Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Kit VS. Cover FX Contour Kit

I bought the ABH Contour Kit in Light and immediately regretted it. First of all it's too dark for me in general. The highlighting colors don't do much for me and none of the contour colors work for me either. Now this could be my fault because I heard they're coming out with a Fair option later on. But I think even disregarding the fact the shades don't work for me I still don't like this palette. Also it's EXTREMELY warm toned. When it comes to contouring that's definitely not what you want. I think it almost makes me look dirty. The creams are also extremely thick and seem to move around my foundation when I try to blend it out and break it up which ends up looking terrible.


Now on the other hand I received a sample of the contour kit from Cover FX in one of my Sephora orders and after using it, I'm completely in love. The creams are so smooth and glide one effortlessly. The N60 contour shade is perfect for those as pale as I am. Have I mentioned I'm in love? The N20 highlight also works perfect for a triangular shape under my eyes without making me look too pale as other highlights have. It's definitely worth it to at least go to Sephora and have them try it on you! I'm sure you'll fall in love too. (I don't have pictures of this one since I only had a sample.)

I'd completely recommend the Cover FX one over the ABH one any day.

  1. What foundation shade are you? I'm thinking of getting cover fix but I'm an NC25 in Mac and I'm not sure what shade to get and we don't have Sephora in England :(
