Benefit Watt's Up Highlighter
Apart from my love for lipsticks, I am also highlighter-obsessed now. It's not that I would wear it everyday even if it's like 34 degrees outside. If that's the case, I'll pass and just let the sweat on my face reflect light. Haha!
I guess it's just so damn hard not to fall in love with the glow once you apply it on your cheekbones, tip of the nose, inner corners, EVERYWHERE! 😄
Anyway, if you need a "glow-up", here's another blinding highlighter I can recommend.
I was contemplating whether it's better to get this or Benefit's High Beam, but since I already got Becca's Shimmering Skin Perfector in liquid version, I went for a new formula and something newer as well.
As expected from Benefit, the product name is creative and packaging is amazing. It comes in a tube which also has a small sponge applicator at the other end. I rarely use it though because for me, it's better to blend using a finger or my favorite RT Setting Brush.
Since it's cream-based, you need not worry about breaking the product in case it falls. However, you still have to be a little careful because you might accidentally scrape it, just like what happened to mine recently. Good thing, it's a very tiny portion. #clumsyasalways
If you want a proof that the application is so damn smooth with this stick highlighter, go watch my Sephora highlighter haul video. I was also surprised the first time I used it. No tugging required. 🙌
Another great thing about Watt's Up or perhaps, stick highlighters in general, they do a more precise application compared to liquid ones.
I bet you'll love the formula of this! There's no tackiness, it's not patchy and not chalky. It also smells like powder.
It has a champagne color which would look perfect on any skin tone. I can see very tiny glitters when swatched but they don't show up on the face.
You can definitely opt for a soft glow or if you're in the mood for an intense gleam, just apply more. #becausewecantgetenoughoftheglow
When Kris took this photo, there's not much light in the place but look at that cheekbone! Still not convinced? How about an indoor shot?
See the pretty beam? 💛
Once my face gets oily, it still looks okay but since I need to pat on some powder at the middle of my day, blot my face or whatever, it tends to budge. I don't see that as a problem though because it's so easy to apply.

your sweetest drug,
