Hi girls,
I am a huge fan of contour products and I always finish my makeup with it. I love to contour the jawline, cheeks and the nose. I also have a wider forehead, so I like to use it there too. Also, it balances out the foundation so well. Here is an contour duo that I got from NYX in the shade “Cheek on Cheek”. Read on to know more about it.

My Experience with NYX Cheek Contour Duo Palette – Cheek On Cheek:
This one comes all embellished with these spikes on the case. I love it.
The duo is medium I think, the highlight is on the peachy side and not very apt for warm skin tone. It is slightly silvery and stands out on warm skin tone. You have to blend it really well. Secondly, I am more into golden tones of highlight, so this one is not my favorite so far. The color is beautiful nevertheless with some light shimmer to it. If you have pink skin tone, this might be for you. It blends well and is not that super pigmented.
Coming to the contour, this brown is earthy and perfect for brown skin tones. I love it. It stains the skin so well, but blending needs effort. I like how it is not powdery at all. Rather, it is on the pigmented side and you need very little. It is apt for warm Indian skin tones.
It lasts 3-4 hours on me since I have oily skin, but the color is perfect for me.
For the purpose of showing, I have not blended the highlight and contour on my cheeks in the picture.
Pros of NYX Cheek Contour Duo Palette – Cheek On Cheek:

- The contour powder is perfect for warm Indian skin tone.
- Stylish packaging.
Cons of NYX Cheek Contour Duo Palette – Cheek On Cheek:
- Could last better.
- The highlight is peachy so not very apt for warm skin.
- The brown contour might take a while to blend out otherwise might be prominent.
- No applicator or mirror provided with the case.
IMBB Rating: 3.9/5
Will I Recommend or Repurchase NYX Cheek Contour Duo Palette – Cheek On Cheek?
Yes, but this time I might choose the highlight shade carefully, something that is more golden. Try it if you have neutral to pink skin tone. It is a good duo to own.
