it really is!
Would you say it's fairly easy to tone down the glitter? That's the only thing holding me back!

NO! Why...was it BO or sold out? I thought it was weird that mine had to come from somewhere else. Maybe call a local Nordies store & cancel that one. They can get it to you pretty fast plus give you a bunch of samples.
mine was removed from my cart.. might be out of stock, but it does not say so

It is fairly glittery! You can tone it down with a brush & it does kind of disappears. I hate glitter, but this one does not bother me. Its not glitter in a bad way.

Thanks! As long as I can tone it down, I think I'll order it soon. I can handle mild glitter, just not huge pieces on my cheeks

Actually, its the first one where I kind of like the sparkle. It kind of fades on its own but the pink illumination remains.

I have a liquid pink blush -- it's not a commercial product but I am going to try it out. Sounds like it's the base element of this highliter... without any glitter.

this one sounds lovely too.. grr.

Copacabana illuminator - a very slight mauvy taupey ivory & Adelaide - far right in swatches







Copacabana heavier, lighter in the middle & pink on the right.




You can see that applied onto the skin, the pink illuminator isn't really all that glittery.

Thank you! They are both gorgeous, but I think I'll go for Copacabana first. I can see myself doing a lot with it!

You are very very welcome. Photos do not do the illluminator justice. Its so subtle but brings this lovely light to the skin that I feel actually shapes the face when used high on the cheekbones. And yet, it still looks different imo than other highlighters. Yesterday I used a little on my cheekbones without any other makeup, & I still loved it.

It would be nice if you could call a store & have some samples of them sent to you like I did.

I think I'll try that! I'd love to try Super Orgasm especially
