e.l.f. Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder Matte Bronzer ($1, 0.18oz) is actually a good contour for cheeks. It’s texture is silky smooth and although it says matte the product does have some gold sparkle in it but when applied it looks completely matte. This product comes in 4 shades: Sun Kissed, Warm Tan, Luminance, and Matte Bronze. From the pictures online Warm Tan seems to be the better one to use as a bronzer. The Matte Bronze is too dark for me to use all over my face, I think it would be good for darker skinned girls though. I am going to use this to contour my cheeks. For contouring my cheeks I have been using MAC sculpting powder in Shadester (I think $22, 0.21oz) described as a midtone leathery beige, it looks more like a reddish brown when heavily swatched.

On the right is MAC sculpting powder in shadester, e.l.f. bronzer in matte bronze, and Bobbi Brown bronzer in Light which I use in my face. As you can  see e.l.f.’s bronzer looks to be a better contour powder because it will not create a reddish brown color on the face but a more natural tan when applied lightly. I have been having issues with using MAC’s when I can’t get the powder to blend, so I’m hoping this will solve the problem and will save me more money!
