I want both lipsticks, Dreamy Glow Highlighter

& that beautiful lip & cheek glow!!!
You know I struggle with opening products (remember the balls
lol.gif
) and cream highlighters. I don't know what it is about them.
The cheek & lip glow is lovely!!!

Maybe I'm more comfortable with cream blushes because I wear them under my foundation---hard to screw it up that way!

I struggle w/cream highlighters, but I love the current powder Film Star Bronze & Glow.

The packaging is adorable too.

I hope it's a good formula---I'm up for gold & bronze too!
I really like cream highlighters, especially Riri Diamonds

Cream blushes are a struggle for me! I swatched the powder duo last week and I loooved the highlighter but the bronzer looked a bit orangey and not at all impressive on me, so I'll wait for this one.

Maggie I could use some tips on applying cream highlighters. I also have RiRi Diamonds and I think I used it ONE TIME!!! Cream blushes were a struggle for me until
I started applying them UNDER my foundation. It's amazing how the blush looks as if it's coming from within and not just sitting on your face.

I usually just pat it on with my fingers and then blend the edges with Mac 188 (or again with fingers), it gives a beautiful glow! If I want to go all out, I set it with a powder highlighter. I only wear it on nights out though, I think it will be a bit too extreme under direct sunlight.
I have to try to apply the blush under my foundation, what always stops me is that I use full coverage ones and I feel like the blush will be completely covered.

I have a bit of an aversion to putting my fingers in product. I have tried applying with the 131 and then setting it with a powder highlighter ---see already two steps! With powder it's one & done!! I also use full-coverage foundation but you control how much you're applying over the blush, so you just go lightly with it in the area of your blush. The beauty is that if you make a mistake with the blush you can just cover it with your foundation....you don't need to be so precise when applying the blush under your foundation. Maybe try & play around with it on your day off---when you're not in a hurry until you're comfortable with the technique.

I don't like using my fingers either, but if it's the only way to bring out the full potential of a product, I'll do it. I'll try using cream blush today and I'll report, if I've had any success

Did the Matte Revolution lipsticks launch at all in the US? I haven't really kept up. I love my bronze and glow so I'm definitely interested im the cream version. Just hope it makes it over to the US.

If you don't want to dip your fingers in product, you could scoop a bit out with the tip of a brush or a makeup spatula (if you have one). :nods:

The cream Filmstars on the Go palettes are in the US; the Matte Revolution lippies haven't launched here yet.

I found an Instagram a few weeks ago saying the matte lipsticks weren't releasing here until September

I know but I think that I'll always take more and I don't want to waste a LE product, especially from the RiRi collections

I just make sure that my hands are super clean before I use it.
