I don't think you could press them. The formula is much creamier than the blushes and they don't dry down, they should send replacements.

These swatches do not do these highlighters justice. These are all fabulous. Lunch Money was the only one that didn't grab my attention as much only because it seemed like an ordinary color or something I have in my vast highlighter stash or have seen before. But it was still beautiful. I think Most Necessary and Highly Waitsted remind me the most of my beloved all time favorite Mac Perfectly Poised duo highlighter. I only wore Teacake on the face yesterday. I wore Nars new multiple stick, Quantum, a bright pink shade, with Teasecake as the highlighter. Teacake was quite a chameleon in this look and much more vibrant than my pics or even how it looked in person when I swatched it on my hand. I think for now I will try to apply the highlighter before the blush so I can get a better since of the color on my skin. So all in all I'm loving these and will probably buy more. These all look so pretty and many look like they will look even better mixed together.

What brushes are you ladies using to apply them?

Not the best quality pictures, but I decided to use some of that highlight! I opened my window so that some of the natural light could come in; the highlight really shines (har har) that way.
I've got Teacake on my cheeks and Spoon in the inner corner of my eyes; also wearing Cookie lippie stix!

Most Necessary is super subtle on my skin, so I layered it with Avalon for extra pop. Out of my stash, the only brushes that were really effective were my Bdellium 974 and Real Techniques highlighter brush. As much as I hate it, the finger method is probably most effective now that I've tried all of mine out.

I haven't tried all my highlighter brushes yet. I almost wish I hadn't ordered so many so that I could try one with all my highlighter brushes before moving on to another color. Don't know if I can do that. I have 165 and 189 from Mac that are highlighter brushes.Not the best quality pictures, but I decided to use some of that highlight!

Okie.
As for the question on brushes, I tried using my ecotools blush brush but that wouldn't really pick anything up. I recently got the core collection from Real Techniques and I use the contour brush from the set to blend the highlight into my blush. I honestly haven't found anything good enough that will pick up the product straight from the pan. I'm on the hunt! For now, I just apply it with my finger and blend with the brush.

I don't have any if them so I was just going based on your swatch. It looked coppery to me
Edit: just saw a swatech of Avalon and THAT looks copper and so pretty!

These sound like the same consistency as my mark (Avon) Touch & Glow Shimmer Cream Cubes... Slightly annoying in that you more than likely end up using your fingers to apply it. Trying to remember what brush I used with it.

I had the same problem with my Ecotools brush, it doesn't work on the actual blushes either.
I really want this, too.Ooooh. I need another red lipstick like another hole in my pocketbook but seriously. I'm sure I may end up with this eventually.
