Anastasia Beverly Hills Amrezy Highlighter
Is it too late to be posting about this highlighter? The Anastasia Beverly Hills Amrezy highlighter is quite possibly the most raved about highlighter of 2018. It was limited edition, but I found it months later at the UK ABH website and this is also still available from the French Sephora website. So I say…

Physician’s Formula Butter Blush & Highlight
If there is a US drugstore brand that is very often hyped up but that is so difficult to find if you’re in Europe, it’s Physician’s Formula. It is not impossible: it is available online, but you will always pay much more and products take a long time to become available. So when Stash Matters…

Becca Skin Perfector highlighter Vanilla Quartz
My favorite brand for highlighters? Becca for sure. They are expensive, but they are some of my favorites because of their total shade range and the great color pay off that you get with these. I have been buying a new one every year or so as they kept coming out with new shades that…

Catrice Golden Dust Highlighter Drops
Liquid products are something that are becoming increasingly popular. Liquids can be a bit more difficult to work with, but the effect, when applied well can be stunning. Most often, liquid products can look more natural, more youthful and less heavy on the skin. Catrice has released several liquid highlighters and also in their new…

Make Up Revolution Skin Kiss Highlighter
When I decided to try some more Make Up Revolution products last year, I also threw in a few of their powder highlighters. I decided to try the ginormous Skin Kiss highlighter in Prismatic Kiss. The main reason for wanting to try this particular highlighter is because I read that it was a great dupe…

Wet N Wild Megaglo Highlighter
The highlighter craze has not yet passed, but by now there are so many different highlighters that it is difficult to discern which ones are the best. And finding that affordable gem is of course always a great thing to find. Enter the Wet N Wild Megaglo Highlighters. Affordable. Raved about. But what do I…

MAC Extra Dimension highlighter
When I started hearing good stories about the MAC Extra Dimension Skinfinishes I knew I wanted to try one. The only problem? Which one to get. I hear great reviews on Double Gleam, Beaming Blush and Snow Frost, but I wanted to try something I didn’t own yet. I wasn’t looking for another gold or…

Maybelline Master Holographic highlighter
2018 was the year in which I tried holographic highlighters. After trying Becca’s Prismatic Amethyst and loving it, I knew I had to try and find a more affordable dupe. So I made it my duty to find a cheaper alternative to one of my all time favorites. When Maybelline released their new Master Chrome…

Highlighters for pale skin
Finding a good highlighter when you have fair skin can be quite a feat. Think of all the hyped up highlighters in recent years: Becca Champagne Pop, Sleek Solstice palette, and many more have been raved about by many online beauty gurus and I have tried many of them. However, 9 out of 10 times…

NYX Duochromatic highlighter
A pinky purple highlighter is one of my favorites, so when I discovered that I like that last year, I bought quite a few to try to see which one is my favorite. It all started with Becca Prismatic Amethyst and one possible, much more affordable dupe for that highlighter is the NYX Duochromatic highlighter…

Annabelle Perfect Glow & Hololighter highlighters
A few weeks ago I showed you the makeup swap package Stashy went me from Canada and in one go that package give me so much new makeup to play with. There were a few items that instantly caught my eye. Case in point: three Annabelle highlighters. These gave quite some problems as some of…
-
Becca Prismatic Amethyst highlighter
The flying saucer highlighters by Becca are not only iconic for their packaging, but also for their insane glow. The shade selection isn’t my favorite, which is why so far I only owned Pearl. I know everyone loves Moonstone for fair skins, but it is too yellow for me. Luckily Becca continues to expand their…

Catrice 3D Glow highlighter
Of all the new Catrice products that were released for fall/ winter 2018, the item I was most curious after besides the foundation were the new 3D Glow powder highlighters. That is why I got 2 of the three shades. One of the shades I knew would be too dark for me but the lighter…

Catrice Holographic highlighter stick
In summer, I love playing around with cream products. I truly have a moment every year trying cream highlighter. I don’t know what it is, but I love trying some cream highlighters in the summer time. This time around, I thought I’d try out the Catrice highlighter stick that promises to be holographic. The question…

Laura Geller Baked highlight duo
Laura Geller is one of those brands that some people rave about, but it is definitely not one of the most popular brands out there. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that they are incredibly hard to get when you live anywhere outside the US, but maybe it is just that the brand…

LA Girl Strobelite highlighter
Golden toned highlighters get lots of love and raves from many beauty gurus. Sadly, on my fair skin, they hardly ever turn out looking great. So I was on the hunt for the perfect golden toned highlighter for fair skin. Preferably a good one, that is not too expensive and that lasts well on the…

Maybelline Master Strobing Liquid
In the summer, I tend to change up my makeup routine quite a bit. Last year around this time, I became obsessed with trying liquid highlighters. And so I acquired a few which I have been rotating in and out of my routine for a while now to test them out. One of those liquid…

Essence Holo Wow Sparkle Stick
Cream products are never really of interest to me, unless it is summer. For the warmer weather I love trying out liquid and cream cheek products that I usually stay away from for the rest of the year. Since we’re nearing summer once again, I have slowly been busting out those products again. The first…

Favorite highlighters
Who isn’t a fan of highlighter? I think if there is one makeup product that propelled to the forefront of the makeup loving crowd, it is highlighter. I remember a few years ago, hardly anybody cared or wore highlighter. Now, it is a feature many wouldn’t dream of skipping. I certainly wouldn’t! So these are…

Ofra highlighter Rodeo Drive
Look who finally jumped on the bandwagon? Yep, that would be me. I finally caved and decided to try an Ofra highlighter. These are much raved about and now also come in some additional shades. I went with the OG Rodeo Drive shade. I initially wanted to get Blissful, but after doing some research I…

Kiko Glow Fusion highlighter
Kiko Milano is an Italian brand that I love trying items from. They make one of my all time favorite blushes and their eyeshadow sticks are great too. When I spotted they now also do highlighters when I visited one of their stores, I was curious to try it. I was umming and arring between…
-
Essence Glow to Go highlighter palette
My experience with Essence palette, be it eyeshadow be it face palettes, is a bit hit or miss. The products are affordable and sadly that means that the quality isn’t always there. However, since the products never truly break the bank, I love trying them out when a new launch rolls around. For their S/S…

Catrice Galactic Liquid highlighter
In the new Catrice line up, it is all about that glow. Now many of the products are dubbed ‘holographic’, but so far none of the products I have tried come even close to being truly holographic. That said, however, that doesn’t mean these products aren’t pretty or don’t work well. Case in point: the…
-
Catrice Galaxy in a Box highlighter palette
When I spotted that Catrice would be releasing a highlighter palette, I was curious. I am not a huge fan of highlighter palettes. Face palettes that include more versatility I can get down with, but a palette just with highlighters is not necessarily my cup of tea. But this promised a holographic glowing effect: the…

Perfect highlighters for fair skin
For a long time I struggled to find highlighters that suited my fair skin tone. Many of the hyped up and raved about highlighters are champagne and golden toned highlighters that are often much too dark for my skin tone. Rather than functioning as a highlight, on me, these highlighters look like a streak of…
-
Make Up Revolution Radiant Light highlighter
Often the products I try are very carefully picked out. I request and receive little to no PR. Most of the items I am just not that interested in, so I’d rather buy products that I love than receive lots of free stuff that I am not remotely interested in. So it hardly ever happens…

Colourpop Super Shock Cheek Hippo
In my recent makeup favorites of 2017, I listed Colourpop Hippo as one of my favorite highlighters of the year. And it was a product I had not yet posted online with a review. So it is high time that I got round to doing it. It was not a product that was love at…

Benefit Dandelion Twinkle & Hoola Lite
When two cult makeup products are released in new renditions, all of the makeup loving world of course has to jump on that bandwagon. And so did I. Benefits Dandelion blush and Hoola bronzer are some infamous makeup products that are loved by many. So when they released the first as a highlight and the…

Essence Holographic highlighter stick
It’s getting darker and darker as we’re nearing the winter season and that means that any which way you can brighten up a day is very welcome. Makeup wise that means whipping out some extra highlighter. And what better way to do that than with a holographic highlighter? Essence has decided to bring out that…

NARS Albatross highlighter
NARS do some awesome cult makeup products. There are the Radiant Creamy Concealer, Orgasm blush and Laguna bronzer for starters. Another product that fits into that long line of cult favorites is NARS Albatross. This highlighter used to be raved about, but that was back when highlighting wasn’t really a thing. Such a shame that…
