As we begin to transition into summer, I’m making it my personal mission to find the best highlighters to make me shine bright like a diamond! Well, not quite as bright as a diamond, I do have limits! =)
There are three colors currently on the market: Rose Champagne Glow (pearlescent light pink), Hollywood Boulevard (pure gold), Rose Golden Goddess (bronzed copper). These are baked powders and can be used wet (to intensify the finish) or dry (for a subtle glow). The product size is bigger than other highlighting powders coming in at 11.3g. MAC’s Mineralize Skinfinishes are 10g, Bobbi Brown’s Highlighting Powders and Becca’s Shimmer Skin Perfecter Pressed are both 8g.
I’d say the best feature about these products is the price. These will only run you $5.99 each! Let’s compare that to some of my other favorite highlighters: MAC Mineralize Skinfinish ‘Gold Deposit’ ($32), Becca Cosmetics Shimmering Skin Perfecter Pressed ‘Opal’ ($38), Bobbi Brown Highlight Powder ‘Bronze Glow’ ($45).
Basically the price difference speaks for itself!
It’s also been said that some of these colors are dupes for some prestige brand/limited edition products that you might not be able to get your hands on anymore. For example, ‘Hollywood Boulevard’ is similar to MAC’s Limited Edition Extra Dimension Skinfinish ‘Whisper of Gilt’ which is probably the most sought after highlighter on the face of the planet!My suggestion? Run, not walk, RUN to you nearest drugstore and grab these before anyone else! Yes, be selfish about grabbing these! Don’t you want that golden goddess glow this summer? Well hit the road Jack! But if you still haven’t made up your mind, keep reading to check out my swatches!
