Hi all! I have been trying to upgrade/revamp my makeup collection. I have been trying to practice contouring and filling in eyebrows. My question is with the products I have, should I be good to go, or should I purchase better products?
Here is what I have been experimenting with
Contouring:
Benefit Hoola. This seems to be the best so far.
Benefit High Beam. Seems to be lost in the mix of everything.
Physicans Formula Glow Boosting Pressed Shimmer Bronzer. I know I am not supposed to use bronzer but I try anyways...and this stuff basically is just shimmer. Not very pigmented at all.
I have other blushes that have been working great. I have also looked up UD contouring palette and found that the Ulta contouring palette is just $5 right now. Suggestions on what I should do?
Eyebrows:
I have thin, blonde eyebrows...and use,
Benefit Gimme Brow
Anastasia Brow Wiz
Ulta Brow Pencil
various eyeshadows to fill? I tested the Anastasia powder and liked that but was not sure if it was worth the $23. Suggestions?
Thanks all! Much appreciated :)

The benefit bronzer is actually very very close in color to my contour kit. It's not your typical orange or red looking and has no shimmer in it. I personally think that's fine for a contour with a light hand (but people freak about the bronzer as a contour thing on BL so watch out lol) however I would still try and get a contour kit because there's so much more to it- more contouring options. With the benefit one you're limited to a bronzer and that's it.

I forgot to mention stila kitten and Mary Loumanizer are my faves for highlights! Highlighters are so addictive haha. And I second the Anastasia brow products too. Good stuff!!

I agree with Hannah!
Anastasia DipBrow I have been loving lately. Too Faced Candlelight is a really nice highlight.
I'd try the IT Cosmetics contour palette or the Anastasia one. (I didn't know Ulta had one!)

For contouring you could use the NYX blush in taupe ($5ish) or the Kevyn Aucoin sculpting powder ($44 😁). The Benefit Hoola is a great choice though.

I'm after contour highlight products myself and the ones which I've put on my list are Kevyn Aucoin sculpting powder, sculpting brush and celestial highlighting powder.
