(HAA): Highlighter Addicts Anonymous

[Yazmin]

Alright. It's in my bag to be returned next time I'm in the neighborhood of a Sephora. Medgal, I'm comparing the effect I get from Fire Lust and Bronze Glow. Both leave an obvious (to me) sparkle on my skin that I don't care for. While I returned Bronze Glow, I am, for the time being, keeping one of the two bottles of Fire Lust I purchased and will try different ways of using it and see what I like best.

So there Estee Lauder highlighters. Are they all limited edition?

I see Yazzy! have you tried FL mixed in your foundation?

Hey Dilli!! Yes they are, and for me, they trump Armani, Chanel & Dior with their powder gelees, as they're called. I've gone through two each of Modern Mercury
(my favorite) and Heat Wave, and I'm working on a third of each. I have everyone that EL has ever released. They buff to the smoothest sheen I have ever seen. Their
most recent one is Crystal Baby---it's pink. I wasn't fond of it until I used it on a whim and then got a glimpse of it in natural light. It's gorgeous on. A Specktra angel
found the backups that will soon be my primaries at a CCO in Florida!!!!!!

Girl I have Becca Topaz and as a fellow HA I think you need it. It's perfect. I love it. It's so smooth and buttery. It was my first Becca pressed shimmering skin perfector. You need her in you life. I have great swatches in the Becca thread.

I have Topaz and Rose Gold and

them both. Topaz is

I tried the Charlotte Tilbury Wonderglow Beauty Flash Primer which can be worn under or over foundation. The only thing it did for me under my foundation was to break
me out. When I wore it over my foundation thinking I could avoid another skin eruption------bam. I saw what the product was all about. I did have a glow and thought it
looked amazing. BTW---my skin did not break out again.

I have Opal, Rose Gold & Champagne Gold which I cannot bring myself to wear. I have prominent cheekbones and it would look like I put polenta on my cheeks instead of in my mouth! Opal is my fav so far of the Becca highlighters. I was recently strong-armed and badgered into ordering Topaz by a group od Specktra thugs led by one @DILLIGAF . Oh and someone named SassyWonder who really frightened me. It was a gang effort so I relented. I hope I love it too!!!

You WILL love Topaz, Meddy! Then report back so we can say we told you so, lol!

I returned Champagne Gold today. No regrets.

I'm debating getting Copper Diamond. If I have Bronze Shimmer Brick, do I need CD?

I'll definitely report back. I don't have BSB but I love Copper Diamond. I would think the differences are enough to warrant having both.

This highlighter junkie bought another 2 highlighters this weekend. Anyone heard of Dose of Colors? I just found out about this brand through Youtube or Instagram. I don't remember but I looked up on the store locator that it was available at Ricky's. I went there in search of a lipgloss and found it but was surprised to see highlighters. I don't know if they were really that different as I have so many but I just couldn't leave them in the store. They were kind of pricey too. I was expecting drugstore prices. NOT. $28 and change each. Yikes. I bought the peachy one and the bronzey one. I still kind of want the pink one. Oh what is an HA to do?

Oh and I was on my way to Sephora and was contemplating Becca Topaz powder. I had the liquid version years ago when it first came out but never used it. I didn't know much about highlighting then and I think I just put too much on. But after this purchase I skipped it.

Any experience with this brand?
I want the lippie products!

I swatched the Bobbi Brown Bronze Glow Highlight Powder today. In comparison to the Copper Diamond it's very chunky. The colors are similar. Bronze Glow is deeper. On the back of my hand it was clearly a chunkier product. I'm glad I have Copper Diamond instead.

So strange! I just swatched these two and had the opposite reaction. Bronze Glow seemed smoother to me. I applied both with a cotton ball. My favorite applicator for in store blush/highlighter swatching. Now come to think of it, the Bronze Glow looked more worn down than the copper diamond. That may have accounted for the difference. The colors were quite similar.

Exchange that cornmeal and get Topaz!!! DO IT!!! DO IT NOW!!!!!

I did it Dilli!!!!!!

 

[DILLIGAF]

I'm really itching to pick up a new highlighter. Something about that beautiful glow, I can't get enough of!

If you ladies had to pick oooonly one from your collection, which would it be?
