 Lumi Le Glass and Glow Highlighter Stick

I was very excited about this product bht unfortunately am disappointed. The promo photos make it seem like a "wet" looking highlighter, which is what I wanted. In real life, it is a "sparkly" highlighter. It looks pretty, but not what I was looking for. It is easy to apply, (just rub the stick on your face or pick it up with a brush) but has a very tacky texture that removes product underneath it. It also is difficult to blend. Without blending, there is a clear line of application. With blending, I found that the product sheers out more than I would like, and because it is sparkly with fine glitters in it, it creates a pretty but unnatural look, almost like fallout from eyeshadow. It also never seems to dry down fully, so my hair gets stuck in it and it transfers easily. You can set it with powder to try to prevent it from transfering, but a small dusting doesn't prevent transfer and a heavy layer of powder creates a bad texture. Both ruin the highlighter effect. Maybe I need to experiment with other techniques, but so far I'm disappointed. Would work better for those who like sparkly highlighters and don't mind the tacky texture.

This stick highlighter does exactly what it says! Wherever you place it, you instantly have glass looking skin. It does take a few minutes to dry down, but it will.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This highlighter stick is the best! No joke! It goes on so easy. As easy as chapstick would be to apply this applies! Effortless. Goes on smooth and has an amazing amount of shine in every stroke. It's not too over the top but just subtle enough you know it's there. It seems slightly waterproof as well. So if you shine yourself up for the beach, lake or pool and you get wet it's still there! There is zero scent to it and blended seamlessly. Love love love this!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This was an okay highlighter. I love that it doesn't look glittery at all, and it just makes your cheeks look wet and glowy, but it doesn't dry down. It feels kind of like Vaseline on the skin. I do like it, I just wish it didn't feel so tacky on the skin. I do love it for the brow bone and nose.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I got was my EXACT skin tone, I wish I could've gotten something lighter since it is a highlighter but even though it's my exact skin tone, it still shined really well! It also was super easy to put on and wipe off!
