Colourpop Super Shock Cheek (Avalon) Pearlized

This is a cream highlighter and a little bit goes along way. I chose this color because it looked like it would be the most forgiving on my skin tone and I am glad that I did because it is very pretty. $8.00 @colourpop.com Net WT. 4.2g/ 0.15OZ

Swatch Out! Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit (That Glow)

The Anastasia Glow Kit in That Glow is the Holy grail of highlighter palettes. I must have for any makeup enthusiast. Especially makeup artist kits. I purchased this particular palette because the colors swatched better on my skin than the Gleam Glow Kit. These highlighters are powder with the obtain of applying wet, which I have not tried yet, so stay tuned for an updated blog post along with makeup looks. The powder is fine and applies beautifully. You can layer these colors and wear them on the eyes and body as well.

Metallic powder highlighters for intense luminosity. Layer shades together or wear them separately on eyes and body. For even more glow, apply with a damp makeup brush.
