Beam!
I bought this product, after a YouTuber I watch frequently used to constantly use the flexitarian highlighter. Never ordered from colourpop before. Ordered the highlighter and a few other bits. Gotta say I do like it! Its a strange feeling formula when you touch it, really cool to the touch and feels like it should be almost a cream or jelly maybe? But it's definitely a powder. You can apply a smaller amount and it's fairly subtle, but this is a highlight that likes to make itself seen. I know it's not so popular now to be blinding with highlight, but some of us still like it, and this is a great one for helping with that. Im not sure if it's still available. But if it is and you like a slight bit of tin man look to your makeup, you should definitely grab it and give it a try. 😊

My love for elf halo glow!
i use the elf halo glow and i can say it works wonderfully, it doesn’t make your face clumpy but it makes it glow, it makes it smooth and clear, and makes your face look refreshed. I will say it is also very true to color. I recommend this product because ive heard SO much about how good it is so that led me to try it and now i’m in love!!! If you want something new i definitely recommend this!

ABH contour cream
initially wasn't a fan of the product. However, after a bit of experimenting, I did end up liking it a lot but there are still some issues. I love the highlight shade for my undereye area, nose and forehead but it ran out so quickly and ABH have not brought out refills yet which is such a shame and meant that I had to resort to a cream highlighter alternative for the time being whilst still using the contour shades and waiting patiently for ABH to finally bring out the cream contour refills.

Egyptian Frost is my first…
I have this Skin Frost in the shade Egyptian Gold. I first thought it would be too dark for my light skin, but it is softly and shimmery “copper”(?) and looks radiantly beautiful. I like the formula and would like to try other shades in the Skin Frost line. I just wish it were more easily attainable for those of us on a stricter budget.

HG product
A great holy grail products. I use this to add a bit of colour and light coverage to my face on no make up/natural days but this is also a great first step/primer before my foundation and helps blend it in well. The shades are decent too and there’s loads of product to use. Still not finished my bottle

Beautiful glowy skin!
Elf Halo Glow is incredibly lightweight and settles beautifully on skin. I regularly use the product in my professional makeup kit as it performs better than most luxury brands for a dewy base/light coverage foundation. The colour range is basic but as there is little coverage it is not the end of the world as I find I can use multiple different shades and achieve a similar finish. Very impressed with Elf!

Elf Halo Glow
Makes your skin look so radiant and infused with vitamins to help keep your skin healthy, last for ages and blends out so easily. Will definitely be buying again! Can be used as a highlighter, base under foundation, or just by itself, Low coverage but perfect

Get your glow on
Charlotte Tilbury is all about glow and this product is exactly that. The Pinkgasm light wand is a higlight/blush hybrid that will make your cheeks glow like a golden goddess. The shade is an orangey shade with a hint of bronze, which may be a slight suprise from the shade name but is is absolutely gorgeous on. I prefer to rub it in with my fingers but a brush works fine too, just work in each side as you dot it on your face as it starts drying quickly. It is long lasting and catches the light beautifully. And it has a little on/off switch so if it gets squeezed accidentally (if someone steps on it perhaps) it should stay in the tube and not all go in the lid.

Nice one
*********** Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter Hollywood Flawless Filter is beautiful. It's like adding a digital filter to a photo - it instantly lifts complexion, eliminates imperfections, and adds radiance. Combining these filter-like perfecting properties with the blurring benefits of a favourite foundation and the glow of a highlighter, this luscious liquid delivers a dewy, soft finish and illuminates skin in an instant. ****************

Interesting product!
It’s not often I buy into the TikTok buzz around a makeup product. However, my sister-in-law had the product and used it on me one weekend away and I was hooked. I believe that this product of Charlotte Tilbury’s product and have always wanted to try it but couldn't justify the price at £36, the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter, a primer, mixer, and highlighter hybrid that people have been loving for years. Once I have finished the collection bottle I will definitely be trying the Charlotte Tilbury version!

Can’t Skip This Product ☀️
Charlotte never fails, especially with her lights wands, this colour and shine looks divine on all skin tones and types on both matte and dewy makeup, I have never seen anyone look bad with this on, the only mistake I have seen people make is putting this on after powder and leaving it on for too long before blending. This is a no skip product. Period. 😘

Charlotte Tilbury never fails I agree with you 💓
Do not sleep on this!
This highlighter is beyond pigmented! My sister had it and I loved the swatch but wasn’t sold. Bought it to give it a go and she blends like a dream. Isn’t too chalky looking on the skin either. It gives the perfect glow without it being too shimmery and it looking like you’ve just put glitter on your face.

beautiful
This product is so so beautiful and for its price it’s just too good, I would highly recommend this product. It completes the entire look and looks glamorous and it’s so pigmented that you don’t even need a lot. It lasts for a really long time and it will not disappoint.

Sun Beam - Benefit
I tried Sun Beam by Benefit for the first time the other day. It gave my cheeks a dewy glow & the applicator was the perfect size for precise application so it was really easy to apply. I did like this product but I think I'm more used to using powder highlighter. The colour is lush though!

perfect

elf halo glow
breaks me out tbh and don’t really like how it’s just a knock off charlotte tilbury, may aswell get the real thing as this elf one is very itchy on the skin and not good for dry skin. on the other hand it does leave a nice glow and has a thick applicator
