I got a little sample and was so impressed I got the full size. My skin hasn't looked better in months before I used it.
I asked you on the prev page, but I think you missed it. How do you think this compares the the GlamGlow PowerMud? The detox claims make me think they could be similar.

I am sorry I really didn't see it
unfortunately I never tried any of the glamglow masks
this is not mud or clay kind of effect. it's more brightening, soothing, tightening, moisturizing.

I just got my order. I do not care for that Becca Simmering Skin Spotlights highlighting trio. They are blah. In fact, I think they just make the skin look greasy/bad in MHO. What a disappointment.

On the other hand, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Algenist Primer. It makes the skin so silky soft & blurred/flawless! Beautiful - not silicone weird/greasy either. I haven't tried my Nudestix mascara yet.

Then out of my cart they go. I'm sorry you were disappointed in them. I hand swatched them at sephora this weekend and was kind of meh on them but since I hadn't tested them on my face I was still up in the air.

Aww what a bummer abt the highlighters! But I did notice that they are not the same consistency/ trial versions of the regular line when i swatched so I skipped it!! :(
The Algenist Primer sounds awesome though!!!

How are they different? Is there more highlight/shimmer in the regular ones?

Yep, they seemed like nothing on. I really didn't even noticed much highlighting or even much shimmer. Maybe they would work on someone else, but they surely didn't on me. They look so pretty in the container so what a bummer.

How are they different? Is there more highlight/shimmer in the regular ones?
Yes they do!! The consistency is more like a thicker creamy lotion and though they are still subtle highlighters shows up a lot better than the ones in the set!! Wonder why they decided to have a diff formula for this one.

Right! I thought it would be a great way to try them out.

I can agree with you on that. I happened to catch these at my local Sephora and did not like how they applied. I've heard such great things so I was pretty disappointed. As soon as I got home I took them off my loves list. Even the new champagne gold (pressed version) was a dud for me.

Is it really yellow in real life like it is in pictures?

Well, I am happy that its not just me being picky. I had high hopes for the rose color, but it just disappeared on me & when I turned in the light, it just looked clear slick. Not a flattering look.

Nars Copacabana & Adelade are still my all time favorite highlighters.

I just tried Chanel's Jersey blush over the Algenist Primer

It doesn't change the blush shade & makes it look flawless. My skin just feels like silk!

One of my favs! I absolutely love it during the summer. From body to face it's the best glow.
