Too cool for school highlighter review năm 2024
Second in row in the popular Artclass by Rodin is this highlighter. It’s not as known as Shading but it is definitely more known than Blusher (which is the last one I will be talking about). Show PackagingStarting with the box, as usual, it has the same design as the Shading one, except the edges. The box is light baby pink with brown and white lettering. Once again, we’re getting two tips in English. The casing has, again, the same design as the box. Once again, when you open the lid, you see there your beautiful highlighter with three different shades. It’s also protected with a plastic sheet. You’re getting a nice sized mirror which is always a good thing. ProductI’ll start with the shades. Here are the swatches (one swipe with finger). As you can see, the swatches and the colours are absolutely stunning! I can’t even describe how beautiful they are. It is very reflective and on the face, you can either apply it lightly and have it looking very natural or you can go heavier with it. The shades are just amazing, I fell in love with them immediately after swatching them. The light and the medium shades are great and look amazing on my skin. The dark on is a little too dark and you can see it on my complexion, however, that doesn’t stop me! I usually apply this shade on my cupid’s bow to make it pop a little bit. OverallWe all know that Korean makeup is mainly focused towards the fair skintones and this isn’t any exception. However, if you are pale as me or a little bit darker, I’m sure you will love this palette as much as I do. It became my holy grail immediately.

Too Cool For School Artclass By Rodin HighlighterSpecial Makeup Item! Luminizing makeup with Flash effect. Highlighting makeup with luxurious gloss. Perfect strobing makeup with colors. DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION-Contour your new face line at the hands of the greatest sculptor, Rodin Strobing face technique that adds gleaming lights. If you’ve been around the K-beauty block for a while, you’ll know about the Too cool for school contour pact which comes with three shades in one compact. Within the past year or so, they came out with a blusher and highlighter as well. Just this past holiday, they came out with a palette with three of these all in one slim packaging for around 30,000 won if I’m not mistaken but the sizes are a bit smaller. I would have totally picked it up but I already had all three of the full sizes coming my way (courtesy of Jolse) so I opted out on it. Now that I finally have them in my hand, let’s see if they are worth the hype or not shall well. Let’s go go go! By Rodin: “Auguste Rodin (1840-1917), a pioneer of modern sculpture, was known for his vivid depiction of human expressions and emotions through sculptural works which at the time were viewed as mere ornaments, and developed sculptures into an independent art form. His artwork captured the expressive details as well as the physical vitality of the human figure. Too cool for school artclass by Rodin, a product inspired by Rodin’s world of art, is designed to aptly render subtle outlines and accentuate distinct features.” Limited edition/ Permanent?: Permanent Description of product: “A compact peachy-blush palette with 3 colour combinations to add a lovely flush to your cheeks.

Color/ Pigmentation: I was honestly scared these wouldn’t be pigmented since K-beauty isn’t really known to be super pigmented. For pale skin girls like me, I do really enjoy K-beauty contours since they work very well with my skin colour and usually is subtle but natural. Too cool for school’s contour pact is famous for a reason. Mixed together, you get a nice light brown with a slight grey undertone which aids in a very natural looking contour. All the shades don’t have any orange warmth to it which is ideal if you want a contour that looks supernatural. No muddy mess here! Texture/ Finish: For the contour and blusher, they have the same consistency. They are both matte with no types of shimmers and they aren’t like your typical powder blushers. Just like how they described it as it doesn’t seem to look dry even if you “accidentally” use too much. I air quoted accidentally because I have a heavy hand when it comes to blush and contour keke. To the touch, it almost feels chalky but silky at the same time. It is quite weird and I suspect maybe there is mica or something in it. The highlighter, on the other hand, is completely different from the contour and blush. Imagine those super shimmery shadows but in a giant pan form. This kind of reminds me of the first-ever eyeshadow palette I bought long ago at Claire’s at the beginning of my high school days. Back then, there wasn’t Sephora in Canada or any big brand make up other than the typical old lady department store brands like Estee Lauder, Lançome, Elizabeth Arden. The shimmery palette came in little strips and they felt kind of chunky but it swatched really nicely on the skin. Super duper shimmery, just like this one. Although the texture isn’t as gritty as that palette, this is kind of like the distant cousin that is in her 20’s. A little more refined but came from the same bloodline HAHA. I hope that made sense. This highlighter blended out looks very apparent since it has a mixture of fine shimmers and larger shimmers. If you are into more fine shimmer highlighters like Becca’s highlighters, Mac’s soft and gentle, you may not like this. I personally don’t mind it if I’m in the mood for it but most likely won’t be wearing it much for the day time since I don’t enjoy large shimmers on my face. Lasting power: The contour lasted about 6 hours before fading, blusher was also around the same life span. The highlighter kind of disappeared around the 4-5 hour mark but then again, when it was applied with a brush, you didn’t get much “glow” rather then shimmery chunks on the face anyways. Do keep in mind I have dry skin, almost never use a primer and I like to leave my BB cushions un-powdered. Fragrance?: All of these do not have any type of fragrance to them. Con: -may not be pigmented for some people -highlighter could use less chunky shimmers Repurchase?: Contour most likely yes. Blusher is a maybe. Highlighter meh. Stars given out of 5: Contour: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Blusher: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highlighter:⭐️⭐️⭐️ Overall thoughts: Contour: If you are in the market for a foolproof contour, or you are just starting out, I’d highly recommend this contour “kit” but that is if you are my skin colour or maximum two shades darker then me. It contains three shades which is great for mixing and the price is really affordable. Like what you saw up above, it gives the skin a very natural look without looking orangey or muddy. Overall I really do like this contour and can see why this product is one of their best selling products. Two thumbs up and highly recommend it. Blusher: Although I do like the formula which prevents heavy handed people like myself from overdoing their blush, this blush isn’t super special hence the average score of 3/5 stars. I do like how there are three shades so if I’m traveling and want to pack light, this will be a product I’d consider bring with me since it is a easy and no brainer type of product. Again, I’d also recommend this to beginners since it is fool proof and you get three shades in one. This along with the contour kit would be great starter products to work with and for $17 and your getting three shades, that the same price as one Mac blush. You do the math. Bottom line, overall not a shabby product but I prefer other blushes that I have in my collection. Highlighter: This highlighter kind of reminds me of the Bobbi Brown shimmer brinks but this one from Too cool for school has a touch more larger shimmer particles. On the skin it looks decent but if you were to have any type of unevenness or dry patches, doom. DOOM I tell you. Not my most favourite highlighter out there but the “darkest” shade, the rose gold colour, GORGEOUS. I most likely will just use this as eyeshadows. I’d say get it if you don’t mind slightly larger shimmers but for me, this product would be a pass. What do you guys think about these products from Too cool for school?
