I've been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the L.A. Girl Velvet Contour Sticks ($5 each at LaGirlCosmetics.com) and they finally launched today! I love cream blushes and highlighters in stick form because they're so easy to use and tend to blend beautifully and look natural. I also love L.A. Girl...they're one of my favorite affordable brands and I've liked just about everything I've tried from them, from the Beauty Bricks to Pro Conceal HD Concealer to the Glazed Lip Paints (check out my L.A. Girl Reviews here). Let's take a closer look!
From the L.A. Girl website:
Contouring made easy with the new Velvet Contour Stick. Collection includes 3 highlighters, 10 blushes and 3 bronzers. This luxurious formula is paraben free with added jojoba seed oil, shea butter, cocoa seed butter and grape seed oil . The soft powdery finish blends beautifully - perfect for contouring!
I wanted to share this photo from one of my favorite YouTube vloggers, Michelle from ReadySetGlamour. She posted this photo on her Instagram page the other day showing swatches of all sixteen shades. Hopefully it'll help you decide which shades to get!

I have my eye on all three highlighters, Luminous, Radiance, and Cashmere. As far as the blushes go, I like Snuggle, Dreamy and Plume from the top row and My Bae, Glimmer, Pinch Me, and Velour from the bottom row...I have fair skin so I have to be careful not to get into the darker shades too much. I'm also not really too interested in the contour shades, so that helps to narrow it down a little bit.
