The Missha Cotton Contour Shading has incredibly fine and soft particles that apply smoothly without clumping or creasing. The pigmentation is not too strong, so the color builds up easily and is easy to control the coverage. Cool-toned shading can sometimes look unnatural and create shadows on warm-toned skin, but this shade has a subtle reddish undertone that looks very natural. I'm currently using this product to shade my eyelids, cheeks, and chin, and I'm really loving it. I was looking for a single-color shading product that fits in the palm of my hand, without a mirror attached or being too large, and this is the perfect fit.
ConsThe product is made of plastic rather than magnet, and it does not close tightly, so it can open. The case is not particularly sturdy, which is a drawback.

There was hardly any yellow or reddish tones, and I was able to create a truly natural-looking shadow, which I really liked.
ConsThe fan size was small enough for contouring, but it was inconvenient to apply the product overall on larger areas like the cheeks and jawline using a bigger brush. If this same shade comes out in a slightly larger size, I would be interested in purchasing it again.

This particular color is a calm, shaded color that enhances the facial contours naturally without being too much. The product itself is thin and compact in size, making it convenient to carry, and the case is simple and clean-looking. The Smoky Hazel is a neutral gray-brown tone that is not too reddish or yellowish, making it good for naturally adding shadows. Many inexpensive shading products tend to be reddish or yellowish, making color selection difficult, but this product has just the right neutral tone, making it good for daily use. • For warm or neutral tones: It applies naturally like a shadow to shape the face. • For cool tones: While not extremely gray, it has almost no reddish or orange tones, so it can be used comfortably for cool tones as well. The product has a soft, cotton-like texture that adheres smoothly to the skin without clumping or lacking adhesion. The fine particles prevent any powdery appearance, and it blends easily without any clumping, even with multiple layers. The matte finish allows for a cleaner shading effect without any shimmer or shine. Inexpensive shading products often feel heavy or clump, but this product has minimal powder fallout and good adhesion, making it easy for beginners to use. It can be used for: ✔ Nose shading: Enhances the nose bridge naturally without being too much. ✔ Cheekbone and jawline shading: Shapes the face without looking artificial. ✔ Eye makeup base: Can be used as a shading eyeshadow for daily makeup. ✔ Hairline enhancement: Fills in the forehead line naturally to make the face appear smaller. It's a suitable color for shading beginners, creating a natural shadow without making the face look too dark or dull.The product also has decent longevity. Inexpensive shading products often disappear or become patchy over time, but this one lasts well while fading naturally. ✔ As a powder product, it doesn't require setting, so it can be used comfortably even on oily skin. ✔ It maintains relatively well even after wearing a mask, with minimal transfer, keeping the makeup looking clean all day. Recommended for: ✅ Those who want natural-looking shading ✅ Those looking for a neutral brown tone without reddish or yellowish undertones ✅ Beginners who want a smooth texture that's easy to blend ✅ Those seeking a cost-effective shading product Overall Rating (⭐ 4.8/5) The Missha Cotton Contour Pact in Smoky Hazel has a light, soft texture, a natural shading color, and excellent value. If you're looking for shading that shapes the face without being too much, this is a recommended product.
Cons1. The pigmentation is relatively weak. While it is good for creating natural-looking shadows, it may feel a bit light for those who desire more intense shading. Multiple applications may be required to achieve the desired intensity. 2. The longevity is not perfect. It has good adhesion initially, but can gradually become lighter over time. The durability may be reduced, especially on oily skin. 3. There is a slight powdery fallout. Due to the fine texture, a small amount of powder may be released when picked up with a brush. However, it is not significantly noticeable when applied on the face. 4. It is not a large-sized product, so it may be consumed quickly. The compact size means it can be used up faster than expected, especially with daily use. 5. It may have a grayish tone, depending on the skin tone. While the color is neutral, it may appear slightly gray and unnatural on certain skin tones, especially olive-toned complexions. 6. The packaging is relatively simple. It is portable, but the design is not particularly luxurious or sturdy-feeling. As long as you keep these points in mind, it is a reasonably priced product that can be used without much difficulty.
Tip1. Natural Application Techniques ✔ Apply in multiple layers instead of a single heavy application If you want to create a more natural-looking shadow effect without heavy pigmentation, it's important to pick up a small amount of product on the brush and apply it in multiple layers. ✔ Blend by tapping Blending with a brushing motion in one direction may result in uneven application, so gently tapping and blending with the brush will help the product disperse more naturally. 2. Contouring for Face Shapes ✔ Round Face: Blend the product in a C-shape along the temples, under the cheekbones, and jawline to create a slimmer appearance. ✔ Angular Face: Apply the product softly along the jawline to help smooth out the angles. ✔ Long Face: Shade the forehead and chin to balance the proportions and create a more harmonious facial structure. 3. Natural Nose Contouring ✔ Start from below the brows rather than just the sides of the nose Heavily shading just the sides of the nose can look unnatural. Gradually diffusing the product from the brow area towards the tip creates a more seamless shadow. ✔ Finish with the remaining product on the brush Instead of heavily applying the product to the entire nose, lightly sweep the remaining product on the brush for a more natural finish. 4. Longer-Lasting Techniques ✔ Use an appropriate base after skincare Applying contouring on dry skin can cause patchiness and uneven wear, so using a smooth, satin-like base is important. ✔ Set with a fixative or powder Lightly dusting translucent powder over the contoured areas can help the product stay in place for longer. 5. Versatile Applications ✔ Use as an eyeshadow base The natural shading can be utilized as a subtle eyeshadow base, especially for everyday makeup looks. ✔ Correct the hairline Lightly applying the product along the forehead can create the illusion of a smaller face. ✔ Apply to the jawline and collarbones Use the product to seamlessly blend the color difference between the face and neck, or add subtle shading to the collarbones for a more dimensional look.

But the Missha Contour has amazing color payoff and a really natural finish!! It seems suitable for all skin tones.👀
ConsI felt like there was a slight clumping. After thoroughly powder-treating, applying with a soft brush helped improve it.
TipI'd recommend using chin shading rather than nose shading! This product is perfect for sweeping on with a large brush in a flurry of motions!

I previously used something very yellow, but this works great for cool-toned skin. It has a nice gray tone and no yellow at all. It's really affordable, and I've tried both the warm and cool versions, and my friend who also has a cool undertone said it's great too.
ConsThe powder has more fallout than I expected, but for this price, the amount of fallout is tolerable.

The color is closer to a cool-toned color rather than a warm-toned color, so it seems like a good color to use for contouring. Also, it's not too cool-toned, but has a moderate cool tone, so I think it would be good for people like me who have warm undertones to use without any burden. The light color was good for building up the application, and the amount wasn't too much, so it seems suitable to carry around as a portable item. Overall, I was satisfied with the product without any major drawbacks!
ConsI don't think there were any major disappointments for me. Compared to other contouring products, the size is on the smaller side, so it might be a bit small to use for contouring the jawline as well.

It looks natural when used for contouring.
ConsIt seems to be a cool-toned contouring product rather than a warm-toned one. It's barely noticeable when applied on the chin.
