I got a sample size of this as part of a Benefit makeup kit I received for a birthday gift.
This product is really puzzling to me. Is it supposed to be some sort of liquid highlight or illuminator? It's far too pink and glittery to work on any skintone. Do you put it over blush to give it some shimmer? The formula is too greasy, and you'd never see the blush underneath. As an eyeshadow? It creases.
I'm not sure how one would use this in a flattering way. It's just bizarre.
Love, Love, Love Benefit. The Girls like pearls is giving you a glowing face wich finish Your everyday make up and make you look healthy.
This product is just completely amazing. It will add instant glow to your face, can be used to accentuate certain areas of your face to give it plumpness and will ensure you do not look tired if you add it under your eyes. It had a bit of light and therefore, can also be used as part of your contouring routine. Did I mention I love this???
This is marketed as "liquid pearl." It's effectively a liquid blush. It can be a bit tricky to use because of the applicator: you have to twist the bottom portion of the tube to extrude the liquid through an array of little holes, which is a pain, and it's just step one. You also have to apply the product kind of carefully. If you don't blend it well, you're left with a very obvious demarcation line. It also takes a while to set, and smearing during that time is possible.
Although this doesn't sound like a positive review so far, I really like this product. Girl Meets Pearl is a pretty, perky, and, indeed, pearly pink. And the stuff smells like raspberries, which is a bonus.
I do like this product, it does just what it says, adds a subtle brightness to your face. I still prefer the Benefit HighBeam, which is more dramatic.
I only like the applicator on the sample size, the full size product would be better if they change the way it is packaged.
I adore this product! It's absolutely amazing! It really makes my face look more structured and brighter! I love it! The only issue is the full sized packaging. It's kind of difficult to use, so I prefer the mini version better.
This is a great product. As with most benefit products, this highlight works well, and gives you a beautiful glow. I do, however recommend this more to people with darker skin tones as opposed to those who are very pale, or fair skinned. After I got a tan, the product showed up more, and looked better on the skin. However, if you don't mind it, this product is great for everyone looking for a nice highlight.
-edit- i forgot to mention that they COULD improve the packaging of this in my opinion. I don't really like the holes at the top of the dispenser.
a very big "meh" for this product. benefit's high beam illuminator probably works 100 times better thant the girl meets pearl.
price is also very high for the effects provided.
I've been looking for a highlighter for a really long time! I had 500 points at Sephora so I cashed them out and got a Benefits kit, which included a full Girl Meets Pearl bottle. I love this highlighter! It can be subtle or you can add extra product to create a more shimmery effect. I wear it everyday and love it!
I haven't use another highlighter so I have nothing to compare it to BUT I certainly love this product. I love Benefit and have never had an issue with any products!
