My Collection of Highlight and Contour Palettes

 I've really gotten into highlighting and contouring recently, and now own a small number of different palettes designed for this purpose. For those who deem it too tricky, it's actually dead easy, as long as you have a good buffing brush.

Here are the duos that I hold in my collection:

Illamasqua; Lorac; Face of Australia

And here are the swatches:

Illamasqua; Lorac; Face of Australia

and

Illamasqua; Lorac; Face of Australia

As you can see from the pictures, while the Lorac bronzer looks the darkest in the pan, it's actually the FOA one that looks considerably darker. For beginners, the Illamasqua duo may be the easiest to use, as it's quite mild, and has a nice subtle shimmer, as opposed to the others, which could make it hard to blend if you're a little heavy handed with it.

I am very happy with all three of them, however, and keep them out on a regular rotation. The Face of Australia duo is the cheapest, at $9.95, and can be found in Priceline. The Illamasqua duo is sold in Myer for $39 and the Lorac pan is the hardest to obtain, but can be found online.

Do you highlight and contour on a regular basis? What do you have?
