About Product
EXCEL Impressive Mood Shade
EXCEL Impressive Mood Shade is a three-colour multi-use shading powder that combines two graduated contour shades with a vivid accent colour to add natural-looking dimension while subtly enhancing the overall impression of the complexion.
Rather than relying on a flat grey-brown shadow, the formula incorporates colour inspired by cheek shading. The added colour creates a soft sense of warmth or translucency across the face, helping the complexion appear brighter and more dimensional while defining facial contours.
Available in two tone variations — IM01 Warm Tone and IM02 Cool Tone — with an original dual-ended brush for both broad contouring and precise detail work.

Why You'll Love It
Contour with Colour for a Brighter-Looking Impression
EXCEL takes a different approach to traditional contouring by adding a carefully selected accent colour between two shading tones.
The subtle colour creates the impression of soft warmth or translucency across the complexion, so you can visually define the face without making the skin look dull or overly shadowed.
The result is natural-looking dimension with a brighter, more lively overall impression.
Three Colours Designed to Blend Together
Each palette combines:
- Shade Colour ①
- Shade Colour ②
- Accent Colour
The two shading colours create adjustable depth, while the accent colour adds a nuanced complexion-enhancing effect.
Blend the shades according to the area and desired intensity for everything from soft facial contouring to more precise shadow placement.
IM01 Warm Tone
IM01 Warm Tone is designed to naturally enhance the appearance of healthy warmth in the complexion.
Its warm-toned accent colour works alongside the shading shades to create natural-looking depth without making the face appear flat or dull.
Recommended for: Yellow-based / warm undertones.
IM02 Cool Tone
IM02 Cool Tone is designed to naturally enhance a sense of translucency and clarity in the complexion.
The cool-toned accent colour combines with the shading shades for sophisticated dimension with a fresher, clearer-looking finish.
Recommended for: Blue-based / cool undertones.
Soft, Buildable & Long-Lasting Colour
The powder provides soft pigmentation that is easy to control, allowing the intensity to be gradually built rather than appearing overly strong with the first application.
The formula also contains a lasting component designed to help maintain freshly applied colour and resist fading.
Translucent Powder
A translucent powder blends lightly and smoothly with the skin, helping the shading look naturally integrated rather than sitting heavily on the complexion.
Multi-Use Shading Palette
EXCEL Impressive Mood Shade is designed for more than traditional facial contouring.
It can be used for:
- Facial contouring and shading
- Cheek colour
- Blending shading towards the eyebrows
- Creating the appearance of an under-eye shadow
- Subtle shading around the philtrum
- Other small areas requiring precise definition
This versatility allows the same palette to create both broad facial dimension and detailed makeup effects.
Original Dual-Ended W Brush
The included original W brush has two differently shaped ends for precise control.
Angled Brush
The soft, flared angled brush fits naturally against the contours of the face and is suitable for larger areas such as the face line and jawline.
Compact Brush
The smaller end is designed for pinpoint application. The tip can also be used almost like a line brush, making it suitable for detailed areas such as the sides of the nose, under-eye shadow and other small facial contours.
Formula Highlights
Ceramide NP
A skin-conditioning ingredient incorporated into the powder formula.
Squalane
Helps support a smooth, comfortable powder texture.
Jojoba Seed Oil
A botanical oil included in the formula for conditioning benefits.
Olive Fruit Oil
Another plant-derived oil incorporated into the powder formula.
Shades
IM01 Warm Tone
A warm colour combination designed to naturally bring out the complexion's healthy-looking warmth.
Best suited to: Warm / yellow-based undertones.
IM02 Cool Tone
A cool colour combination designed to naturally enhance the complexion's translucent-looking quality.
Best suited to: Cool / blue-based undertones.
How to Use
Use the three colours individually or blend them according to the desired effect.
For facial contouring, use the angled end of the included brush to apply the shading shades around larger areas such as the face line.
For cheek colour, incorporate the accent shade to add subtle colour and dimension.
For detailed shading, use the compact end of the brush around areas such as the sides of the nose, under the eyes or around the philtrum.
The shades can also be blended towards the eyebrows to create more cohesive-looking facial dimension.
