Hi everyone,
Recently I discovered the Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kits being used by some of the more well-known bloggers and YouTubers.
I instantly fell in love with the to-die-for highlight that they give, and found myself wanting to get my hands on them.
So, I had a look on Cult Beauty, and found both highlighter palettes.
Yes, they’re pricey at £39.99 each, but as with most luxury/high-end cosmetic brands, that’s to be expected.
However, I don’t regret it one little bit;
(R = Gleam, L= That Glow)
Let me start off by saying that the packaging is gorgeous; it’s simplistic and stylish, of course.
The highlighters themselves are a lot bigger than I expected…
I was expecting them to be quite average-sized, but they’re pretty big, so you won’t run out in a hurry after paying all that money!
Gleam contains four pinkish shades, which is ideal for lighter skin (Hard Candy, Mimosa, Starburst & Crushed Pearl).
That Glow contains four darker, bronze shades and one yellow, which is ideal for darker skin, or even just to use as a bronzer, or if you have a bit more of a tan; (Sunburst, Golden Bronze, Bubbly & Dripping in Gold).
They’re highly pigmented and give off a really radiant glow.
I’ve swatched them on my fingers in the images below, so you can see how they look:
These swatches are from That Gleam. (L-R: Hard Candy, Mimosa, Starburst, Crushed Pearl)
And these are from That Glow (L-R: Sunburst, Golden Bronze, Bubbly, Dripping In Gold).
You can see how pigmented they are, and how much of a radiant sheen they give off.
I now swear by these, and love using them! I’ve had loads of compliments on how ‘glowing’ I look, which makes me feel amazing!
They’re powder highlighters, not cream, so keep that in mind if you’re thinking of trying them.
But, they stay in place for hours and you don’t lose your glow!😉
Some people will say it’s best to apply them with a fan brush, but I personally applied them with an angled contour and highlighter brush.
Here’s a picture where I’m wearing two different highlighter shades, one from each palette; Sunburst from Gleam, and Bubbly from That Glow.
They’re such gorgeous highlighters, and I can’t fault them at all. Look how beautiful they are!
In America, you can find these gorgeous palettes at Ulta and Sephora. But if you’re in the UK like me, you can find them on Beauty Bay, or Cult Beauty like I did, right here.
Have any of you tried these highlighters yet?
Who else loves them?
Or if you don’t have them yet, do you see yourself getting them?
Thank you for reading,
