Charlotte Tilbury
I loved it! it was a beautiful makeup product, I would buy it again. it goes smooth on the skin and for almost every skin type. I run out of it quickly and it is kind of expensive what is less. but it is worth the price, and a perfect present for a girl who loves make up.

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.

PERFECT
I am so happy with this tinted skin glow. Although it's not very opaque, it really shines on my face. It gives a very natural glow! This is really my favorite. After my day cream, I always use it. Your skin looks instantly glowy!

Very good
Been told is a good dupe for Charlotte tilbury. I love it it lasts all day and can be build up. It is not full coverage however as you do see some imperfections and can look a little orange and shiny. However issues are early fixable with other products

Glowing and radiant perfection
The Dior Backstage Glow Face Palette is a must-have for anyone who loves a glowing, radiant complexion. It comes with a selection of shades that suit a variety of skin tones, so you can mix and match to find your perfect glow. The formula is silky smooth and gives a subtle, dewy finish without looking too sparkly or heavy. It’s really easy to build up the intensity, so whether you want a natural highlight or a more dramatic shine, this palette has you covered. Plus, the blendability is top-notch, making it a great option for both everyday wear and special occasions. If you’re looking for that lit-from-within glow, this palette is definitely worth trying!

Filter Finish
I use this product regularly when i want some light coverage. I use a concealer under it and it is great on top. The applicator stick is perfect size for dispensing the product. The product itself is great, doesn’t break me out in acne, is affordable and isn’t too shiny on the skin. It creates a perfect natural cover which could be buildable.

Elf Halo Glow
This product is a perfect dupe for the charlotte tilbury flawless filter. It gives me a nice clean look and makes my skin look clean and glowy. I have bad skin and this product has never once made me break out or cause dryness. It doesn’t seperate either which is perfect for my dry skin.

Love Elf x
positive
this is a great product for people who like more of a natural makeup look as it’s not got as much coverage as over brands but covers what it needs to, it also has quite a large shade range and applies smoothly on your skin. it’ also buildable so it’s easy to layer makeup onto it.

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!

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. ****************
