alleyoop Stack the Odds Mulit-use Face Stacker Review

Hey guys! Today I wanted to review the alleyoop stack the odds stacker. So I was not sure how I would feel about these when I got them. I am very much a powder girly and don't use creams very often. I decided to give them a shot though and I was pleasently surprised by them. There is a bronzer, blush, and highlight in this so I used them in place of those and honestly they are actually really pigmented but also buildable and they look very nice. I feel like they are good for a more dewy look, so if you are going for bright dewy, fresh that kinda thing. I am still more into the matte powder look but this has definately found a place in my routine for the times im in the mood to try out something a little different. I would totally recommend giving them a shot if you are interested in experimenting with cream products.  

Essance Blush Lighter Gradient Blush Review

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Essence Blush Lighter. I got this to test for a makeup video i was filming but decided to review it as well. First of all the color on the pallette is beautiful, I love the Pink to champagne gradiant. As far as wearablility this is pretty good for the price point. It is very glowy, I dont like it as a blush personally because it is just so bright with the shimmer but it makes a good highlighter. This is pretty pigmented and lasts all day with no issues. So as a blush, I am not super into this, it looks odd as a blush so if we are reviewing it as a blush, Id say I do not recommend it. If we review it as a highlighter however I think it is pretty good, to put it in perspective when I put it on today I forgot it was a blush and just used it as highlighter, so take that as you will abt the color/shimmer. It is a good product though overall.  

Revolution X Soph Glow Pallette Review

Hey guys!! I am so excited about these Soph palettes! I absolutely did not need more highlighter but this one was so beautiful I couldn't say no. I have been using this just about daily and it is gorgeous.  This highlight goes on really nicely and blends into the skin really well. It stays put all day long and it really pops.  I would say a little bit goes a very long way so if you aren't into your highlight being intense this might not be your thing or you might have to be very light handed but for me I am loving it. I would say this is for sure a highlight to purchase, it isn't too badly priced and you get alot of product. And for the quality of this I would say you can't beat it. Also the packaging is so pretty! This is one of my favorite highlights at the moment for sure!  

The Beauty Crop Lighting Crew Highlighter Review

Ok guys, holy highlighter, if you like a good pigmented highlight this is for your, this is super pigmented and a little goes a VERY long way. I literally look like I am glowing with this on, it blends out really smoothly and looks super pretty. It also lasts all day long so it can go from day to night with no issue. I will say if you have oily skin I would stay away from this one, because of how glowy it is I feel like it could just look oily once it mixes but normal to dry skin should be good. I really do like this, maybe not for everyday, other than maybe in the summer, but for special occasions or summer I really like it.

The Beauty Crop Glow Milk Liquid Highlighter Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Beauty Crop Glow Milk Highlighter. If you are like me and you like an intense highlight this is totally for you! A little bit of this goes a LONG way and is very very glowy. I put just a drop on each cheek bone and it made them majorly pop. For me personally I love that, I go pretty strong on highlight most days, if you like a more subtle look you would have to be very careful with this and use the tiniest amount to avoid to being to in your face. I really like this though, it stays put all day long and looks awesome, it also blends very easily which I love. The price really is not bad for this, especially considering how long it would last you, I would totally recommned!

Winky Lux Strobing Balm Cream Highlighter Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Winky Lux Strobing Highlighter. I am just now getting around to trying this and as you guys know I LOVE highlighters, so I was very excited to get around to testing this one! I am quite liking it, it adds a nice soft glow to your face and really catches the lights. It has great lasting power and has been lasting all day long for me. It also blends out really well and easily which is nice. I always blend with my fingers and it works really well that way. I will say during the summer or if you have really oily skin this might not be the best for you, being a cream I think it could make you look too shiny with sweating or like oily skin so I would say this is better for the cooler months and t-zone or dryer skin. Overall I do really like this though!

Revlon Rose Glow Hydrating Illuminating Primer

I love the look and smell of this product, it is super pretty and smells very floral.  It blends into your skin super well and isn't greasy which is nice. It is honestly extremely liquidy and goes on very light weight. I do not think it does anything for my pores personally but I do like the base it gives for my foundation and/or concealer.  I feel like it helps a bit with the lasting power of my makeup.  I am not sure I will purchase it I'm the future but I am enjoying using it.

Revolution Roxi Makeup Palette Reviews

Hey guys!!Today I wanted to review the Revolution Roxi Palettes! I recently got these when they came out and I have been loving them so far!! Like honestly just look how gorgeous the colors are, when I saw these I had to have them!! This one is the Ride or Die Palette, this is the more neutral eyeshadow palette and what I have been using for everyday. You can create anything from an office or school look to a sexy date look with this palette and it is super versatile.  It is very pigmented and the colors are pretty true to how they look on the pan which is a very bug deal in my opinion, to me there is nothing worse when I am creating a look and the color I want to use doesn't match what it is in the pan, with this palette that will never be an issue for you which I love! I give this a 10/10, it is awesome! This one here is the Color Burst palette, I am sure you can see why. This one is more of a party look palette, although I have still m...

Zoella Colourpop Pressed Blush and Highlighter Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the blush and highlighter from the Zoella Brunch Date Collection from Colourpop. I really quite like these, starting with the blush: I really appreciate that the blush is very buildable. It does not come off as too much color at once so I can use as much as I want to get the right color. I typically do not like pinky blushes because my cheeks flush so red already, so the fact it comes off so lightly is a big deal to me. As for the highlighter, you all know I LOVE highlighters, I have far far too many and will use way too much, and I love this one. It is very pigmented in a good way, it has some pinky undertones to it but is also very warm and will work amazingly in the summer for bronzey looks. A couple swipes is perfect for a normal day (ok, ok.... one swipe..one swipe is plenty..) but a few would be awesome if you just want to glow! I would totally recommend these for a sweet or sexy spring or summer look, they last ...

Nomad Cosmetics Illuminating Highlighter Review

Hey guys!! Today I wanted to review the Nomad Cosmetics Illuminating Highlighter. This has a very pretty shimmer but is not overly sparkly. It is very pigmented so you do not need to use to much to get a nice glow. This also lasts all day long and doesn't fade at all so you can have a fresh glow all day long. I really like this, although it has not replaced my  holographic highlighter  yet, it is definately good.

Winky Lux Charm Holographic Highlighter Review

So you guys may or may not have noticed (how could you not??) that I am slightly obsessed with highlighters. I love highlighters and use them almost every single day, if I have on makeup, I have on highlighter. So when this became available for points on Ipsy, of course I had to have it. This is definately holographic. It has so much shimmer and sparkle and I love it. I have been using this daily almost since I got it. It adds a perfect amount of glow to your face and can even be built up more. If I am not using this as my main highlight I have still been using it on my cupids bow and around my eyes solely for the amount of light it catches. It can add a glow to any look and it is just beautiful. If you want to bring your makeup game up a notch this will definately do it. I give this a 10/10, would totally recommend!

Wander Glowtion Lotion Illuminator Review

If you have been here long you probably know I LOVE highlighters, this is one of my favorite types of beauty products so I am always excited to try out more. This has very pretty packaging, I love the colors. It is a liquid, as you can probably tell, which I have been loving lately. It is very well pigmented and a little goes a very long way, it takes literally a drop for both cheekbone areas and my cupids bow. I actually have to be quite light with it as to not overdo it, but it looks gorgeous on. I have actually been using this quite a lot recently as I am loving this pigment at the moment. I would totally recommend this if you want to spend a bit more for a nice highlighter (don't feel bad if you can't though, there are some awesome ones at much lower price points, I use both!)

Ulta Beauty Illuminating Sheer Radiant Beauty Powder Review

Hey guys!! Tonight I am reviewing the Ulta Illuminating Sheer Radiant Powder. I love highlighters if you don't know that so I am always excited to try new ones. I really like the shade of this, it is a very glowy warm shade. It adds a really nice glow to a bronzey summery look. It also has really good lasting power and is quite pigmented. I would definately recommend it, I have been using it a lot since getting it. It's currently one of my most used highlighters  :)

The Beauty Crop Glow Milk Review

Hey guys! Tonight I am reviewing The Beauty Crop Glow Milk Highlighter that I got from Birchbox. I am in love with this. It gives the most extra glow ever. It is super pigmented and you only need a tiny bit. It makes you look absolutely radiant. Now I will say if you have very oily skin this might not be the product for you due to it being liquid and adding so much shine, but otherwise I love it. This is currently one of my favs.

theBalm Mary-Lou Manizer Review

Hey guys!! Tonight I'm reviewing the Mary-Lou Manizer Highlighter. This would be good for someone who prefers a more subtle glow. It definitely adds a glow but in a very subtle way so it isn't so in your face. Personally I generally prefer a more in your face highlighter, but this is still nice on maybe a no-makeup makeup day. It has good lasting power and looks nice all day long.

Ulta Beauty Liquid Illuminator Review

Hey guys!! Tonight I am reviewing the Ulta Liquid Illuminator. I love highlighters and I have only tried one other liquid one, which I loved, so I was excited to try this. It scared me when I first squeezed some out because it is very pink. Once you blend it in it gives you a nice romantic kinda glow that is actually very pretty. Now personally I still prefer more bronzy glow ones, but this looks lovely and I think it works very well with some looks. It blends well and it lasts all day for me.

Estate Dew Me Baked Highlighter Review

Tonight I will be reviewing the Estate Dew Me Baked Highlighter. I was very scared of this when I saw I would be receiving it from ipsy.  I have never used a colored highlighter passed like skin tone shades, so this was new for me. I decided to try it out pretty quickly and I was impressed.  It doesn't really come off purpley. It looks like a pretty normal highlight, though very faint. I actually almost want it to be more pigmented on me to be honest, but for a nice light highlight this works quite nicely.

Tini Beauty Barfly Highlighter Review

Hey guys! Today I'm reviewing the Tini Beauty Barfly Highlighter.  Now I prefer powder highlighters to stick ones, but that  being said, this has very good pigment and a lot of shine. It creates a pretty glow and catches the light very well. It's also quite easy to use and very blendable. 

Urban Decay Afterglow Powder Highlighter Review

Hey guys! Today I'm reviewing the Urban Decay Afterglow Powder Highlighter. I really like the shade of this and it looks very pretty. It gives a nice glow and has good lasting power.  I don't like it as much as my Laura Mercier Highlighter but I definitely still recommend this. 

Elizabeth Mott Show Me Your Glow Shimmer Shadow & Highlighter Review

Hey guys!  Sorry I missed yesterday's post.  I got sidetracked. Today though I'm reviewing the Elizabeth Mott Show Me Your Glow Shimmer Shadow & Highlighter.  I haven't used this as am eyeshadow yet but I'm sure it's make a great base or eyeshadow highlight. As a highlighter in general though,  I don't like it. If you like more subtle highlighters you'd probably want this,  for me though, I prefer a more in your face highlight. I like sparkles and shimmer and stuff and this just doesn't have enough for me.  It lasts all day though,  so that's a plus. I wouldn't recommend this as a highlighter if you're like me, but if your new to makeup or onky want a tiny highlight you'd like this.
