Amazing Overall Product
So the highlighter is amazing when you first buy it. It has the perfect amount of shimmer for an everyday or even a dramatic makeup look. I've also noticed that I don't even need a powder highlighter on top to set it, unless I want to be really glowy ;) The problem is, after a while of using this product, it turns into white liquid drops that don't do anything on the skin. You have to squeeze a bunch of the white liquid out to finally get to the product. That is very frustrating but remember, it doesn't happen until you've had it for a while and this only costs $1! I think it's an amazing product overall, it just gets a little annoying when it turns into the drops. But again, it's ONE DOLLAR!
Natural sheen
I love, love, love this stuff for the price! It goes on really natural and gives you a born this way glow if applied correctly. The color is pinkish, and dries clear.. i put some of this stuff all over my face after i come out of the shower and my boyfriend always comments on how radiant i look :D plus, it smells delicious and lasts a long time! For a dollar? Definitely worth trying!
Wasn't sure about it at first
I normally stick to highlighting powders and powder products in general because I normal to dry skin and I am just more comfortable with powder products. But I gave this a go and I really like it! It is easy to apply, has great color and is build able, although you really don't need very much at all. I find it does go on better over the foundation before you powder, but still works great over powder. I find it is easy to apply with your fingers (before powdering) and a small fluffy brush (after powdering) it keeps its shine and shimmer for quite awhile and doesn't wear off easily. As with all e.l.f. products I have used thus far, excellent quality for the low price.
Use this everyday!
I think this product is amazing for the amount of money it costs, I picked mine up at Target. Before applying I shake the bottle and even though it is liquidy I just spot a few dabs on my cheekbones and blend it out with my fingers. I think it gives an awesome shimmery finish and I have repurchased this time and time again.
Pretty Good!
I love this highlight! I normally don't highlight my cheeks using anything but bronzer, however I changed when I bought thi! I absolutely love the fact that you don't have to use a whole lot of product in order to get a nice highlight. The price tag of $1 isn't bad either! I even tried mixing this with my tinted mositurizer and foundation...and it toatlly worked! I had such a beautiful glow! I used this especially for Homecoming this past September too; it looked so freakin' pretty in pictures! The pigmentation is pretty good, though it does/can turn out sheer. I don't wear this as a highlight every day because it doesn't look that natural on my skin tone, however when I want more of a shimmery highlight, I use this! I honestly and truly recommend this to anyone looking for a nice, pearly, shimmery highlight! Go get it!!!
PROS:
- Price - Pigment - Long-lasting - Shimmery color
CONS
- Availabilty - Not natural for darker skin tones like mine

You only need a little!
I only take one drop on my finger, use my other finger to even the drop and sweep both fingers to highlight my cheekbones. Then I blend as much as I can and it's perfect. I wish I could find more shades instead of Lilac Petal and Spotlight because I think a different shade would be even better.
Okay
It's a nice highlighter that I use and it only cost $1 but there are a few problems. First it doesn't blend it that easily so I have to apply it on my hand, blend, then apply to my face which is okay but a huge problem that I really have is that sometimes it can really turn into liquid drops and that's so frustrating. I left mines on my makeup vanity the day i bought it and a day later it was liquid then turned into the regular product. Now I don't use this anymore on the my face as a highlighter I mix it in with my body moisturizer to give me a bright glow on my skin which I like better.
Love these!
I have two which I use them in my videos sometimes www.youtube.com/user/TheOfficialLMC and I really like them. Deff worth the dollar! I honestly think they really do add a little shimmer to your cheek bone. I also like to apply it above my brow - but only a little bit so it doesnt look too oily. Just the right touch for a nice natural look :)
Pretty color, but hard to work with
When I got this product I was actually kind of looking forward to it because the color was so different from any other highlight I own. Sadly, the product was just unusable. I tried with my fingers, with a brush, and with a sponge and I never could get this product to blend properly. Not something I would recommend
