Australis AC On Tour Kit Review

The contour shades in this are very dark. They should have at least one shade that's more suited to pale people. I can use 2 of the colours if I'm light handed but the third I will never use as it too orange and too dark. I feel this is suited to only those with medium to dark complexions. The highlight shades are all nice though so I will use it for highlighting only. The consistency is very powdery but it is easy to blend. I will only repurchase if they make a better colour range.

This is a very affordable kit for those wanting to try weather your new to contouring and highlighting or a pro, you only need a little bit on your brush to set you a long way with 3 highlights and 3 contouring colours catering for night time or day time looks. I love this product and highly recommend

I find the Australis AC on tour contour kit very affordable and easy to use! And recommend it to people who are new to trying contouring and highlighting! They are very pigmented and only need a little bit to build the colour up. Overall a great affordable product suitable for any occasion to frame any face shape :)

At first, I was super excited when I first got my hands on this. It was like liquid gold in terms of trying to find one when I was in Australia earlier in the year. But as soon as I tried it, I was definitely disappointed. It was not worth the hype at all!

Let's start with the positives - we all like a good positive! For me, there was only two things that I loved about this. Firstly, the price. At $21.50 for a contour kit, you are pretty much making money. I've seen kits similar for far more (and there is probably a reason why). It's a great price!

Secondly, the only other positive was the packaging. I love Australis' new look - it's got swag. So sleek and pretty!

Alright, now my two positives are over.. here's we go with the negatives. First of all, the colours are all wrong. I feel like it's far to warm and dark for anyone (well, any pale Snow White-esque person at least). And what the hell am I suppose to do with that weird peachy colour anyway? Or those super dark browns?!

Second, it's so chalky and hard to blend! No matter how hard I try, I end up looking like bad drag Kardashian. I've tried all different brushes (and even went in with a dry brush). It justs sits on top of the skin and does not want to move. Ugh. And there is so much fall out! SO MANY FALLOUT!

And thirdly, you cannot build the product up. No matter how little product you take, it's so super pigmented it's ridiculous. I can't believe I'm actually complaining about something being too pigmented, but I am. Contour powders should be a lighter pigment so you can build up to what you want!

I've tried to love it, but I just cannot. Maybe it's me, maybe it is the product but I do not think that I would recommend this to anyone.

I got this because everything I read said this was a dupe for the ABH contour palette, but at a drug store price and you wouldn't argue with an approximate $30 savings, right? I've had a few misses with this palette. You have to start so lightly and then build. One of the dark shades looks dreadful on my. But I do like the yellow highlight for under the eyes and the highlight for the top of the cheek bones, but I think next time I want a highlighter like that, I'll just buy some splurge products because these are just so damn powdery.

I've been looking for this infamous palette for so long, until one day I found it (the last one as well) in my local farmers. As soon as I paid I went straight home to play around with it, following all the directions on the back of the palette I came out very disappointed. The colours were a bit too dark for my skin tone - im very pale, but were also very chalky and very VERY hard to blend! I definetely would not recommend this palette if your looking for an effortless and well made contour palette, as it made my skin very muddy-looking. I can see how it would be good for beginners who are starting out with contouring as it is very affordable at $21.50 per palette.

I got this kit about a month ago as i saw a few makeup artist on inst raving about it.... im not a fan to be honest. I like the highlighter powder but not a fan on the dark powders. I find the colours very dark and even using a light dusting of it on your brush it almost looks dirty and are hard to blend. Would not reccommend this palette for someone with fair skin. Would work for a darker skin tone.

This product had a lot of mixed reviews! But it was also still raved about so I bought it during the big hype and read many reviews before I used it. I soon learned you had to be very light handed at application and even by hardly touching the pan with your brush and even tapping your brush aswel. I can see how it would look very muddy on certain skin tones but I say if it works for your skin just roll with it. Iv had some bad days where I forgot the light handed rule and looks like a muddy mess but other days my contour is so on point ! I wouldn't use this in a makeup artistary kit as you never know how the persons skin is going to react with it. Go for self use only :)

I brought this when I went to Australia and brought this, as I had heard it was good and cheap. I found that this was really good. I love it. I use this every day. Though I found that the powders went everywhere and had a lot of excess on the brush after a few swipes. I loved how on the back on the packaging it had a step by step guide showing you how to contour and highlight. I fount this really helpful as I am still learning. The packaging did feel like it would snap quite easily. I would buy this again.
