Help - best first contour stick, high street

Hi,
I use EL DW in desert beige, plus a little powder blusher / bronzer (not too sparkly). Cream eyeshadow I put on with fingertips. Barely discernable eyebrows!!
But I know I'm behind the times!
Can you recommend a starter brand for contour stick? I'm so scared of being over made up / caked / pink looking.
I'm definitely yellow based, dark brown natural.hair with slight red in light. Green eyes. Heritage Scottish.

Thank you.

I don't mind paying a little more for quality, but I need to practice first.
And get the shade right (if that's a thing?)

Fenty do a contour stick that is ashy and would suit you.

How willi know which is the ashy one (and what do you mean, ashy? Yellow toned? Not a grey pink?)

Ashy means not orange! Pale skin is tricky to not make orange

It's the pink I've to avoid! Yellow orange brown side of colour wheel, all good if in a light tone.
Anything slightly pink or rosy - dire. Even blue / /cold lilac tones better than pink. Pink turns me orange somehow 😂
