Review-Hard Candy Contour Trio

Hey everyone! <3 

Hope you all had a fabulous weekend! I'm back with another review! This time it is on the Hard Candy contour trio which consists of a bronzer, blusher, and "luminizer" or highlighter. 

Let's start with the bronzer. This bronzer is highly pigmented and matte which is perfect for contouring and adding warmth to the face. Unfortunately it is a wee bit too dark for my pastey skin but once I get some colour from the sun I think it will be perfect! The product blends very easily which is prefect for beginners just learning how to contour and bronze. 
Next is the blusher. At first glance the blusher looks just like any "cheap" blusher would look like-hot pink and hard as a rock. But upon application it is gorgeous! It blends effortlessly and gives a nice sheer glow to the face. It has a tad bit of sheen to it which is perfect for a dewy skin look and would be perfect for summer! I can't wait to use this once I have a nice tan going! Again this is very easily blended. I use a duo fibre brush and it works perfectly. 
Last but certainly not least is the highlighter. This is the first highlighter that I have owned, as I am still working to build my collection, but in my opinion it is gorgeous! It has a slight pink undertone which works well with my pale skin at the moment and it makes my skin look FLAWLESS! I am absolutely head over heels for this! My cheekbones look much more prominent and it just gives my skin a gorgeous glow. The product is easily blended with a brush or with your fingers. I like to use a fan brush or even a small blush brush. This highlight will be gorgeous for summer as well to just be worn alone with some foundation just to give that nice summertime glow to the face! 

Overall, I am super impressed with this trio and can't wait for the warm weather to get more use out of it! I strongly recommend this product to the aspiring MUA on a budget, or for those just starting to get into makeup and cosmetics. 

I hope you enjoyed this review and I hope it helped you out a little bit! If you have a specific product you would like me to review please leave your suggestion in the comments or if you have a specific post you would like to see then also please comment!
