I know, I know you're probably sick of the highlighter questions! But, I'm having such a difficult time deciding what to try because I don't have either of these brands to swatch because my Sephora does not sell them. So I've narrowed it down between Becca and Hourglass! I think I'm leaning towards Becca but I have no idea!
1) So first question, what is the difference between Becca's highlighters; Poured, Liquid, Pressed? Do they differ in longitivtiy or is it just preference?
2) Which formula/product do you like best? Powder, Poured, Liquid, Jaclyn Hill Limited Edition?
3) What color would be best for very fair skin?
4) Hourglass vs Becca? If you've tried both brands obviously...
5) Glitter or glowy? Do either of these give the throwback to '08 Twilight glitter look πππ or is it a healthy glow look?!
6) Any other highlighters you like more?
Thanks in advance! Its so hard to decide from just reviews & picture swatches and not in store! Also, I've already tried L'Oreal, Elf, Revlon, Wet N Wild, Physicians Formula, Nars, Benefit, Bare Minerals, Stila, Sephora's Brand, Too Faced, Urban Decay (what I'm currently using), and I'm probably forgetting something... Like I said I'm looking more for glow not glitter! π

1) I have not tried them all to comment on longevity, but in terms of Poured vs Pressed is that the pressed is powder in a compact and the poured is more of a creme compact. Liquid comes in a pump bottle. I have dry skin and the powder works fine with me.
2) I prefer powder.
3)Pearl for BECCA
4) I actually prefer BECCA, I wasn't too happy with the way hourglass looked on my skin. I find Hourglass more suitable for oily skin types.
5) They are glowy.
6) Kevyn Aucoin, of course!

@Kitty, I haven't even thought about Kevyn Aucoin's, I'm sure its amazing too!
@Jacqueline, I was unaware that they were more just finishing powders, so thats good to know. But I definitely lean towards more glow vs something softer.
I swear I never have money because I'm always just wanting to buy makeup/skincare products π Lol, I'm sure you all have the same feeing!
