Highlighting Powder/Balm/Cream

dancingqueen

Just looking for advice on people's favourites - budget and otherwise!

I am seeking some new makeup items, and highlighter is one of the main ones I am stuck on!

Hi there dancingqueen, a favourite of mine at the moment which i bought recently is urban decay naked blusher flushed compact,its a three in one highlighter,bronzer for contouring and definition,and highlighter for brightness at the top of the cheekbones and blusher for that added flush..

You put the bronzer on the side of the face to slim the face down and contour the face,adding great definition,which would make you ready for a close up,then blusher(which is a lovely pink tone),on the apple of the cheek where your cheeky smile is,and then highlighter to round it off at the top of the cheekbones,it really makes a difference to the face.

This sounds like a great product! Thanks for your advice

No problem..Ive tried other highlighters out there and nothing really compares to this one,look it up under urban decay in debenhams online to see what its like..

Just so you get an idea of it,very easy to use,you can even get a demonstration of the tester naked flushed at the urban decay counter,i tried it at their counter and i saw the difference it made to me so i just had to buy it..

Hard Candy's Moon Glow is a great budget highlighter. It's shimmery but not glittery and lasts well. For those who prefer an inexpensive powder product.

I love MaryLou manizer by the Balm, it's really reflective but not chunky glitter. It's only £15 on feel unique so not too bad on the purse either!

Another good one is benefits high beam moonglow its a bit on the expensive side but you only use a small amount of it..

Very easy to apply over make up just on the top cheekbones,the only thing i dont like about it is that its not a powder..

One i used to use years back was 17 glitter shimmer highlighter it was cheap done the job but its no longer on the market..

This sounds like something I am looking for - Hard Candy is not available here though, is that right?

Readily available on Amazon.co.uk and Ebay, but if you know someone heading to the States get them to go to any drugstore/Target, I can't remember how much it is, but its about $5 or less.
