Review: Too Cool For School Art Class by Rodin line



Too Cool for school Artclass by Rodin line so far consists of a contour powder, a highlighter and a blush. Undoubtedly the most famous product in the line is the contour powder that has almost a cult status among lovers of Korean beauty products. 


The cult status of the contour powder is well deserved as it is a lovely, pigmented finely milled matte powder that blends well. It consists of three shades of brown, the middle one being the most cool toned one. The color of all three blended together is similar to that of a Hoola bronzer by Benefit, another product with a cult status. It is suitable for people with light to medium skin tone. 
Tiki's thoughts:I like it and use it often.

Highlighter is a golden champagne highlight that gives this lovely sheen on skin. It is not in your face highlight but one suitable for everyday wear. If you try to build it up to more intensity it can get cakey and emphasise skin imperfections.  It consists of three shades ranging from light gold to rose gold. I like to wear all of them mixed together. Suitable for people with light to medium skin tone. 
Tiki's thoughts: It is a nice everyday highlight. Office appropriate. 

Blush, as many Korean blushes, is very light, subtle and discreet. It is a matte blush consisting of three colors: apricot (so light that it does not even show on my very pale skin), peach and coral pink, mixed all together they give a light peachy pink blush. Blush blends well and is finely milled but rather light and really not buildable and will show up only on people with very light skin. 
Tiki's thoughts: I am regretting buying it. Even on my super pale skin it barely shows. 

One thing to note is that all of these make nice eyeshadows too. Blush works better as an eyeshadow than blush to be honest. (Sorry for my poor swatch taking skills).
