Filmstar Bronze Glow - Contour Palette

In a league of its own!

Pricey - yes, but it's worth it! Firstly the bronzer is a medium-brown with warm undertones and a slightly gold hue to it. For me it's a game changer, it's so smooth and unlike the vast majority of bronzers I've used before, the quality is just in a league of its own. Also it's not super-pigmented, meaning I can apply lightly and build-up as needed - just as good for day wear as it is building it up for a dramatic evening look. The highlighter here is a beautiful orange-gold, slightly shimmery shade and again the quality is fantastic, you can actually see the difference in both when comparing to an averagely-priced highlighter or bronzer. Great for highlighting cheekbones, under brow area and also inner eyes. Time-wise I get around 7-8 hours from both the bronze and the highlighter before they start to fade. I can see this lasting a long time. For reference I'm nowhere near the bottom of the pan yet, despite having this in heavy rotation (almost daily use). Would be fantastic if this could be brought out in more shades as I feel it would appeal to a much bigger audience. For example my work colleague (roughly NC35) who got me onto this doesn't use it in winter when she is at her most palest, as she falls somewhere between the 'dark/medium' and 'medium/light' but not squarely into either. For me dark/medium is just perfect all year round! ~ My Sephora Top 7 must-have list ~ (My top 7 must-have beauty products of all time, focusing mainly on my purchases at Sephora) 1.

I got the shades light/medium

It’s actually a great product very pricy but worth it you do have to layer it a bit but I like that even more

I am very fair and this works perfectly for me. I use it everyday to contour. I also use it as eyeshadow when I want a natural look. The highlighter is also perfect for everyday use. If I am going somewhere and I want a “professional” looking highlight that isn’t too much this is the one I reach for.

Pleasantly surprised - needs more shades!

For reference I am a Dior face and body shade 3WP and Fenty liquid matte 270. I bought this the other day after testing in store (I could only apply/test it with a sponge so I went in hoping for the best). I’ve used CT products before such as the flawless filter, airbrush powder, shadows, and lip products so I was holding this to the same expectations as her other products I’ve become a fan of. The powders themselves are super soft so I recommend using a light hand to avoid any kickback. The sculpt shade is ashy toned but isn’t graveyard grey which makes it great for contouring medium-medium tan skin tones. It does have a faint amount of shimmer but when blended on the skin it is not noticeable. The contour is very subtle and requires building for a bold look so if you want something super intense and pigmented then this is not a product you should pick up. I personally didn’t mind since I go for more natural looks. The highlighter shade is OK. It is a little more dark for my skin tone than I would prefer. Not too dark to where it leaves a shadow on my cheekbone but to the point where it just matches my foundation color and leaves a pretty sheen instead of adding a a “highlighted” brightening effect. Nonetheless, I still think it looks beautiful and doesn’t leave a glittery finish. I do wish she came out with an in between shade or made the highlighter 1 to 2 shades lighter. Maybe even let us customize our own palette with refillable pans eventually. Overall I think it is a good product that I will be using in my day to day and during travel.

I love this set. The bronzer is light enough for my fair skin and is a beautiful sun-kissed glow. I LOVE bronzer for my pale skin and realized that my previous Hoola bronzer was just to dark for me (years later <facepalm>)

Love this for fair skin, highlight can be natural, and duo great for travel.

First of all the packaging is amazing- it’s glam without being tacky and has a nice weight to it. The contour is probably one of the best I’ve ever tried, it’s blendable and dark enough to make a difference but light enough to not be obvious. The highlighter is nice but it’s a bit glittery for my taste and for a casual/professional setting. With that being said I’m looking forward to wearing it out to a bar or party post lockdown. Overall I would recommend but I’ve got to take a star off for how glittery the highlight is.

Amazing

Absolutely love this bronzer!! Such a lovely colour

Ehhh

I love CT products and have been debating whether to get this or not. I finally tried it with a Sephora coupon/deal, but I ended up returning it because it's still not worth the price. I tried both the lighter and darker versions; the bronzer in the lighter one is TOO light and the highlighter is great, but if I'm paying a lot of money, I should LOVE both. I also enjoyed the bronzer in the darker one, but the highlighter was too orange. For reference, Golden Medium 14 in Bare Minerals and G50 in Cover FX Power Play.
