NEW It Cosmetics Sunshine in a Compact AND You Sculpted!



I love It Cosmetics--their CC Cream is one of my fave things ever (already packed in the Cancun bag). Their products pepper my makeup room here and there. And when I got the chance to try out some new goodies from them, I HAD to try them. Look at them! Let's see what's inside:




It Cosmetics You Sculpted!
  • Universal Contouring Palette for Face and Body $40
  • "Developed with plastic surgeons, the leading experts in contouring and aesthetics, each powder shade is formulated with proprietary Perfect Lighting™ Technology to mimic real facial contouring and provide a foolproof alternative to fillers."
  • Four contour shades, two highlighters 
  • Talc-free, and perfect for all skin types and skin tones, these shades are infused with anti-aging collagen, silk and peptides to blend effortlessly and deliver smooth, natural-looking coverage that lasts all day.
  • There’s an included how-to guide 
    • I found this to be a very wearable palette and prefer the soft or light contour shades. The highlights are natural and very pretty on. Not too glittery. 
    • I don't do body contouring, so I won't use the darker shades regularly for that, but I do use them for eye shadows.

FYI: Vitality Anti-Aging Matte Bronzer is now called Sunshine In A Compact™! $34
  • Developed with leading plastic surgeons, this game-changing, talc-free matte bronzer is infused with proprietary Drops of Light Technology™ to add instant radiance without any glitter or shimmer, just skin-perfecting vitality and an airbrushed finish. 
  • Ideal for all skin types and tones, it never settles into fine lines and wrinkles
  • Use on both your face and body
    • Despite the color, this is a very natural-looking matte bronzer and isn't muddy in person.
    • The brush is the Heavenly Radiance brush--very soft like all IT Cosmetics brushes


Normally when I wear contour and highlight it doesn't show well in pictures, regardless of brand, unless I PILE it on, so that's what I'm doing here to show it on the skin. Don't worry--I blended everything in after photos!! I'm wearing the radiance highlight and the deep contour. On my eyes are the light and soft contour colors--totally forgot to finish the eye look when I took these.
And here are the swatches of everything. Again, everything is natural on my light-medium skin tone and very wearable. I was happy with both products.

Have you tried It Cosmetics?
Which products do you love from IT?

  4. Every time I see IT Cosmetics on our shopping channel, I'm always tempted to buy the showstoppers! I've only heard great things about the line, esp. the CC Cream and the concealer. Thanks for the review on this palette and compact:)

  6. I haven't tried IT cosmetics, but I am experimenting with contouring a lot lately, maybe because of You Tube. That one looks lovely though, but i have three palettes right now, I just couldn't justify adding another one right now.

  13. Ok, so I feel like this is a contour kit I could actually do! I like the lighter colors too, I think it looks a little more natural.

  18. I have an eyeliner from It Cosmetics that I got in my first Ipsy bag this month, and I like it, although I don't wear eyeliner that often. That bronzer looks great--that's a product I need to wear more regularly to get some more color on my face, especially this time of year!

  19. These both look like good quality products. All the swatches seem to show up pretty well aside from the matte highlight which is a given. I actually like matte highlights for an everyday look or a very light and subtle highlight. Great review Elle!

  20. i always feel better after i get my hair done as well :) i have never used any IT cosmetics items before, though i have heard amazing things about the cc cream, so good to know you like it as well, you might be who i originally heard it from. so smart to use the darker shades as eye shadow!

  30. I like this! I'd try it, but I'd probably do it all wrong somehow. My nine year old is better with makeup.

  35. I haven't tried anything similar or makeup that contours. I am happy surprised to see how light, airy and fresh this feels. You are glowing Elle. I totally agree about getting your hair done and feeling like a million bucks! Are you in Cancut, yet?

  36. I've never tried an It Cosmetics products, but I have so many on my wish list, especially that bronzer.

  37. I had a very odd reaction to the it CC cream. I was very sad about it, since it is such a popular product. I have tried their bye bye pores powder and it was nice. It's not a brand I'm super familiar with, so it's always nice to see reviews on their products! (:

  38. It Cosmetics does such a great job with every product I have tried! Sunshine In a Compact sounds like a great summer bronzer. I have such a long list of products I want to try from this brand!
