to contour with for a nice glowy look?

I use Refined Deeper Bronze to contour and I'm NC43
Awesome, I'm about NC45, and I've never found a bronzer that shows up on me as contour. I didn't want to resort to using the darker MSFNs because my mum will steal them to set her foundation!
do you guys think blunt would be a good contour for an nc40? im looking for something matte.. or maybe the contouring duos that mac came out with. just dont know what shade
Yup yup...Blunt is a must have for contouring for me.....but i've recently now started using Sweet As Cocoa as a coutour...its beautiful!! I'm an NC50....im telling ya, try it! Gorgeous!
Ok, I've been using the brown side of the HIP Brazen duo for a contour shade....but I'm worried that this may be too dark...or that I'll look like I've got hyperpigmented cheeks, instead of a beautiful contour....I don't know my MAC shade but that's me in the avatar.....and here's a pic of the e/s in case you don't know...it's the brown side. I hope someone can help me out...maybe tell me a better shade...

i love this shadow by HIP its soo sweet. i use the brown side for my eyebrows but have not thought about using it for a contour. i dont see why it would not work for you just dont use a heavy hand. you only want to swipe it back and forth lightly below the cheek bone area!!
try blunt by MAC it should work just as good. I use Sable blush by Iman (walgreens has it) as a contour shade and find great results.
Like many others, Blunt blush is one of my staples.
I was actually put on to it by some other Specktra members and I'm so glad! I never did contouring prior to buy Blunt a few months ago. My made up face look so much sexier and sophisticated with some contouring.

For the eyes.. try MAC Folie, Saddle, Swiss Chocolate, or Embark.
i am looking for a contour shade and the MA suggested to me msf natural in deep dark. however, i cdnt really see much difference when he applied it for me. i still bought it though. shd i change it for sthg else? for reference, im NC 45 in studio fix.
i use emote, but i kno it was limited edition. im NC30/35. wedge eyeshadow is a gr8 contour colour but its an e/s- i use it cos as a contour colour as it doesnt show up on my eyelid which is darker than my cheeks!
