Wonder Stick

Here is a positive product review for the **NYX Professional Makeup Wonderstick**: "The **NYX Professional Makeup Wonderstick** is an absolute must-have in my makeup bag and a brilliant tool for effortless face sculpting\! This product is truly a dynamic duo that makes contouring and highlighting incredibly simple, even for beginners. The **dual-ended design** is pure genius, providing a sleek, darker shade for contouring and a lighter shade to instantly brighten and highlight, all in one easy-to-use stick. The formula is wonderfully **ultra-creamy and highly pigmented**, which means it glides onto the skin smoothly and **blends beautifully** and seamlessly for a gorgeous, natural finish. I love that the colors are **buildable**, allowing me to easily customize my look from a subtle daytime sculpt to a more dramatic evening glam. It’s an **incredibly affordable** way to achieve a professional-looking contour, and it's fantastic that the formula is also **vegan and cruelty-free**. If you're looking for a convenient, high-performing stick to sculpt and define your features with minimal effort, I highly recommend the Wonderstick\! It's an absolute contouring staple."

Works as it should and blends well when used correctly for contouring. It is super super creamy, though, so sometimes it's difficult the gauge how much of each you actually need. I have been able to adjust to what suits me best over a few uses. For a NYX product, I was expecting a little more of a higher quality, but the price isn't breaking the bank, so I can't complain too much. It blends well with a brush and a sponge, so if you use either, it will be an easy process. I like that they are both in either end for a quick touch up when needed and small enough to carry in my bag for everyday or nights out with friends.

I have warm fair skin and bought this stick in Medium after reading other reviews. The contouring shade looks just right on my pale skin and shows enough for a good overall effect, without being too dark. It's a tad warmer shade than other contouring products on the market, but by no means orangey looking. The stick shape makes this product so easy to apply exactly where you want to, it makes for a perfect contouring set for beginners or people who find contouring intimidating. After drawing the product onto my skin, it allows for enough time to blend it seamlessly with a contouring brush or fingers. I tend to use the Real Techniques Duo Fibre Contouring Brush, which works really well with it. The highlighting end of the NYX Wonder stick is subtle and more neutral in warmth making it suitable for most skin tones and also low on shimmer. Once applied it gives a subtle lit-from-within effect without looking too obvious. The lasting power is very good and I don't find I need to touch up my make up during the day. Overall I think this is a top product, so easy to apply and control it's almost fool-proof. Most days I tend to contour the hollows of my cheeks and on the other edges of my forehead and chin. On days I have more time or for more put together looks I use it for subtle contouring of my nose. As I have combination skin, I tend to use the highlighter mainly on the tops of my cheeks and sometimes on the bridge of my nose. For the price, this is an outstanding product that delivers on all levels. Definitely a product that is a make up bag must-have!

The darker end of the stick is great, but the lighter end was barely visible. I will continue to use the dark end for shading, but have had to buy myself a concealer in order to achieve the right effect with this, which is a shame.

Lovely product! Works wonders. 2 in 1!

Love this stick for a natural looking bronzer

Needed a new contour and thought as this is a handy 2in1 stick will save space in my make up bag. Pros - very creamy texture and glides onto face with minimal effort - easily blendable - having both the contour and highlighter in 1 tool is very handy for on the go - I use it after Foundation and find it does help to define my face to give it the 'sculpted' look Cons - for a contour i think it is not cool enough and it works more like a bronzer as it is warm. It will add shadow and help define your face but I don't think the formula is right to be labelled as a contour The product is great but if you want a true contour that is cooler, this is not for you. However if you dont mind using it as bronzer/highlighter to define your face, I would highly recommend.

As a beginner this contour stick made it easy to learn how to contour! It's super easy to apply, yeah it may be a tad greasy but it's easily fixed underneath powder, I would recommend using a translucent powder however as the highlighting disappears when using a coloured powder! The only downside to this though is that you don't get much in the stick and runs out really quickly I bought mine about 3 weeks ago and I'm already buying another, well worth the money for what it does and how easy it is to handle!:) Tip: if youre not using translucent powder it works best for me to dab with a brush I found than to blend it all in, the only part I would recommend blending/smudging whatever you want to call it is the cheekbone contour! Hope this helps :) Will most definitely continue to buy this product one after the other and will never stop using.
