AMW Reviews: Colour Collection Bianca V. Sexy Silk Blush and Contour Duo (Sweetheart)

Hi everyone!  I am sharing my thoughts on Bianca Valerio's Sexy Silk Blush & Contour Duo from Colour Collection.  I am a fan of "contouring" on special occasions but on a daily basis, I find contouring a bit "too much" and "too tedious!  Don't you agree?

Since receiving this, I've been doing simple contouring on a daily basis (even when I'm just working from home!  LOL)  Because I find the packaging simple yet very easy to use!  I mean seriously, seldom can you find contour and blush powder housed in a round, slim compact!

Bianca Valerio, aside from being a host, is also a professional makeup artist, so I guess, she knows what WE want right? :) 


Shade: Sweetheart 
Comes in cool pink blush and warm bronze-y contour powder

Pros
  • Packaging: Sleek and easy to tote around.
  • 2-in-1
  • The contour powder looks natural, not too orange-y.
  • The blush powder gives a natural glow as it has tiny amount of shimmers.
  • Both blush and contour powder aren't chalky.
  • Pigmentation is good.
  • A little goes a long way.

    Cons
    • Limited edition.
    • Not visibly available in stores.
    • Retouch is needed especially for users with oily skin.
    Overall
    Silky blush and contour duo that blends easily on skin.  Pigmentation is really good and it lasts around 4-5 hours before retouch for normal skinned users.

    Tips

    • Both blush and contour powder can be used as eyeshadow.
    • The contour powder is a nice "bronze" shade that works so well as a blush powder especially for fair skinned users.
    • Sweep blush at the apples of your cheeks with circular motion blending well.
    • As for the contour powder, a little goes a long way and blending is needed to prevent "obvious" harsh lines.
    • Both shades can be blended to create different blush shade.
    Will I repurchase?
    Yes. 

    To whom do I recommend this to?
    Daily blush and contour powder users!  This compact is very convenient to tote along.

    With just a few dabs, I apply my contour powder starting from my temple and use a separate fluffy powder brush to blend it out.


    As for the blush, I start at the apples of my cheeks with circular motion going towards the hairline.
