Let’s be real: contouring can be intimidating. Between the complex diagrams and the fear of accidentally looking “overdone,” many of us end up skipping the sculpt altogether. But Smashbox is changing the game with their new Contour Collection, launched in Canada on March 1. Inspired by the professional lighting techniques used at Smashbox Studios, this lineup is all about effortless, buildable formulas that work for every face shape—whether you’re an oval, round, heart, or square.
Ready to find your light? Here is the studio-tested lineup available now at Shoppers Drug Mart:
The Sculpting Superstars
- Precision Contour Sticks ($37 CAD): These slim, slanted sticks give you targeted control to sculpt not just your cheeks and jawline, but also around the eyes, lips, and nose. The creamy formula comes in five true-to-skin shades from Fair to Dark.
- Step-By-Step Contour Palette ($60 CAD): Think of this as a lighting kit in a compact. It features three buildable powders to contour, bronze, and highlight. Plus, there’s a QR code included for easy-to-follow, personalized tutorials tailored to your specific face shape.
- 2-in-1 Contour Brush ($50 CAD): This dual-ended multi-tasker features an angled end for precise cream application and a fluffy end for seamless powder blending.
