The variants of golden-flecked rose shimmer in this four-shade palette are so veil-like, we've stopped thinking about it as a highlighter at all. Instead, we use the sparsely sparkled and lightly tinted powder to dust over eyeshadow, blush or on bare skin. The result: a luminescence that warms, brightens and looks more like healthy skin than pretty makeup.
When a brand known for its freckle-showcasing products makes a cheek tint, you know it's going to look natural. Still, we're impressed by the ease at which this gel-cream formula sinks into skin and emits a born-with-it flush. The liquid plant collagen inside may help deliver the skin-like texture, but whatever the case, thanks to buildable color and a compact, no-spill housing, it's quickly become our new go-to.
Forget what you know about contour: This petite tube of liquid color proves the defining bone structure isn't just about hard-chiseled looks inspired by drag. What's more, it makes subtle shading along the jawline, cheekbone, nose and hairline as easy as applying a liquid blush.
After popping a few dots of the formula onto skin with the abbreviated doe-foot applicator and tapping the shade in with fingers, we achieved believable definition... without even having to pick up a single makeup brush. What's more, the angle of the applicator and tube's tight neck helps to dispense just the right amount of product.
As a standalone lip treatment, this hydrator does a bang-up job. But thanks to liquid crystal technology inside, it also imparts a cool holographic effect on lips, sometimes reading as orange tints, others as pink tints, others as a golden yellow. It's an effect that makes the formula a perfect shade-shifting topper for lip color (and gentle nod to "Euphoria" makeup) — all while moisturizing your lips.
Anyone else missing their microblading appointments? Us, too. Well, at least until we got our hands on this new brow pen. A triple-pronged applicator lays down microfine, hair-like strokes of water-resistant pigment with remarkable detail and made filling in patchy spots extremely easy. By positioning the tip so it horizontally so it aligns with the shape of the brow, we're able to seamlessly darken the tail of the brows just as easily.
