Thanks for letting me know Meddy. I wouldn't use it as a regular cream highlight as I find creams so messy and I never have enough time in the morning to play. I will most likely mix it with foundation both powder and liquid.

You know I didn't even think of that. Of course IMATS would be the place to grab some books. I have to set aside a few dollars for 1 or 2.

I am not WOC but I really like it. It gives enough color and I think it would compliment not just lighter skin. It's one of the nicest shimmer bricks

[COLOR=0000FF]I posted this in the Sephora thread but it definitely belongs here too[/COLOR] [COLOR=181818][COLOR=0000FF]My Sephora package arrived full of Estée Lauder[/COLOR] :heart: [COLOR=0000FF]:[/COLOR][/COLOR] [COLOR=181818] [/COLOR] [COLOR=181818] [/COLOR] [COLOR=181818] [COLOR=0000FF]I'm not enamored by the eyeball packaging but I do like the product so far.  The highlighter has a cream to powder vibe.  Once I swatched it with a brush, i ran my finger over it and it didn't budge.  I didn't swatch the powder, which is lovely because that was already done up thread a bit.  Swatch #1 is EL Heatwave.  Swatch # 2 is the Iridescent Ball highlighter.  SAME color, different finish.  I'm really liking it swatched.  I'll test both items on my face for date night, tonight.  The kabuki brush is enormous---very dense and very soft.  It's performance and how it holds up to frequent washing remains to be seen.[/COLOR][/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]I almost forgot to note that next to modern Mercury, IB really looks more like HW and MM appears pinker.  Also, the were at Sephora with VIBR early access.  I've heard the powder is already sold out.  I expect they will restock it for general purchase.[/COLOR]

I saw it it someone's haul this week and I've been lemming. It's really pretty. Maybe I will snag it tomorrow.

I wore them for date night. Since it was my first time wearing the Iridescent ball highlighter and had no idea about its staying power, I set it with Heatwave.
The powder is AMAZING and the kabuki brush is insane and perfect for use with the powder. It's not a necessity, but I happen to collect brushes.

Does the pink actually look pink on your face Monsy? I might have to add this to my list.

Have any of u girls tried using any of the various MUFE Artist Shadows as a highlighter??? I recently picked a bronze shade and fell in love! I wish they had names not a id # I liked the color payoff so much I went back and bought I-524 which is a shimmery pink champagne color. It looks really nice with MAC Plum Foolery and Breath of Plum blushes which I mix together...I'm totally addicted to ombré blush looks, contour, blush, highlight and even a highlight highlight if I wanna get fancy haha

Any WOC try the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Pink Quartz?

I've been interested in that. I swatched a pink one at a CCO in summer but I can't remember if it was that or if I liked it.

Will definitely put that on my list. I am dying to get Sam Fine's Fine Beauty but I can never find a reasonably priced hardcover one on amazon. I'll check out Rae Morris' too. I've been interested in that. I swatched a pink one at a CCO in summer but I can't remember if it was that or if I liked it. I've seen a couple that I want to try both as blushes and highlighters. What was the number of the bronze one you liked?
