Old Schold!! Anywho! As a highlight what would you compare the Streak one to?
I don't think I can compare the highlight to anything I have. That's one of the reasons why I bought it. I have Cindy-Lou by TheBalm and that's pink toned and Diamonds CBB by Mac is lighter and not as pigmented. The Flushed highlighter is like a light gold. The bronzer looks like a brownish highlight. Of course it's supposed to be a bronzer, but I'm really curious to see if it shows on my face at all. If only one of the colors work, it's going back!

The illuminator sends like it is wow friendly. I've been wondering about it. I just got the Naked BB & loose powder, so can't wait to see how they are. And girl, stop it with the "I'm old" lol
Did you get the dark BB? I'm wondering how it looks on the face because it looks like absolutely nothing on my hand. When I swatch concealers, foundation I swatch on a little mole on my hand to see what it covers. I need some kind of coverage or evening out for that price.

What shade did you get in the loose. I pick it up every time I'm in the store but I put it back down because it seems too red to me.

BECCA UPDATE: I found the Shimmering Powder in Opal!!! Finally!!!! I randomly called a Sephora I will be near tomorrow and they had it!!!! YAY!!!!

My sister loves the liquid matte lipstick from Sephora in red. She's been after me to buy it for a while. I just got the Hourglass one so I'm passing for now.
I tried their liquid lipstick in a purple color and it was great! I want to try hourglass stuff are they really good?

Unlike most of the people on this site the products that I have from Hourglass aren't the touted Radiant Lighting Powders or the Radiant Lighting Blushes. I have Hourglass Opaque Rouge Liquid Lipstick in Icon and one of their soon to be discontinued eyeshadow duos. I mean that the shade I have will be discontinued not the eyeshadows. I cannot tell you enough about the quality of either product ... but I will try.
Lipstick:

  • Beautiful and Vampy Shade
  • Long lasting
  • Opaque Color
  • Comfortable on the lips

Eyeshadow:

  • Blendable
  • Complimentary colors
  • Buttery
  • Pigmented

Out of the two I would suggest trying the lipcolor first since its easily accessible.

Yes, I got it in dark. But I did see a review where the lady was a bit darker than me & she stated it was light. I don't mind that as I don't wear foundation, so that type of coverage would be ok. But I should receive it next week & will let ya know how it do's. @ DILLIGAF I got the powder in dark as well. Since there's not a Sephora close by, I didn't get to swatch it. But my skin is sometimey, meaning I'm red a lot, but every once in awhile I'll have a yellow undertone lol.

This is Sephora related so I'm posting it here (the UD thread is deader than dead): I was walking through Macys and saw the Naked Illuminator, the new Flushed palettes and all that other goodness. I was so excited b/c I wanted to swatch all of that. Sephora only sells the illuminator online and my store will take too long to get the palettes. I really wanted those VIB points, but whatever. I was pleasantly surprised by the illuminator because it's noticeable, but not obnoxious. It gave my hand such a pretty glow. The Streak palette was surprisingly pigmented. The downside is that the bronzer looks more like a highlighter on my complexion. Still pretty, though. The final verdict will be in tomorrow once I've actually tried them on my face. I'm using the illuminator in spots b/c I'm old and I just hope the shimmer particles don't migrate. I don't need all that up in my laugh lines you know?

Dill I have only one of the RLPs and the blushes just didn't speak to me. I wanted to like them because of the hype but it never
happened for me.
I thought it was just me being old

Well I know I'm not old old, but I just think where'd the time go? I used to be the youngest person everywhere I went and now..not so much. :lol: No big deal, though. The laugh lines are for real, though!
