Yikes I'm really behind in this thread. I skimmed through and I'm loving everyone's amazing photos! Just wanted to share a few pics of the items I picked Up. So far I've used Oh, darling and I love it! It's not super unique, but it's still beautiful. I'm surprised as to how much I love SOG, it's beautiful!

Can someone please swatch SOG next to Magnetic Appeal and Double Definition? I have both of those so if either of those is a dupe, I can chill. I have WOG (and I love that the WnW Fergie highlighter someone swatched earlier is a kinda dupe, since I own all of those too) so OD isn't coming off as a must have. I'm trying to see if it's worth the hunt. Thanks to whoever posted ER next to Strong Woman because that removed ER from my list. So, save for an eyeshadow or three, I'm likely skipping most of this collection.

I can do so this weekend if it doesn't come up before then.

Girl I returned OD because it looked like Champagne Pop, Hollywood Boulevard, a cheap Forever21 highlighter and a plethora of others that I own... Now I will say it doesn't look the same while looking at a heavy swatch but once it's blended out, as the majority of us will wear it, the differences become almost nonexistent. The formula is nice yes, but it doesn't beat Becca no ma'am! I took OD home, swatched and compared and went back to Nordstroms to swap it for SOG which was different from anything else I have in my growing collection. If u have WOG trust me u r good!!!

I 100% agree. I got OD cause of the hype. I will wear it, it is a nice gold highlight in cute packaing, but I could have skipped and been fine. SOG is lovely, but I knew I wouldn't use it often and could not justify purchasing it. I'm not a collector, just a make up lover who needs to cut back a little bit for the holidays!

That's great news! You're right about not noticing the difference because I rotate highlighters, depending on what's closest and most people don't even notice. I notice and my makeup sister-friends notice but regular people? They have no clue.

You and me both! I'm moving soon and will be at The Makeup Show in about a week so I need to be conservative.

Thank you for that review. I am new to the highlighter world. I do not have Champagne Pop, WOG, et al. I do now have Diamonds, Shaft of Gold, Oh Darling, Magnetic Appeal, and one or two others. My stash is so small I am not even qualified to be in the Highlighter Thread.

Ladies, please don't sleep on the pink lip bag. The lip liner and lipstick are gorgeous and pretty unique being that you'd assume it's just another pink lipstick but trust me...it looks nothing like Pink Nouvea, Snob, Girl About Town, or any of the other pinks in the current permanent collection. I don't know how to quite describe it but this pink leans purple and ugh just beautiful. The lipglass though is whatever lol.
