Australis AC On Tour Kit Review

I loooooove this contour pallet! The high lighting powder gives such a beautiful look, I use this everytime I wear make up! I purchased this product from Farmers. Wasn't to expensive, totally worth it!

This was my first ever contour kit and I'm still using it!!! I love using this to practise and wear all day! it's really blendable and has good shades!!! really want to try the cream one now!

My first ever contour kit and I love it I use it all the time and so far have brought 3 because I use it that often I love it

I love this product and use it all the time! The banana powder is life its so good for under eyes. The light powder is also amazing for highlighting other areas of the face. The dark colours are really good but very pigmented so you have to be careful when applying, not to put too much on the brush. Overall such a good product for someone on a budget! Would recommend!

this product was talked about by everyone around me, so when i got it for a present - was super excited! got it in the light shade yet the contour shades were far too dark, they went grey and clumpy on my face and no matter how much i tried couldn't make them work, the highlight shades were ok - but not enough to justify purchasing the palette again, now the palette is half empty as i have no use for the 3 contour shades - such a pity as i had heard this being talked about by everyone as a more affordable version of ABH - super disappointed and most definitely wouldn't recommend for those with light skin nor beginners

I was very kindly gifted this product from a lovely beauty review member. I was over the moon as I'd been so wanting to try it but my local Farmers never had it in stock. It was something I definitely would have bought for myself if I had ever seen it in store but it was so nice to have it arrive in my letterbox!

This is packaged pretty simply but if you have any other Australis products then it kind of matches. It is a very secure case that won't randomly open up and get product everywhere. There isn't a mirror or any accessories included with this but it does have a simple to follow instruction sticker on the back. If you've ever watched youtube makeup videos, you'd probably be quite familiar with how to apply contour and highlight anyway but it is nice to have that reference on the back.

There are six pans in this. I'm not sure of the size as it doesn't say on the package and the box is long gone. They are bigger than eyeshadows, but not as big as full size blush pans. Maybe more like travel size blush pans? Anyway on the top row is 3 highlight shades. There is a peach, yellow and a shimmery peach. The bottom row has 3 contours/bronzers, to me there is one cool tone, one warm tone and one more neutral tone. These powders are all very pigmented, especially the dark shades. They are also quite powdery though. I find they give you beautiful hand swatches but blending them out on your face can be a little tricky, because they are so pigmented and then they can go a bit patchy and almost blend away to nothing after that. The peach highlighter shades are ok, but I find the yellow to be quite chalky.

Whenever I used this, I never ended up liking my makeup. I just found the contour to be too pigmented to be easy to work with and to just make it look natural on my face. I also found the highlights too drying for my dry skin so they ended up sitting funny on my skin and looking cakey under my eyes.

I loved being able to try this out and it is an affordable option if you want to get into contouring. For me it didn't work but I know other people love it, so for around $20 it might be worth giving it a go. I plan to pass this on and I hope they can give this some love that I could not.

I enjoyed using this product as it was my first contouring kit I had purchased however the highlight colours seemed to run out pretty fast as I felt I had to use quite a lot for it to look good/noticeable. The darker colours however can be a bit muddy, so they need to be blended super well. I did like that it was easy to use and the wee diagram on the back was helpful.

When this product came out, I remember being really excited about it. However I didn't use it for awhile. During this time I heard a lot of mixed reviews, people either loved it or hated it. As a woman of colour, I started to doubt whether this product would work for me, because it is aimed at people with fair complexions. Darker colours have come out (YES!), but I haven't tried them yet. Recently I gave this another try, and i was pretty impressed with it. Unfortunately I cant use all of the colours (unless I use them as eyeshadows), but the ones that I tried weren't bad. I am a beginner to contouring, so I prefer a more natural look, and I think this product has been a great start to venturing into the world of contouring.
