    I received this as a deluxe sample from the Sephora birthday gift in 2013. For the longest time, I put off trying it out because I had not used highlighters before and did not want to add one more thing to my beauty regime. My curiosity had gotten the best of me however.

    I tried it at the corners of my inner eyes (ala Victoria's Secret girls). I was surprised to see how awake I looked. Gradually I tried it as a liner for my lower lids and a brow highlighter to great results. A few months later, I watched a video put out by Benefit on other places to put it - on the cheekbones, on the top of the nose and above the bow of the lips. Wow! My face has definition!

    One thing to note - if this is not sealed or made to stay put somehow, it will disappear over the course of the day. My eyes generally stayed nice and bright, but anything on my nose and lips vanished quickly. Cheekbones mostly stayed highlighted.

    It has been 9 months since I have first started to use it, and it is still mostly full. I would imagine that it probably will last me two years at least. Expensive, but seems to last for a long time. If you are considering this, you should consider the sample / travel size rather than the full size.

    I love Benefit's Watt's Up Highlighter! I received this a sample of this product as part of Sephora's birthday gift. I love how it highlights my eyes...especially the inner corner of my eyes and under my eye brows! Worth the money especially because it gets rid of my dark circles and brightens my eyes!!

    This is my favourite makeup bag item! I wear this everyday wether I do full makeup or not because it gives my skin such a beautiful glow. I apply this under my brows and then along the very top of my cheekbones. This is truly a must-have product for doing "no makeup makeup".

    I love highlighters and this one is great!

    its got a bit of shimmer and sparkle unlike others I have tried. But the shimmer also makes it only for highlighting not for other uses (sometimes i use highlighters for under eye concealing, not this one though)

    It goes on smooth and does exactly what you want it to. I use it on my brow and cheek bones, inside the corners of my eyes and on my nose to contour. People say it lasts long, but for me i found i went through it pretty fast i dont even think i use it that much!

    I received this as part of Sephora's birthday gift for 2013 and I still haven't made it through the entire tube. I use this stuff daily to highlight the corners of my eyes and my brow bone. This plus some blush is what makes me look awake at 6am everyday! I will definitely splurge on this once I run out because it's become a staple in my makeup kit.

    It is a great highlighter that is very easy to use, and looks very natural. It is expensive but it is worth it because you don't need a lot of product.

    I got this as part of a Sephora gift. I use it as eyeshadow and it gives a nice lifting effect to the eye and is great for that barely there makeup effect.

    i seldom use highlighter, however... someone gave this product to me as a gift. i didn't use it as a highlighter, i used it as whatever i feel like (eyeshadow purpose, most of the time) and it feels great on the skin. it's not heavy on the face. :) great product.

    I love this! I don't usually wear highlighter because I'm too lazy and my skin is naturally oily but this gives you that perfect glow. I use it just at the top of my cheekbones for that little extra somethin'. This is a pricy product but I got a mini one for free (part of Sephora's Insider Bday gift) and I think that will last long enough. Love it!
