(HAA): Highlighter Addicts Anonymous

[DILLIGAF]

This highlighter junkie bought another 2 highlighters this weekend.  Anyone . ard of Dose of Colors?  I just found out about this brand through Youtube or Instagram. I don't remember but I looked up on the store locator that it was available at Ricky's.  I went there in search of a lipgloss and found it but was surprised to see highlighters.  I don't know if they were really that different as I have so many but I just couldn't leave them in the store.  They were kind of pricey too.  I was expecting drugstore prices.  NOT.  $28 and change each.  Yikes.  I bought the peachy one and the bronzey one.  I still kind of want the pink one.  Oh what is an HA to do?   Oh and I was on my way to Sephora and was contemplating Becca Topaz powder.  I had the liquid version years ago when it first came out but never used it.  I didn't know much about highlighting then and I think I just put too much on.  But after this purchase I skipped it. Any experience with this brand?

Girl I have Becca Topaz and as a fellow HA I think you need it. It's perfect. I love it. It's so smooth and buttery. It was my first Becca pressed shimmering skin perfector. You need her in you life. I have great swatches in the Becca thread.

I almost picked it up during the Sephora VIB Rouge sale

I have Opal, Rose Gold & Champagne Gold
which looks like polenta/cornmeal!!

You should have! What is wrong with you? LOL! I thought you had it already.

Just got Bronze Glow today an on first impression, I don't like it. That seals it for me now: BB highlighters are just to glittery for my taste and I no longer need to entertain any thoughts of getting them anymore.

Really??? Does that mean one less highlighter Meddy has to buy?

If you don't like glitter on your face, then I guess I saved you some money...so that you can turn right around and buy Topaz!

Hi ICL! I've never heard of Dose of Colors. What dod you think of the quality of the products???

I have BB's Copper Diamond and it's not the least bit glittery. That said, there is no room on this face for glitter

Never got my hands on CD, so can't compare the two. I recently got the Bronze Shimmer Brick and it's more my style. You may like BG though. Glitter might be the wrong way to put it - rather it read like glitter on my skin, similar to how CT's Wonder Glow and TF Fire Lust looked to me when I swatched those.

Exchange that cornmeal and get Topaz!!! DO IT!!! DO IT NOW!!!!!

 

[Yazmin]

I've been thinking about returning my Champagne Gold as well. Gonna try Erin's idea first of using it as an eyeshadow. If that doesn't work, it's going back.

​I have Fire Lust---how are you comparing liquids to powder? When I think of all of the highlighters that I have, I shouldn't even be contemplating another one.
For sure all of my highlighters will out-live me!!!

I don't even remember where I purchased it!!! I'll probably end up giving it away.

So I want to try the Becca Skin Perfecting Spotlights...whatever it is called. It's a set of 3. I've never tried Becca, any good?

 

[DILLIGAF]

We've got Ricky's here in the MIA! I'm going to check them out for the Dose of Colors highlighters. I already bought Melot liquid lipstick from them.

My experience with Becca comes from the pressed perfectors. I'm just leary of that Champagne Gold ever since I swatched it. However the other colors could make it worth the $25 price tag.

I haven't bought into Whisper of Guilt yet--is it really that good?

We've got Ricky's here in the MIA! I'm going to check them out for the Dose of Colors highlighters. I already bought Melot liquid lipstick from them. Get rid of it! I don't know anyone that can wear that color. Also its not even as smooth as the others. My experience with Becca comes from the pressed perfectors. I'm just leary of that Champagne Gold ever since I swatched it. However the other colors could make it worth the $25 price tag.

The price and the fact it has 3 makes it worth it for me. It won't hurt to try, I suppose. Thank you Dilli!

I love Whisper of Gilt.
