MAC Sculpt and Shape Powder in Accentuate/Sculpt

My camera and lighting adds a little warmness, so, you know, grain of salt

I have the kind of cheekbones you have to invent whenever you apply makeup - "where would they be, if I had them?", and until now, I've never had a truly great powder contour. Sure, I have Illasmasqua's Hollow pigment, but that's a cream and I find that such a faff, especially with the amount of makeup and concealer it takes to make my skin look passable. Ain't nobody risking buffing that off with what's actually a pretty firm cream. I had been using Sleek's Face Contour Kit in Light, but whilst the highlight is flawless, the contour is actually pretty warm and dark for me.

Thankfully, the MACnificent Me Collection has brought us the MAC Sculpt and Shape Powder in Accentuate/Sculpt (not to be confused with the same products in the Sculpted Face collection, which don't carry this exact shade and wasn't out when I bought this). The contour is perfect for my NW20 complexion. There's no messing this up - it just looks completely natural. The highlight isn't shimmery at all (I'll add another on top after because girl's gotta glitter), but instead highlights in the artist sense (light brings things forward, dark pushes them away). It's actually fairly cheap for a MAC powder product ($44AUD), considering this is the larger face powder size, not blush sized.

If you're looking for a contour, I would definitely recommend checking this out.
