    Fenty Beauty Contour Stick Review Amber Color Swatch

    I bought the Fenty Beauty Contour Stick about six months ago, and since then I have used it in so many different ways and I used it in summer when my skin was more oily. Also used it in winter when my skin was dry and sensitive. I tried it with light makeup days and with full glam looks. So I really feel like I know this product very well now. This is my honest Fenty Beauty Contour Stick review after real daily use, not just one try.

    When I first tried this contour stick, what I noticed right away was the texture. The formula feels very creamy and smooth. It glides on the skin without pulling or dragging. When I draw it on my cheeks or jawline, it never feels dry. I blend it with a brush or sponge and it melts into my foundation so easily. I never get harsh lines or patchy areas. This is something I really care about because some cream contours look nice at first but then they get muddy when you blend. With this one, the blend is always soft and natural.

    The pigment level is also perfect for me. It is not too strong. It is not too weak. I can use a little bit for a soft shadow or I can build it up for more definition and I love this because I do not like heavy contour. I want my face to look sculpted but still real. Even after six months, the formula did not dry out. It still feels just as creamy as the first time I used it. That is a big plus for a cream product.

    The shade I use is Fenty Beauty Contour Stick in Amber. This shade is one of the main reasons people love this product. Amber is a true contour color. It has a cool undertone, but it is not grey. On my skin it looks like a natural shadow. It does not look orange or warm or It does not look dirty. It just makes my face look more defined. I have light to medium skin, and Amber works beautifully on me. If you want that clean sculpted look instead of a bronzy contour, this shade is really perfect.

    I also tried this shade on bare skin and on full foundation. In both cases it looks good. When I use it with no foundation, it still blends nicely into my skin. When I use it over foundation, it does not lift my base. That is very important to me. Some contour sticks ruin your foundation, but this one does not.

    The packaging is simple and modern. I like the hexagon shape. It feels nice in the hand and it looks cool in my makeup bag. But I will be honest. The plastic feels a little bit cheap. It does not feel very luxury. It is light, which is good for travel. But I personally love makeup that feels heavy and high end. This one feels more basic. Still, it does the job and it is easy to use.

    For the price, I think the Fenty Beauty Cream Contour Stick is very fair. You are paying for the formula, not the packaging. And the formula is really good. A little goes a long way, so the stick lasts a long time. I have been using mine for six months and I still have a lot left. So in my experience, it is a good value.

    After all this time, this product has become one of my go to contour sticks. I use it for quick everyday makeup. I also use it when I want a more sculpted look. It always works and It is easy. It never looks heavy. Even though I wish the packaging felt more luxury, the formula is what really matters, and this formula is beautiful.

    If you are looking for a cream contour that blends well, looks natural, and is easy to use, the Fenty Beauty Contour Stick in Amber is a great choice. I am really happy I bought it, and I will keep using it in my daily makeup routine.

  • Dior Contour Stick Review Swatch

    Dior Contour Stick Review Swatch

    I have tried so many contour products over the years. Most of them promised a cool tone. Almost all of them turned warm on my skin. Some looked orange. Others looked muddy. Because of that, I was very curious about the Dior Contour Stick. I wanted to see if it really works or if it is just another luxury hype.

    The first thing I noticed was the color in the stick. It looks almost grey. Honestly, it scared me a little. I thought it might be too cool or too ashy. Once I applied it to my face, everything changed. After blending, the color turned into the most natural contour shade I have ever used. It looked like a real shadow on my skin.

    This contour does not add warmth. It adds structure. That is the biggest difference.

    Color

    Color is the reason why I fell in love with this contour stick. On the skin, it becomes a soft brown with a cool undertone. It does not pull orange and It does not pull red. It does not look dirty after blending. Everything stays clean and natural.

    I would describe this shade as a true contour color. It looks like the natural shadows of your face. Cheekbones look more defined. Jawline looks sharper. Nose contour looks soft and realistic.

    Compared to Westman Atelier Biscuit, this one is cooler. Biscuit is beautiful but warmer. On my skin, Biscuit can look more like a bronzer. Dior stays in contour territory. That is why I prefer it when I want a sculpted look.

    Drugstore contour sticks rarely give this undertone. Many of them are labeled contour but behave like bronzers. If you have been struggling to find a cool toned contour, this one feels like a relief.

    Formula, Texture, and Blending

    The formula is extremely creamy. Application feels smooth from the first swipe. The stick glides on the skin without pulling or skipping. Even on bare skin, it applies evenly.

    Blending is where this product really shines. I tried it with a brush, a sponge, and my fingers. All of them worked well. The contour melts into the skin instead of sitting on top. There are no harsh lines left behind.

    Working with this contour feels stress free. It does not set too fast. You have enough time to blend and adjust placement. That is very important for cream products.

    I did not enjoy Fenty Beauty contour sticks because blending felt harder. Those formulas felt drier on my skin. Dior feels completely different. Everything blends in seconds.

    Layering is also easy. You can keep it light for everyday makeup. You can build it up for stronger definition. The color never turns patchy.

    The finish looks like skin. It does not look greasy. It does not look heavy. Makeup still looks natural and fresh.

    Packaging, Price, and Overall Feeling

    Packaging feels very Dior. The stick looks elegant and refined. It feels good in the hand. Using it feels like a luxury experience.

    The amount of product inside is generous. You do not need much per use. This stick will last a long time.

    The price is high. That is true. Dior is not an affordable brand. Still, when I think about the quality, the color, and the formula, it makes sense. Finding a true cool toned contour is hard. Dior really delivers here.

    In drugstores, cool toned contour options are very limited. Most lean warm. Because of that, I think this product fills a real gap.

    For daily makeup lovers, this stick is worth it. For occasional users, waiting for a sale could be smarter. Either way, the quality is there.

    Overall Impression

    Using the Dior Contour Stick changed how I feel about contour products. The color finally looks right. Blending feels effortless. The finish stays natural all day.

    This contour does not fight with the rest of my makeup. It works with light makeup. It works with full glam. Everything looks balanced.

    If you are tired of orange contours, this one is worth trying. If you love cool toned makeup, you will appreciate it even more. Dior created a contour stick that actually understands what contour should look like.

    For me, it became one of those products I reach for without thin

  • Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lipsticks Review Swatch

    Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lipsticks Review Swatch

    Here is my Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lipsticks Review swatch.

    Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk lipsticks are iconic. I feel like they are everywhere. Almost every makeup lover talks about them, recommends them, or already owns one. For a long time, I was curious but also careful. Nude lipsticks can be tricky. Pinky brown shades can look amazing on one person and very different on another.

    So instead of guessing, I decided to try four shades properly. I used Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk, Pillow Talk Fair, Pillow Talk Medium, and Pillow Talk Deep. I tested them on different days, with different makeup looks, and in real life situations. After spending time with all of them, I finally understand why this collection is so popular.

    At the same time, I also learned which shades work best for me and which ones I enjoy less.

    The first thing I noticed with Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk lipsticks is comfort. These lipsticks feel very easy on the lips. They do not feel heavy. They do not feel thick. They also do not dry the lips.

    Pillow Talk Fair and Pillow Talk Deep are in the K.I.S.S.I.N.G formula. This formula is my favorite from Charlotte Tilbury. It feels creamy and soft. There is a slight shine, but not too much. Lips look smooth and healthy. Dry lines do not stand out.

    Pillow Talk and Pillow Talk Medium feel slightly different. They still glide easily, but they feel more classic. The finish is more satin than creamy. They sit nicely on the lips and look polished.

    None of these lipsticks feel sticky. None of them feel oily. Wearing them feels natural, like your lips but better. That is something I really appreciate in everyday makeup.

    Pillow Talk Fair Color Review

    Pillow Talk Fair is very light. On my lips, it looks almost pastel pink nude. The shade is soft and delicate. It gives a very fresh and innocent look.

    To be honest, it is a bit too fair for me on its own. Without lip liner, it can wash me out slightly. With a lip liner, it looks much better. The formula, however, is beautiful. This is one of the reasons I still enjoy using it.

    Pillow Talk Fair is perfect if you love very light nude lips or if you have a very fair skin tone. It also works nicely for soft makeup days. I like it when I want minimal makeup and a clean look.

    Pillow Talk Original Color Review

    Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk is the most famous shade in this range. This is the color everyone knows.

    On my lips, it looks like a balanced pink nude with a touch of brown. It is not too warm. It is not too cool. That balance makes it very easy to wear.

    This shade works with almost any makeup look. Soft eyes, strong eyes, no makeup makeup, or full glam. It always fits. That is probably why it is so popular.

    For everyday use, this shade is very safe. I reach for it when I do not want to think too much about my lip color. It always looks good and polished.

    Pillow Talk Medium Color Review

    Pillow Talk Medium is one of my favorites. This shade has more depth and richness compared to the original Pillow Talk. It looks more mature and elegant on the lips.

    On my skin tone, Pillow Talk Medium feels very flattering. The color has a warm pink brown tone, but it still looks natural. It makes the lips stand out more without being too bold.

    For daily makeup, this is one of the best shades in the collection. It looks great with neutral eyes. It also works beautifully with bronzed makeup looks.

    If I had to choose only one shade from this range for everyday use, Pillow Talk Medium would be a strong choice.

    Pillow Talk Deep Color Review

    Pillow Talk Deep surprised me. I expected to love it more than I did. The formula is beautiful. The K.I.S.S.I.N.G texture feels amazing on the lips. It feels creamy and comfortable all day.

    Color wise, however, it pulls quite warm on me. On my lips, it looks more brown than pink. Because of that warmth, it is not my favorite shade in this range.

    That does not mean it is a bad color. It would look stunning on warmer skin tones or on someone who loves brown nude lips. For me, it feels a bit too warm.

    I still enjoy using it sometimes, especially with warmer makeup looks, but it is not the shade I reach for first.

    Overall Impression

    If you love pinky brown nude lipsticks, this collection is worth exploring. My personal favorites are Pillow Talk Medium for everyday use and Pillow Talk Fair for the formula alone. Pillow Talk Deep is beautiful but a bit too warm for my taste.

    These lipsticks feel easy, elegant, and wearable. They are the kind of products you reach for without thinking. For me, that is always a good sign.

    If you want one lipstick that works with almost everything, start with Pillow Talk or Pillow Talk Medium. If you love a softer look, Fair is lovely. And if you enjoy warmer, deeper nudes, Deep might be perfect for you.

    Packaging and Overall Look

    The packaging is classic Charlotte Tilbury. The gold case looks elegant and luxurious. It does not feel heavy, but it also does not feel cheap.

    The lipstick clicks shut properly, which I like. It feels secure in a makeup bag. The design is simple but iconic.

    Visually, these lipsticks feel like luxury makeup without being too flashy.

    Wear Time and Comfort Throughout the Day

    These lipsticks have good longevity for creamy formulas. They are not transfer proof. They will fade after eating. That is normal.

    What I like is how they fade. The color wears off evenly. Lips still feel soft. There is no dryness or patchiness.

    Reapplying is easy. The formula layers nicely. It never looks heavy or cakey.

    Overall Impression

    Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk lipsticks deserve their popularity. The formulas feel comfortable. The colors are wearable. The packaging feels luxurious.

    My personal favorites are Pillow Talk Medium and Pillow Talk Fair, mainly because of how they feel on my lips. Pillow Talk is a great classic option. Pillow Talk Deep is beautiful but a bit too warm for my taste.

    If you love pinky brown nude lipsticks, this collection is worth trying. Each shade offers something slightly different. There is a reason so many people keep coming back to these lipsticks.
