    Definitely not repurchasing

    I feel like this was such a waste of money. I use it as a base under any highlighter I use but I see absolutely no difference. Even the little sponge that comes with it barely works so you have to use your fingers. Would definitely not recommended wasting your money on this.

    GLow!

    This powder to cream highlighter works wonders on your skin! I recently purchased it and it became one of my favorites. It gives you a really bright long lasting glow

    Perfect for inner eye brightening

    I really like how it comes in a stick format. It also comes with a decent amount of product that will last you. It is SO easy to apply and glides onto my face pretty easily. I must mention that I do use moisturizer and argan oil on my face, or just moisturizer. I’m not sure if this affects application.

    I’m not super into mirror like highlight, so when I apply this on my face, I.e. cheekbones, chin, Cupid’s bow, nose arch, I like that it looks like a slight glow. This product is buildable, so if I really wanted to up the glow, I can take a powder highlighter and apply it on top.

    My favourite thing to do is to use rub product on my ring finger tip and dab it in the inner corners of my eyes. I’ve received MANY compliments for doing this. It truly wake up your eyes. As for the sponge applicator, I usually don’t use it as I find it absorbs the product instead of blending it out. I usually use a concealer brush, or my fingers to blend.

    Love love love

    This is definitely my go-to highlighter. With a light application, it brings out all your highlighted areas just perfectly! It leaves a soft glow for when you are aiming for that healthy-looking glow.

    Love love love and I am always buying it when I run out.

    HG

    This is one of the best highlighters I've come across in awhile. It gives me the desired effect I want without looking too lit up. I use it as a base in my eye corners and apply a powder over it and it looks amazing. I love the stick form it comes in. I love Benefit highlighters and this certainly is no exception.

    Absolute favourite!

    This is the first highlighter I have used and I love it! I always keep coming back to this one! It gives my face such a nice glow and I get so many compliments when I use it! The only thing I would change is the fact that you need to blend it with hands (I don't like using brushes on cream)

    Shine bright like a diamond

    i have used this highlighter every day for years. It's effective, bright and really gives me that pop that I need sometimes. It honestly lasts me forever and it's hands down my favourite product in my makeup kit right now. I do wish the applicator was a little different and did a better job at blending but that's my only complaint.

    Okay, but didn't suit my skin tone

    I received this as a birthday gift at Sephora and was excited to try it out, but it didn't work for me for a number of reasons. For the most part, I think my skin is jut too pale for the shade, but I also found the chapstick-consistency a little but cakey and flaky, and it just did not look natural on my skin. Much better suited to someone with a medium/darker skin tone.

    Great Product

    Received a sample size From sephora.
    While I may always a fan of benefits packaging.. I just don't think this application is love. You can really glad this over foundation without disturbing it. So your best bet is apply with your fingers or a sponge...
    So I feel as if the stick format is wasted.
    I do however like the highlight color. It is a light gold. Very nice.

    Classic champagne highlight

    This product was the first highlight I had ever tried, back before there were hundreds of highlights on the market. I'll admit I was originally drawn to it because of the amazing packaging but the product itself is great too. It's a classic champagne shade with no chunky glitter, just a great pearly shine. It's also pretty easy to customize the intensity through layering or sheering out. This is a cream formula (which dries down to a powdery finish) and I find it tricky to apply over a full face of makeup. I don't tend to reach for it these days because I prefer using powder highlighters that won't disturb my makeup during application, but that's just my preference. Overall great product.
