Smashbox Contour Kit

If you're new to contouring, where you use light/dark shadows to create a more defined face, the Smashbox contour kit helps you shape your face effortlessly. The kit comes with a contour shade, a bronzer and a highlighter. Use the contour shade to define your cheekbones, starting from above your area where the cheekbone begins, with an angled brush. Next, use the bronzing shade to add more colour to the contour. Finally, use the highlighting shade in a triangle shape above your cheekbones, on your cupid's bow and underneath your eyebrows to create a contoured look. You can also use a smaller brush to contour your nose. The contour kit is available in two shades- the normal kit and deep, which is suitable for darker skintones.

The primary foundation product is the Studio Skin 15 hour wear hydrating foundation, which has medium to buildable coverage, so you can control how much you wear.

Popular questions about Smashbox

Which Smashbox products are vegan?

According to a forum member who contacted Smashbox back in 2010, a lot of their popular products such as primer and powder is vegan, meaning that they contain no animal products including carmine, which comes from insects. You can see the list here. Of course, the list is old so it is best to double check with Smashbox.

How to use Smashbox Photo Finish?

Apply a small amount of the primer to clean and moisturised skin using your fingers. Follow it with your favourite foundation. You can also use the primer on wet or dry hair to smooth frizzy areas.

Are Smashbox Cosmetics Non-Comedogenic?

Non-comedogenic cosmetics are helpful for sensitive skin which is prone to acne. They are oil-free so won't clog your pores and cause bad skin. The majority of Smashbox products don't contain oil so they could be considered to be Non-Comedogenic. Always check the ingredients or reviews before purchasing.
