I REALLY am digging the blur trend (especially for my textured skin). But I just cant get into the blurred lip look (like we see on the Korean models). Actually, I cant even seem to pull that off! I like a defined & slightly buffed lip line.
Today I used both: the cool where I needed to contour, and bronzer where I might get bronzed from the sun. So I had shadow in grey to slim the face & bronzer to look sun-kissed! Works great! Try it!
I recently bought Flower Knows Embossed Highlight & Contour palette precisely because it is cool (gray) and not bronze because shadows are gray & not bronze, so it would be more natural. That it is, & for the nose & under the chin and around the forehead, perhaps it is better than bronzer—-but I do have to agree with Nina—-it is very pale & makes me look a bit washed out. Perhaps we need to work with both for contouring. I defer to Nina, the makeup artist (which I am not yet) to advise.

I’d say it works better on the lips in ‘real life’ when you use tones that are nude or close to skin color - but not everything works on everyone!
