So with contouring being my newest of obsessions, I had been eager to get my hands on the Mac Prep & Prime highlighter pen and I have definitely not been left disappointed! After reading up on so many different ways to contour I was left a little overwhelmed with the amount of choice I had, however this highlighter was a product I had seen crop up more than once and as a huge MAC fan I decided to give it a go.
The pen in itself is glorious, I'm not sure if it was the sparkly packaging or the bright white tip, I almost didn't want to ruin by twisting the top, but whatever it was I was hooked straight away! I went for shade Light Boost as it had an almost yellow tint to it, which do not fear will not make you look like Lisa Simpson! It does however, really highlight the specific areas of your face even if used over the top of your foundation, which can be hard to achieve with other highlighters.
I find this works best when applied under my eyes, along the bridge of my nose, the top of my forehead and on my chin and when combined with Benefits Boing in Shade 05, these two make the ultimate power couple. As my contouring days are still very much in the early stage, I will hold off on the how to photos for now, but watch this space as I hope to be a contouring pro in no time, with this little number as my very handy sidekick!
And as I was in MAC I couldn't resist topping up on my favourite Bronzer in Medium. This matte bronzer can be applied both for a subtle or deeply bronzed look. When contouring, I always like to go over the darker sections with this bronzer as it creates even more definition whilst giving me a sun-kissed glow.
