Hi guys, I'm new here, but would like to ask a favour. Can anyone swatch any of these together for me please, so I can figure out which one to buy?
--- Becca Topaz
--- Becca Opal
--- TheBalm Betty Loumanizer
--- MAC Gold Deposit
--- Laura Geller Gilded Honey
I already have MAC's Gold Deposit, but want to exclude any that are too close to it (if any are).
Thanks!!!

No problem! I've been trying to get my hands on WNW Hollywood Boulevard but it's always the shattered last one on the display or the slot is empty

Ugggh, that sucks. That's a good one. It's always at Duane Reade here, which is also Walgreen's.

Hi guys, I'm late to the posting party but have been reading the posts in this thread.
I got Champagne Pop but found it underwhelming so I'm taking it back. On the flip side, those JD Glow highlighters are the BIZNIZ. I got: Marilyn Monroe, Beyoncé, Rozay, Gabrielle Union and Saks n Fifth. All beautifully pigmented and wonderful.
Other highlighters in my growing stash:
TheBalm Marylou Manizer
TheBalm Cabana Boy
Colour Pop - Wisp, Avalon,Monster, Butterfly Beach, Highly Waisted, Tasty
Wet n Wild - Reserve your Cabana
Wet n Wild - Rose Champagne Glow
Wet n Wild Megaglo - Catwalk Pink
Wet n Wild Silverlake Collection - Fair Trade Coffee and Sunset Junction
Ruby Kisses - Flushed Glow,
MAC Superb EDSF
MAC Stereo Rose
NYX Gleam
NYX Sunbeam
Benefit Sunbeam
Benefit Watts Up - Sample size
MAC Barbados Girl lustre drops
I think that's it for now.

@pinkcrush I'm wearing it here.Same here. She's mine. Soon. Ha!
I'm rocking it today. It's so pigmented, I love it!
I have a cart running here. Almost purchased last night then fell asleep. OMG, old age. Literally, I checked my phone this a.m when I woke up and it was on the Colourpop cart.I looked at Happy Hour initially then wondered if it was too dark. I'm kind of all over the place with the bronzers.
Nice!!
Omg you're lucky. I get at the very least one a day. Hilarious, they stalk you when they're slow then diss you when they have something hot. I can't. Did you get any Huggables?

SWATCHES!!!
@Maria Dean Here ya go! From Left to Right:
Global Glow, Topaz, Opal, Betty Lou
@DILLIGAF - JD Glow Swatches for you! From Left to Right:
Beyonce, Gabrielle Union, Ariel, Egyptian, Pistachio
Some of these have a high sparkle factor which isn't my favorite characteristic in a highlighter. I wish the particles were smaller and finer in some of the shades but I think Beyonce has the softest, least sparkly finnish, and maybe then Pistachio after that. I also like that Beyonce is't crazy metallic, although I don't mind metallic highlighters but I don't prefer them either. I might pick up Saks N Fifth at a later date. We'll see...
