(HAA): Highlighter Addicts Anonymous

[montREALady]

OK, I'm all glowy now. Highlighter #1: Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick- Apricot (from CCO)- you ladies gave me a lemming to try my first Shimmer Brick! Highlighter #2: MAC Mineralize Skinflash- Soft & Gentle (from CCO, in the old packaging)- I went back and forth on this so many times at the counter, so I pulled the trigger at CCO. Next up: Lightscapade. I thought I was done; I went to work. Then, I ran up to NM to pick up my TF foundation that I ordered for store pickup. I saw that my SA was working, so I wandered over to chat with her about the ombres. And then I made the mistake of saying to her that I was planning to skip Moodlight because there was no way it could work on me. It was like I'd just said "challenge issued."  And holy crud, it's stunning on. So yes, Tom Ford Moodlight followed me home. Three highlighters in one day for the person who didn't wear highlighter until recently. *mumble* enablers

Next time I get to the CCO I'm going to need LightscapadeLightscapade, it's gorg. I chose Stereo Rose over it last time.

Mine didn't have it; it's merely a wish that I can find it at a CCO.

WELL DONE!!!!!! I glad you didn't skip Moonlight!

Yes, Lightscapade is good! Okay so what about Dior Diorskin Nude Cosmopolite Illuminator and
Charlotte Tilbury Dreamy Glow highlighter??? Also, Charlotte Tilbury Bronze & Glow Medium/Dark and Sun Tan & Sun Light. Oh, and I almost forgot to mention
NARS Jubilation.

It looks pretty, although not like a dupe for the Hourglass Ambient Light powders.

Ditto. It is nice though indeed...that website is trouble. I need to stay away.

I have a few items from that brand coming from Ulta... Couldn't resist the combo of an extra 20% off code for online (used mine in-store), gift card, and points. Will report back to the class when they come in. Even with Ulta slow shipping, should be probably Thursday-ish.

I bought Becca Champagne Gold today!

I know everyone hates it. But somebody liked it. Was it @Twinkle_Twinkle?

There's a Lord & Taylor next to Sephora and I never go in there. I just thought "let me run in just to see what they carry." Well lo and behold a Becca Counter with Champagne Gold staring at me. It was in the regular display and labeled. I rubbed some on my hand and really liked how it looked when I blended it a lot. The SA went to look for it but she is not the regular counter person. I forgot to tell her it was probably in special packaging and I came around to the drawer and there were tons of them. Also they had the 3 liquid highlighter set. I think they got all of Sephora's leftovers. I like the idea of layering them that was mentioned here so I'm giving it a go.

The only thing is . . . Bobbi Brown Nectar was to be next on my list. I was thinking of ordering it today maybe. I thought I already had it but it was Apricot that I had. I could have sworn Nectar was the one I was going crazy over last summer. I'm wondering how I ended up with Apricot instead. Maybe Apricot was more limited so that's how I decided. I don't know but I want it.

YAAAAAS! @Twinkle_Twinkle and I are the only ones who like Champagne Gold.

But it's so pretty! You're going to love it!

I picked up the Sephora Radiant Luminizing Drops in Ultralight today at the Sephora VIBR event and I'm totally all

about them. Superfine shimmer, thin consistency for easy blending, and I can mix them with primer/foundation/BB cream/unicorn tears. They're kind of a much thinner version of the Beccas SSP liquid (which I quite like, but it can run just a little thick for me). The Ultralight shade is kind of a pale bronze, not too warm, not too cool. Just lovely.

Where was this, Manhattan?

I've heard of this!

But I thought the Hourglass ALP dupe was actually the Makeup Revolution [Highlight] Radiant Lights Palette. I've heard a lot of good reviews about it. I wanted to get my hands on that palette, but Ulta doesn't have it! Urmmm...but I think I would be just fine with having that Glow shade on its own, though.
This is one of the better swatch pics I found online that offer a good look at the palette's colors.

The Nars MA was raving over the mascara saying "you have to get it." I think she forgot she gave me a sample. I don't know what I did with it. Yikes! I just have 2 many mascaras open at the moment to buy another right now. I love Le Volume so I will try it soon.

LE volume is my fav mascara & the only one I was using until yesterday when I bought the new NARS one lol. The brush is longer with longer bristles than Chanel but it's a great mascara!

You bought Polenta/Cornmeal???? Honestly, the color is a bit over the top but it can work. I tried giving it more of a chance, and it really can work. It's just not and
never will be a go-to highlighter for me. I happen to LOVE Nectar----very pretty.
