Makeup Revolution Vivid Baked Highlighter 'Golden Lights' Review

Hello! ♥

I'm pretty sure everyone and their nan has heard of Makeup Revolution by now, and how amazing their products are! I'm definitely a fan of a lot of the products I've tried and their highlighter 'Golden Lights' is no exception!

The pattern on the highlighter just looks so cute and makes you think it'll cost a lot more than £3!

The texture is really smooth and lightweight. It's easily picked up and blended in with a brush - I tend to use the Real Techniques Setting Brush or the ELF Fan Brush with a light hand, but it works fine with my fingers too. 

Although it looks very pale, when applied it appears as a beautiful golden colour! It is incredibly pigmented, so I only need to use a tiny bit to sweep across the tops of my cheekbones. I think it looks great as an inner-corner highlight for my eyes too! It can be built up for an intense highlight or used sparingly for more of a subtle, natural look. The colour compliments my skin tone so well and just adds a pretty glow! It doesn't look glittery at all, and only leaves a lovely sheen!

It seems to last very well on my skin, and I haven't really noticed any fading.

The only issue I have with this highlighter is the smell! It's the first thing I notice when I open it lol! It's not very strong but it's just not pleasant, I guess I'm just really picky. Despite the bad smell, I have continued to use it and it has become my favourite highlighter, beating my beloved Mary-Lou!

This gorgeous highlighter is available in three different shades, so there'll definitely be something to suit everyone!
