(HAA): Highlighter Addicts Anonymous

Ah yes, it is super coppery-bronze so I can see why you would shy away from it. Are you originally from Australia or just moved there recently? Sydney is one of the places to visit that are on my bucket list.

Sydney is on my Live It list. I would love to go there!!

I might snag CP, it's still available.

Well what are you waiting for Pretty???

Ay yi yi, this thread is super buggy with the ads! My computer was sputtering so badly that I was afraid I'd never get to respond.

I may be in low buy mode, but I'm not in punitive depravation mode. I happened to be leaving work and turned on my phone a few minutes after CP launched initially and snagged one. I'll have it Monday.

That said, I'm debating the new ColourPop (most of my highlighters are from ColourPop anyhow) and whether I should get Becca Moonstone or Opal next. Yes, you enablers, I will eventually buy both. But both isn't the fiscal answer I'm choosing at this moment.

Hi there Starletta

It somehow feels like you were speaking directly to me because my answer is always "get both."

I do support fiscal conservatism and for
that reason suggest you go with Color Pop for now.

*whispering* savesavesave... LOL

I read somewhere that the Colorpop is only available for a few days and it is super cheap. Moonstone and Opal aren't going anywhere so take some time and play with the Champagne Pop and see if you want to go darker or lighter from there.

Sound reasoning ICL

I was allowing one limited edition treat. That's all you get for the entire month so use it wisely

Hello beauties my name is arely and I am new as well . I have been subscribed for a wile but was scared I would be judged for my makeup addiction especially in highlighters.i am around nc 35 and was wondering if those highlighters from jd glow would suit my color what would u recommend

and WELCOME Arely. I'm glad you've come out of lurkers mode and joined the fun, This is absolutely the last place that you'll be judged about your makeup addiction. We're all birds of a feather in that regard. Some of the ladies are pretty expert w/the JD Glow highlighters and can push steer you in the right direction. I've not yet ventured down that particular rabbit hole

So I finally pulled the trigger on my JD Glow order. I got Ariel, Beyonce, Egyptian, Gabrielle Union and Pistachio. THEN I went ahead and ordered Bobbi Brown Sunset Beach Shimmerbrick because I'm already in too deep with these BB Shimmerbricks, I have nearly a complete collection so I can't stop now… I also added the MAC's Yuzu Fix+ in that order because it's sold out at MAC stores. If I like it I'll get a backup.

This week I also got the JH Becca Highlighter, my UD order of eyeshadows from the F&F sale arrived (but I'm returning almost half of what I got and I'm only keeping 4 eye shadows and UDPP), MAC's Prolongwear Powder (I have high hopes for this baby - it's supposed to be waterproof and judging from an experience today I think it might actually repel water which is cray cray) and the Becca Mineral Foundation Powder (also going back, thank goodness).

Now I'm going to go have several seats. I'm done for July at this point (but my Sephora wish list keeps growing…).

That sucks, I'm sorry. It was in stock when I ordered in the wee hours of the morning and it's showing as in-stock now on the website. If the order hasn't already shipped maybe you can email them and ask them to tack it on? I'm excited about Yuzu. I hope I like it and if I do I'll probably order a BU. I've been using a Fix+ in my daily foundation routine so I'm going through it pretty quickly and have no doubt that I'd use up a BU in a reasonable amount of time.

I'm originally from San Francisco then spent 5 years in Ireland and I just moved to Perth here in Australia. Fingers crossed we both make it to Sydney some time soon!

   [COLOR=0000FF]:haha: All in jest of course.  The thread would be the same w/o Shars, Dilli, Vee and the rest of our master enablers.  I'm glad you mentioned Indiscretion.  I need to[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]     make an effort to reach for it [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]more often.  today I'm wearing EL's Heat Wave, one of my old favorites.[/COLOR]    [COLOR=0000FF]Sydney is on my Live It list.  I would love to go there!![/COLOR]

Meddy, Heatwave is so beautiful! I'm constantly seeing it on Instagram and love how it looks great on lots of skin tones. So versatile! At the moment I'm in Perth which is so far away from Sydney ): So excited for both of us to go see it!

 

[thingsloversdo]

Also seriously craving the JD Glow highlighters! I'm eyeing up Beyoncé, Ariel and Rozay! Rozay would be seriously delicious as an eye shadow or a super soft/light highlight when I'm tan! Considering using a forwarding service for these but I'm worried about how soft they are in case they break in transit. Has anyone had one arrive broken or know if they're fragile?

I ordered from the UD sale too. It was supposed to be delivered Thursday. It was not and the status hasn't been updated. Strange for UPS.

An idea I have.. Tell me if you would buy it if they came out with it. Becca shimmering skin perfector pressed-shade-candy cane. Special packaging. The actual product white and white stripes. When swirled together makes a shimmering pink color.
