Coastal Scents 6 Contour and Blush Palette Review and Swatches

I saw this 6 Contour and Blush Palette from Coastal Scents on youtube by some of my favorite makeup artists during many tutorials and I really wanted to get it. You know that feeling when you see something that you really want to have, but you resist because you already have a lot. You ignore it and move on. But when you keep seeing it again and again and again, then something inside you keep forcing to get it and just won't leave you alone until you get that thing. So finally I bought it and now I have been using it  for the last two weeks with a big satisfaction.

The packaging of this palette is matte black in color which is quite sleek, sturdy and beautiful. I bought this palette for its beautiful variety of colors . It is quite versatile as it has all face, blush, contouring and highlighting powders in one palette. All of these powders are 100% matte and are quite pigmented. All of the colors can also be used as eye shadows. It has 6 different color powders in it , 1 dark brown contouring powder, 1 white highlighting powder, 2 face powders one is light pink and one is skin tone color and 2 beautiful bright pink blush colors.

The dark brown contouring powder is not as scary on skin, as it looks in palette if used with a light hand and is actually very easy to blend. I am not so much into contouring but I am learning the technique to use the contouring powder. The white highlighting powder is also great. You can make it as intense or subtle as you want. I use it as highlighter on the top of my cheekbones and in the inner corner of eyes. The two pink blushes look beautiful on my skin color and would look beautiful on a ton of different skin tones. Here are swatches of all colors with and without flash.
