Pros: a little goes a long way, convenient compact, lasts long

Hello lovelies!

For a long time I was dreaming of this highlighter when my friend finally bought it for me.

The price was about $23

The packaging is very convenient. As for the consistency, I don’t even know how to describe it right: it’s creamy yet solid. All in all I think that this consistency will make the product last a lifetime. Smile

It goes such a long way so I guess it’s worth splurging on it.

I love wearing it solo with no heavy makeup on. For example some highlighter on my cheekbones, on the brow bone, Cupid’s bow, inner and outer corners, a little on the chin and bridge of the nose and a little higher. The most important is to apply the product with your fingertips and blend out the highlighter thoroughly.

After that you’ll look glowy and chic! Smile

Or for example in summer I usually apply only this highlighter to the listed above areas and that’s it. Smile

!!!Attention !!! The girls with oily skin type probably won’t like this product… You see, this highlighter is creamy which means that you’ll have to apply foundation at first, then powder and highlighter over. And can you imagine the oily sheen that will appear within a couple of hours of wearing? (of course it’ll depend on the type of foundation first of all) but still, all this cakeyness won’t look good on the skin. Moreover, you’ll have to touch-up with powder very often not too shine like a new chandelier.

I noticed that once I add some of this highlighter on my lips, my face looks more glowy and magically harmonious! Smile

These are the BEFORE and AFTER shots. How do you find them?Smile
