DRIPPING IN GOLD | MY THREE GO-TO CREAM HIGHLIGHTERS

Hello everyone! So a couple of weeks back now i shared my current three go-to powder highlighters, in part of an updated "my three go-to post" series. As i mentioned in that post (linked at the end) i am such a highlighter hoarder, but i definitely have my favourites from powder finish, to liquid and cream which i am loving the way they look on the skin this current spring/summer...


This is a product i have been loving since it was first released back in December, as part of a limited edition set from bareMinerals and i reach for it so often yet i have barely spoken about it. That being said even though this is a limited edition product, you can still pick it up and it currently has money off on the bareMinerals site, along with a free brush. This highlighter is so unique as it in the pan and when first applied is a cream formula, yet it dries down flawlessly into more of a silky powder finish and you are left with a beautiful natural golden looking glow. You can apply this product to where you normally would with the brush, but i prefer to go in with my damp beauty blender for that flawless/natural finish.

If you love cream highlighter or you just simply love a beaming/strong highlighted look, then you need to give this Topshop beauty a go because it is insane. Since i picked mine up the have upgraded the packaging to this beautiful gold hardware, so i might pick myself a back up next time i am in Topshop because i am probably 2/3 the way through mine. This product is super pigmented so you do only need a tiny amount, creamy/easy to apply and blend out, which will leave you with this beautiful gold/almost rose gold tinted glow. My favourite way to apply this is to dot a small amount where i want the highlighter to be with my finger and then blend out with my damp beauty blender, yet again but personally a beauty blender is your best friend when it comes to blending out cream or liquid products for the best flawless result.


Finally we have the bargain of the post and the biggest in size too, i have been reaching for this non stop for everyday makeup looks because of how natural/dewy this leaves your skin looking. This product is quite similar is formula to the bareMinerals product, as it is more of a gel/balm cream product which i am loving at the moment. My favourite way to apply this is shock horror with a damp beauty blender, but this time i just rub some product straight onto the sponge before applying/blending at the same time. As this is a face and body butter i like to apply some not just to the places i normal would apply it on the face, but it also looks nice if you apply a small amount to the shoulders, décolletté and collar bone areas which will leave you with a beautiful dewy golden bronze glow. That is not the best thing though, this product smells incredible and is perfect if you are like me and are obsessed with anything coconut scented.
