Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased this on Amazon back when it was fairly new and running out of stock immediately on Sephora, so I've had quite some time with it to write a knowledgeable review. I'll start by saying that it arrived nearly packaged and on time. There was no mess, cracks or fallout and all pans were securely in place. It is the legit Anastasia contour kit, and not a pallette of dupes at double the cost. The quality of shadows are a+. I've been using it almost daily and I still have yet to reach the silver of any pan, and it's been quite a few months. Another big plus is that if I did, the pans are completely replaceable in the event that I happen to run out. The colors themselves are quite nice and the pallette is multifunctional, you could easily use these as eyeshadows in case you forget to pack another pallette, so if there's s color you probably wouldn't use for contouring, it would still probably make a great crease/transitional color. That was the case for me with the middle bottom color which almost looks like a dark bone color, until I realized it actually makes the perfect contour color all on its own, as it naturally mimics the color of shadow with its cool tone, it works perfectly as my cheek contour without looking too dramatic. I even use the Brown pans sometimes to fill in my brows quickly when I don't have a half hour to invest in perfecting them with my dipbrow pomade. The yellow powder (top middle) works wonderfully as an under eye powder and to set concealer as yellow does wonders for waking up your face. The highlighter (top right) is actually one of my favorites in entire collection (I have many. Watts up, Nars albatross, hourglass, urban decay and many more) This is my go to highlight, but use lightly and build up as necessary because it's very reflective. Whether you're new to contouring or a pro, this is the kit for you. It's all powder, blends and builds easily and is lightweight as oppose to most cream colors which can also heavily clog your pores. And lastly, I paid for this out of my own pocket and my review is completely unbiased. If you found it helpful, please feel free to click "helpful."
