    Je ne l'ai pas aimé

    L'effet n'est pas du tout naturel, le produit n'illumine pas mais brille et il est plein de petites paillettes, alors l'appliquer sur tout le visage n'est pas une bonne idée, si vous aimez les paillettes peut-être l'appliquer juste sur les pommettes quoique même là je n'aime pas le rendu.

    Not enough shine

    I thought I would love this illuminator because I like a lot of other nyx products. This product tho has more of a chicly glitter then a sheen. Don't reckoned if you're looking for something more subtitle

    Illuminé ta journée

    Cet illuminateur est un excellent produit et très abordable lorquon parle du prix. Il peux autant s'appliquer avec les doigts que avec un pinceau ou une eponge a maquillage et il te fais illuminer le visage comme si tu étais né pour briller.

    This is a great product for the money - I find this brand to not be too expensive therefore very accessible and great for playing around with new makeup trends and colours before. Not the best quality but perfect for on-the-go!

    Not my favourite

    Didn't find this to be the best product. I didn't mind it mixed into foundation. As a liquid highlight on the face it was very subtle. I also didn't like the sticky texture.

    This is really nice, and perfect to put on under your foundation. I used a little bit to highlight the cheek and eyebrow, a little goes a long way with this product!!

    I received a sample of this in my monthly Ipsy bag and I have to say that this product is really all or nothing. One of my main concerns being extremely pale is that it would be too dark, but used subtly it's barely even noticeable (in my attempts to take a before and after picture I couldn't see a difference) until the lights hits; it's a nice subtle, shimmer.

    You can also use it with more product, but if you're very pale that will be too dark and come out very golden, more like a bronzer. I think this shade would be pretty amazing with tanned or even darker skin tones, just not well suited to extreme pale skin tones unless you are looking for a barely there shimmer, or extreme bronzer.

    One thing I really like about this though, is the versatility. You can mix this with almost any product to give it a subtle (or not so subtle) shimmer. It definitely has a place in my makeup kit, but I would say it's more suited to darker skins. Would look amazing on particularly dark skin, in my opinion.

    I just recently got this a few weeks ago. I've been experimenting with makeup and I decided to try illuminator this month! I love NYX Cosmetics, so it wasn't a difficult decision for me. The price was great and the formula is awesome. It's not heavy on my face, which I like when wearing makeup. I'll probably be testing out a different color next month! :)

    I believe that this may look a bit nicer on women of color. I have noticed that on fairer skin it just looks "wet". I personally love this product. I like to use it in different ways depending on the look i am going for. Sometimes i mix it in with my foundation to give me a dewy natural glow . I receive many complements and it looks very natural. On other occasions i like to put some on the bridge of my nose, cupids bow, temples and the apples of my cheeks anywhere the light hits.
