The effect is quite natural, allowing you to use the product for day and evening makeup, varying the degree of intensity of the coating. This highlighter will also be a good choice for photography.

«Cream Color Base- another favorite product. Creamy texture creates the effect of slightly moist skin, radiant from the inside. The product is easily layered, allows you to adjust the degree of gloss.
The tool is ideal for evening makeup and photo shoots. But for everyday makeup, many girls consider it too fat. A couple of hours after application, the glow effect begins to resemble a greasy luster.
To prevent the untidiness of makeup, many owners of combination and oily skin have to use powder in addition. Although at the same time the glow does not disappear completely, but becomes only slightly muffled.
«Extra Dimension Skinfinish“Customers are considered an option for evening exits. The coating is very noticeable, saturated, iridescent shiny particles.
For day makeup, this option is not suitable. But for the New Year holidays, parties and other special events this highlighter will be an excellent choice.
Favorite customer shade - "Show Gold". Despite the name (which means "show gold" in translation), the coating is pinkish with light golden tints.
«Strobe creamIdeal for dry and normal skin. It gives the skin a slight glow without noticeable sparkles, suitable for daytime makeup. Means is quickly absorbed, it is perfectly combined with tonal products, does not roll down during the day.
The product perfectly hides traces of fatigue, changes the complexion. However, girls who are used to the sheer glint of the highlighter will be disappointed. The tool only gives the skin a “sleek” look, slightly highlights it, but is not suitable for the correction of facial features.
«Pigment Color Powder“For many has become just an indispensable tool. It gives the face freshness and radiance, looks great in combination with matte eye shadow, and as an independent coating. The economic expense allows a product to please the hostesses not one year. Durability means perfect.
