Summer Time Calls For Highlight!

round up, highlighters, makeup, collection, beauty, revolution, newlook, pure colour, collection, summer, glow, shimmer,

I have a big obsession with highlighters like most beauty bloggers these days and I love talking about them. I have a few posts about highlighters already under my belt including Highlighting on a budget and Shopping my stash | Highlighters  but now it is time to talk about my all time favourite highlighters in my collection. 

I'll start with my only pallet in the post, the Collection Contour Kit - Highlight and Sculpt. This is one pallet where I can safely say I make use of both the shades in this kit. The highlighter is so beautiful and super pigmented for the price of £4.19. Unlike some palettes you actually get a generous size of product so it should last my for a long time unless I start going crazy with the highlight. 

I have two Revolution highlighter products which I love to pieces and always go back to. I have had the Vivid Baked Highlighter in Peach Lights for nearly a year now and I haven't even hit pan yet which is amazing. I do love powder highlight as I think it tends to last longer and this powder is so pigmented and blends so lovely on the skin and on top of other makeup. I also have it in Pink lights which is beautiful to wear as well and is as pigmented as the peach version. 

round up, highlighters, makeup, collection, beauty, revolution, newlook, pure colour, collection, summer, glow, shimmer, I also have The One Highlighter Stick by Revolution which is so so pretty. Although I tend to use powder highlighters more often then stick versions, I do have two favourites in my stash and this is one of them. I find this gorgeous stick is super creamy and doesn't budge my foundation which I find in some sticks, it gives a gorgeous effect to the skin and it reminds me of Nars Copacabana highlighter. 

Lastly I have two Newlook Pure Colour highlighters which I love love love. The first is the Baked Highlighter Powder in 93 Gold which I use as a bronzer/highlighter as it is the prefect shade to give a bit of colour to your cheeks as well as some sparkle. The pigmentation of the highlighter is insane and I use this product all the time and still haven't hit pan (I don't actually think I have hit pan on any of my highlighters which makes me happy). 

My final product is the Pure Colour highlighter Stick in 93 Gold. Like the Revolution stick, the Newlook stick doesn't budge any of my foundation when I apply it and it is so smooth and creamy when you apply it and again, leaves a beautiful shimmer to the skin. Since this stick is a little bit smaller then the Revolution stick it is perfect to add highlighter to your nose and brow arch, which might be too small for the bigger sticks to fit in.

Following on from my Shopping my Stash | Blusher post I thought I'd do a post about my forgotten highlighters too and don't they make a pretty photo. Highlighters are such pretty products and come in the prettiest packaging but like blushers, I always seem to stop once I've done my bronzer/contour. Call me a lazy beauty blogger!

The first of my forgotten highlighters is Benefits High Beam which I have used about once since I got it. I know a lot of people love this highlighter and it is meant to be great in the summer but I have never got on with the texture of the product. I have always been a powder highlighter kind of girl and this product I feel can rub off my foundation when I apply it. It is probably me not applying it properly so I am going to give it a second chance this summer. 

A cream Highlighter that I do love using but always forget about is the Topshop Glow pot. This highlighter is a gorgeous golden cream shade that glows beautifully on the skin and thankfully doesn't rub off any makeup already on the face. This past week I have already started showing this product some more love and plan on continuing doing that this summer. 

Lastly my cutest highlighter in my stash is the I heart Makeup Goddess of Love Tripled Baked Highlighter. It screams Too Faced with its packaging but it is a fraction of the price! I always forget about this highlighter which is hidden at the bottom of my stash but I don't know why because it is so gorgeous. It definitely needs to be shown some more love this summer!
