happy Halloween! I hope you get sufficiently spooked today as well as likewise eat enough candies for a nice sugar high.
Today’s job pan product is the NYX Powder blush in Taupe #PB11:
It was not by accident that this product is featured today – if you’re in a pinch for ghoulish looking hollowed out cheeks for a costume, perhaps a contouring shade such as this might help!
This is the old version of the NYX Taupe – there is a new version when NYX replaced the whole blush line with the HD Blushes. It was a source of heated discussion when NYX reformulated this specific colour since it’s a much cherished shade. There are great deals of opinions about which version is better: this video shows a comparison between the old versus new versions. She discovered the new one less pink, as well as one more person found the new one warmer, one more person discovered the new formula drier, however yet one more person discovered the new powder to be much smoother.
Not my picture – she discovered the HD powders not to blend as nice as the original. Kilde.
Who to believe? Unfortunately, I do not have the new HD one to compare right here for you (maybe one day). What I do understand is that the original version, the one I own, has a nice awesome undertone for contouring. Remember: contouring products should mimic natural shadows which is greyish in tone. Bronzers in gerneral are not great for contouring, they’re usually as well orange. You want something with a taupe / grey rather than orange / brown tone.
Both the old as well as new version phone calls this a blush however it’s definitely a contouring colour. NYX now likewise offer a whack of contouring products (including the Highlighting as well as Contouring pro combination which I won from Sandie’s stock giveaway a while back – still requirement to evaluation that!) so I’m not sure why they kept this product as part of the blush collection. Det er forvirrende.
There is a slight sheen to the powder however it’s not shimmery.
This powder applies smoothly – it’s not as well extremely pigmented however I don’t mind since I want the contouring impact to be subtle. It’s extremely simple to blend out so there are no harsh lines.
Of all of the beauty routine “extras” such as highlighting / strobing, bronzing, etc, contouring is the thing I seldom do (I mentioned this in my 7 Deadly Sins Tag!). I do have naturally high cheekbones (not a boast, just describing my deal with structure) so I don’t requirement to contour. But, since contouring almost daily, I do believe that doing this additional subtle step adds a nice definition to my face. I’ve been utilizing my reliable Anna Sui deal with clean each time:
Since many of you asked about different contouring brushes in my Nars Kabuki Ita clean post, here’s a lot that I own for comparison. I categorize contour clean into 2 types:
Flat contour brushes
These are fantastic for producing a directly line, particularly for the hollows of the cheeks.
Ecotools Deluxe fan clean – before the availability of actual flat contour brushes, fan brushes produced a nice soft diffusion of contour colour in the cheek hollows. this is super big as well as has medium density.
Anna Sui deal with clean – my favourite clean for cheek contouring – the perfect mix of firm bristles as well as diffused edges to lay down precise placement as well as to blend.
Everyday Minerals Itahake clean – method as well dense as well as can’t blend worth crap. Makes a harsh line as well as then you’re stuck with it! This clean is slated to be purged.
Nars Kabuki Ita – not worth the money! See my evaluation as well as comparison to a $2 knock off here.
L to R: Anna Sui deal with Brush, Nars Kabuki Ita, Illamasqua clean Up
Illamasqua blush Up clean – it’s the most compact, blunt as well as has the shortest bristles of all the ones I own. This produces a sharp line as well as is truly great for blending out cream products (I own the Illamasqua cream blush in Zygomatic, which is a gorgeous contour shade).
Round contour brushes
These are fantastic for contouring around the forehead, hairline, jawline, etc. I believe these would be as well big for nose contouring – you’re much better off utilizing an eye shadow blending clean for that purpose.
Quo Contour clean – this was my very first contour clean as well as it was fine of what it is. now that I understand better, it’s rather scratchy as well as it sheds a lot.
Charlotte Tilbury Powder & Sculpt clean – the newest addition to my contour clean stash. It’s a bit floppy to do targeted contouring however the directed tip with the bulbous shape is fantastic for diffusing colour. I like it for forehead contouring. It’s likewise extremely soft so it’s much better served with very pigmented products.
Real methods Contour clean – this doesn’t pick up powder pigment as well well. I only utilize this for high pigment powders – mainly blushes.
MAC 109 little Contour clean- Det er så godt stumt for presis plassering av kontur, så vel som det føles skrapete på huden. Jeg bruker dette til pulverformige rødmer som har lav pigmentering.
Tilbake til Nyx Powder Blush i Taupe – Jeg vil ikke vurdere det siden det ikke er tilbudt noen form for mer, men jeg virkelig liker det er fantastisk undertone som et konturprodukt. Og basert på hva jeg har sett på nettet, vil jeg foreslå inspeksjon av den nye HD-rødmen i Taupe. Det er et rimelig valg for et konturpulver som ikke er så godt oransje eller ashy.
Den er laget i Kina (P.R.O.C. = Folkerepublikken Kina) som de fleste av NYXs produkter.
I interessen for å prøve å utnytte dette produktet for jobbpanne (som om jeg noen gang vil slå Pan på denne tingen! Jeg har hatt det i mer enn 5 år, så vel som vaffelmønsteret ikke engang har brukt flatt Likevel), jeg har begynt å utnytte dette som en kontur for øyenskyggene mine, blander seg ut dypere nyanser i min krone. Det fungerer også utrolig for det formålet, men jeg har ikke gjort en pute i vekten:
Jeg er fortsatt pliktsvennlig utnyttet hvert eneste produkt i min jobbpanne, 5 dager i uken for arbeidsflaten min. Jeg er ikke sikker på hvorfor lastpulveret ikke modifiseringen i forrige uke!
