So Clinique are going all out on the contouring front right now. When I received the Contour and Highlight Chubby Sticks, along with them came 4 palettes that also promise a sculpted look. Check out the new Clinique Sculptionary Cheek Contouring Palettes.

So what do we have here? The Clinique Sculptionary Cheek Contouring Palettes are ‘stay-true’ blush powders that promise to blend easily and build to you desired effect to emphasise your bone structure.

How to Use Clinique Sculptionary Palettes

You can use each shade separately to colour, contour or highlight, or you can swirl them together for a glowing blush look. So when I first looked at these I wasn’t entirely sure about how you would contour with these palettes in the traditional way, but here are some tips that really helped me get the best out of the palette:

• Use the an eye shader brush to sweep the highlight shade across the tops of cheekbones
• With a clean brush, apply the contour shade just below cheekbones
• Swirl a blush brush across all three shades and sweep across the apples of cheeks to blend

It actually makes a really nice eyeshadow too and the textures are really soft and beautiful.
