I love the lightweight creamy freel of this stick highlighter. It's perfect for a natural glow on it's own, but recently I found myself layering powder highlight over it, and WOW. The powder sticks to it like it's an illuminating primer. Double the shine! :) The product itself lasts a long time and isn't greasy, which is wonderful. It also doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. All around, a great product I would recommend to friends. -

Recently, the brand called Essence has released 3 new eyeshadow palettes - Spice Up Your Life, I'm With The Band, and Fairy Wings & Magical Things. Each palette contains 16 pans of shadow, and the formula for these are certainly lovely. The colour payoff is phenomenal for the price (I got mine at Shopper's for just $12cad each) and each palette offers something different. With these palettes you get a mix of matte and shimmer shades with some lovely glitter as well. My current favourite is the Spice Up Your Life palette. The shades are perfect for fall, warm with a stunning matte red and lots of peach, gold and rose gold shades. You get quite a few matte browns in different warmth and coolness.
The colours "Cyan my man", "Curry in a hurry", and "Habanero honey" are my favourites.
A tip: Some of the matte colours (very few) might be a bit powdery when applied with a brush. A quick mist for wet application really makes it "pop". For the glitter shades, I find the best pigmentation comes from packing that stuff on with your finger. The result is a gorgeous, practically foiled effect.

I bought this product for the first time at a Rexall pharmacy when I was 19.. It was my first high-end drugstore product. I was instantly amazed at how creamy it was, and it soon became my everyday highlighter. I have since bought a second one and am still using that, even though it has been broken, repressed, and broken again. Even as a busted power the glow it gives off is astronomical, and the colour and formula are gorgeous. I know that when I hit pan I will certainly be buying again! -
