I was impressed with the price but didn't have high expectations because it's cheaper than most illuminators and highlighters. The shades are beautiful and super pigmented. It does the deed but I wouldn't recommend this palette to darker girls.
this is a great product! There are 3 shades. A pink shade for blush a brown shade for contour & a golden shade for highlight.
The blush & highlighter works good for me but the contour os too light as i am brown skin. But however i mix the contour & blush to give me a beautiful look on the checks.
The highlighter obviously gorgeous
The only down side is that its chalky!
Other wise i love this product. And defintely recommend it?
Available at Clicks, Dis-chem and selected pharmacies & retails for about R70/80+ .
What girl doesn’t love that luminous glow, I can’t help myself when it comes to highlighters and naturally this one really caught my eye. Thankfully Essence Cosmetics South Africa sent this over in their latest pr package and yes I have already dipped my face in this glowing palette.
The three shades are simply gorgeous the first is more of a matte highlighter which I had no idea was a thing. The second shade is a pinkish highlighter and the third a golden, brown highlighter. I have to say ever since I got this palette I have been making use of it! The shades are gorgeous and versatile you could definitely use the matte brown shade as a bronzer. These are so pigmented and they wear quite well, I have used Essence highlighters before and have loved them especially my now damaged Merry Berry highlighter which formed part of their Christmas collection last year and it’s still going strong besides the packaging which is my fault it fell out of my hands so many times but I refuse to part with it.
This palette is definitely worth picking up if you are looking for a great budget friendly palette retailing at R76. 95 you will be able to get your hands on these at Dischem, Clicks, Takealot and selected Pick ‘n Pay stores.
I was so dissapointed in this highlighter. I was looking for something inexpensive that did an excellent job, but with this product it was powdery and did not give me that glow I was looking for. I would not recommend it for dark skin girls. but overall its an affordable highlighter.
I have tried MANY drugstore and affordable highlighters, so don't think I'm being a snob, when I say that this does not do much at all. I've bought highlighters from other brands, and they've all worked much better.
This is just far too powdery and chalky for my liking, and doesn't give much glow at all.
Maybe it would be good for a newbie, who is scared of too much glow?
You'd be better off getting a Catrice highlighter or even one of their Pret-a-lumiere eyeshadows in a tone close to your skin tone.
This luminizer palette is really all that you need this summer. I use this luminizer on a everyday basis - that's just me, I love to glow. I use the darker shade to lightly contour my face and for night time I just add a bit of more product to enhance my features a more intense look.
Nowadays where highlight and that crazy shine underneath your eyes is the new "trend", and while you can not afford some pretty expensive brand for highlight, this product is just perfect. It can be used as your daily highlight or just add more to make it for a formal event.
I've never ever had an issue with Essence, I literally have all of their products, from concealer sticks, to liquid lipsticks to eyeliners.
I highly recommend using this product to most of my friends and family.
