(HAA): Highlighter Addicts Anonymous

I like Rose Gold as a blush and highlight too. I have to try it as an inner corner highlight. I dropped mine the other day *cringe* and need to crush it and press it back with some alcohol. *sigh* Sometimes I wear RG over Pomegranate too and it gives it such a gorgeous glow. I have Flame, Pink Sprint and Pumpkin (the orange one). I need to get them all! lol. I also have their Contour Kit in Dark and their Face Form Kit in Medium (the one with the contour shade and two highlighters).  Aruba.... the one that got away! I have Sahara but for some reason I don't think I've ever worn it. I'm going to try to use it this week. Swatched it blends straight into my skin

Awwwwww....yeah, Aruba is a great blush but I think there's a similar shade in their Pumpkin blush set. I use Sahara with a heavy hand...hope it ends up working for you. I own there contour kit in dark as well but thought about buying the face form kit....do you think it's worth getting?

I have Pumpkin but I still want Aruba *sigh*. I would say if you want the face form kit only for the contour shade, don't bother because you can achieve the same effect with a lighter hand. However, the 2 highlight shades in the Medium face form are completely different from the one in the Dark kit so it's a good extra overall. I'm still thinking if I want to pick up the Dark Face Form Kit as well. How many contour products does one need? lol.

I had to go to two different Sephora's but I got my hands on this bad boy! The SA had to ask permission to sell it to me and when she brought it out from the back I gave her a hug (and will leave a baller review for her)!





Here are some not so great swatches. I'll try and take some better ones with daylight soon. From Left to Right: Moonstone, Champagne Pop, Opal. First impressions are that it is pretty, that it's more golden than Moonstone (which has more of that soft white-gold Albatross thing going for it) and Opal (which leans peach) and I think the finish is closer to Opal (Moonstone seems more subtle to me). I'm just glad I don't have to play that internet shopping game but may the force be with all of you ladies at 12 PM tomorrow!

Hey everyone! The Jaclyn Hill Highlighter with BECCA will be available at ALL Sephora Stores and Sephora inside JCPenney stores (even the JCP stores that do NOT carry Becca). It will be featured on their "HOT NOW" display in most stores for the upcoming animation. Some stores are getting them in early so they might sell out before it's officially launched. The best thing is to call your local Sephora and speak with a Cast Member. Happy shopping!

Looks great on her. Sadly, the beca pressed highlighters are prone to breakage.

I'm on instagram looking at SO many pictures of women HOARDING the JH Champagne Pop highlighter I'm talking people have bought up to 8!!!!! WTF?! When limited edition items come out, there should seriously be a limit on how many one can buy! I feel bad for anyone that has to go in a sephora store to get it because these females ain't playin fair hboy:

Here is a swatch of CP. Sorry the lighting was bad today, it was raining all day...

 

[smileyt06]

Yayyyyyy I was able to snag one today. I called my local JCP sephora and they told me they didn't know when they were getting it. Called today and wahhhlaaa they had it and we're selling it. Now I can just go to work tomorrow and not have to order. I was so blessed I took the 2nd to last one they had left. The SA goes, Look behind me, everyone called to have it placed on hold" lol

Gerard Cosmetics- Lucy In Basket??? Need help deciding whether to get Becca Rose Gold or Color Pop highly Waisted? Highly Eaisted Supposedly has more glitter/shimmer And Need to decide between Urban Decay Illuminating Powder in Aura or Color pop Teasecake Please let me know your thoughts. Is it true the Colorpop can expire in a year? Also I thought I read that a good brush for the mineralize skin finishes was the MAC 150? Is that correct ? They are not as smooth as Becca.

Lol, even though I wasn't going to get it, I did fall for the hype bc I'm a crazy collector of pretty, LE makeup. When I walked in and they were taking the few they had received out of the box and preparing for tomorrow's release, I was like, ok this is meant to be. I had to get it. It's not unique at all, but it's still a beautiful product!!
