Highlighters Of Three

 
 
 
Let's go through these three highlighters and see how well they perform. 
 
The benefit girl meets pearl is a cream base highlighter of a light pinky shade. It is the sheerest color out of the three because when you blend it out you just get a nice sheen. I was so impressed that it dried pretty fast because some cream products stay goopy.
It also lasted the whole day on my face without fading over messing up my makeup underneath it. It is also not an over the top highlighter so I can apply all over my face and not look like a disco ball. I just get the nicest glowy skin with this product and highly recommend it if you want a suble glowy highlighter. It retails for $30 but it comes with so much product I know I'll get great use out of it becausue I use it everyday.
 


Girl Meets Pearl,Watts up,Mary Lou
 
 
 
 
I received the benefit watts up from Sephora as the birthday gift and even though its a travel size it still has a lot of product to it. Unlike the girl meets pearl you don't want to apply this over your entire face. It is a extremely pigmented gold champagne color that comes off so noticeable on the face. With saying that I only put it on the top of my cheek bones and make sure to blend it out. Make sure to sure rub and warm it up with you fingers first because its a drier cream product. The full size retails for $30
 

 
 
Now onto the The Balm Mary manizer highlighter. I've hit pan already which is very rare for me on a highlighter. It is literally such a pigmented champagne color that goes so well with my skin tone. Just like with the watts up highlighter its best to be light handed with this.
I apply this one under my brow bone,down my nose and cheek bones. It is an instant perk me up for the face. It livens it up and really accentuation my cheekbones. Mary lou is really a fool proof highlighter. It blends so effortlessly that I know this highlighter will be a staple in my makeup collection. I don't only use this product on my face it also looks so good on legs and neck area!
It retails for $24

My Sephora Birthday Gift!!

I'm so pleased with the Sephora Birthday Gift this year as my Birthday is in a couple of days.
It comes with the Watts up Highlighter cream stick and the They're Real mascara! It was such a nice pair, I've been wearing both items since I received the kit.
 
The mascara is my favorite mascara ever. With the silicon brush it coats all my lashes giving them huge volume. I had once purchased this mascara earlier in the year and run out and had not bought another since I thought I could find a dupe. Well I still haven't so I'm glad I got this sample size of it.
 
Pros:* Generous amount of volume
*Wet formula mascara
           *Stays all day,Doesn't smudge
 
Cons:The price



The Highlighter is so pigmented!! It is so different from normal powder highlights that can sometimes be chalky. This cream stick gives a glow from within sheen that I have never gotten from another highlighter. The color is a light gold color that makes your skin look dewy but not greasy.
For application I run it over my fingers to warm up the product and then dot and press it on  my check bones and it just melts into your skin not inter fearing with your other makeup.
*A tip to really give your face a great pop it under your brow bone*


I just wanted to end this post saying Happy birthday to you nomatter if your birthday was yesterday or way earlier in the this year!
