Key Takeaways
The Sheglam Sun Sculpt Liquid Contour is one of those TikTok-viral products that feels too cheap to be good. I've been using the shade Hazelnut Latte consistently, and here's the honest truth — not hype, not PR.
What It Is
This is a liquid contour with a sponge-tip applicator designed to give a soft sculpted effect. The formula is creamy, highly pigmented, and marketed as long-wearing.
Hazelnut Latte sits in the middle of the shade range and is meant for medium skin tones.
What It Claims
- Highly pigmented, easy-to-blend formula
- Natural, sculpted finish
- Long-lasting wear
- Beginner-friendly applicator
- Affordable, cruelty-free makeup
My Experience
My skin type is combination. I contour lightly and prefer something natural, not muddy or harsh. I've used this both for everyday makeup and full glam.
First Uses
First impression: very pigmented. One dot per cheek is enough. It blends beautifully, but you need to work quickly because it does set.
After a Few Weeks
This is where it won me over. It doesn't lift my foundation, doesn't cling to texture, and looks seamless once blended.
Hazelnut Latte does lean warm. On me, it's halfway between contour and bronzer — which I actually like.
Long-Term Wear
It lasts surprisingly well. By the end of the day, the contour is still visible but soft, not patchy or broken up.
What I Love
- Very blendable for a liquid product
- Natural-matte finish
- Doesn't lift base makeup
- Extremely affordable
- Perfect everyday sculpt for warm tones
What Could Be Better
- Runs warm, not a true grey contour
- Sponge applicator isn't the most hygienic
- Sets fast — beginners need to work in sections
How I Apply It
- Apply a small dot to the back of my hand
- Pick up product with a dense brush
- Blend upward along cheekbones
- Diffuse edges with a damp sponge
Pro tip: Less is more. This product builds very easily.
Alternatives Worth Considering
- Charlotte Tilbury Contour Wand: More refined, but much pricier
- Elf Halo Glow Contour: Softer and cooler-toned
- Rare Beauty Liquid Bronzer: Better if you want warmth over shadow
