Makeup Revolution Vivid Baked Highlighter- Golden Lights Review & Demo

October 24, 2016

Last month, I introduced Makeup Revolution on this blog. It’s a European brand that recently landed in London Drugs and Ulta. The brand specialize in affordable palettes with very pigmented and trendy colors and are often dupes of higher end brands! Today’s review will be for the Makeup Revolution Vivid Baked Highlighter. I’ve been reaching for this a lot recently and it is now a favorite of mine!

Basics

Name: Makeup Revolution Vivid Highlighter
Shade: 3 Shades- I have Golden Lights
Price: $9.99
Size: 8.9g
Available at London Drugs or Ulta

Packaging

On the outside, the packaging is not very impressive. It has a clear plastic top with a black plastic bottom. This is in line with the packaging of Makeup Revolution products. The size of this is bigger than your average blush. Once you open up the lid, the product is so beautiful! The product has a spiral embossing and also a 3D effect. It really reminds me of the MAC extra dimension skinfinishes.

Shade

In the pan, the product is quite white and has a hint of yellow undertone to it. However, once applied, the goldeness shows through more! The best part is when you blend it out. You really see the golden sheen come through and reflect in the light. It almost has a duochrome look to it where it is more white/yellow and then it turns golden when your skin hits the light! It’s so flattering and great for prolonging a summer tan!

Formula

The weird part is that we usually equate smooth and creamy as synonyms for great products. When I swatch this with my fingers, the powder honestly feels dry and chalky. However, when I apply it to my cheeks, it looks absolutely flawless. It stays on for at least 8 hours on my cheeks and continues to give that brilliant reflective duochrome look.

My hands have a lot of lines 🙁 It looks a lot smoother on my cheeks
 
This is my current favorite highlighter for days that I want a strong highlight. Also, since I’ve been more tanned, I find this golden glow even more flattering on my skin! For a casual day at the office, I can just use a lighter hand. But I love that it’s so pigmented and reflective so when I want to pile on the highlighter, this product makes it easy! Overall, I highly recommend this product for an affordable in your face glow!

Going to take advantage of the sun and photograph another foundation review!
.
I'm really excited to share some new releases from I'm really excited to share some new releases from Olay! I rarely talk about drugstore skincare as I probably buy into the whole marketing of $$$=quality 🤑
.
But these little guys for $30 are proven to renew skin just as good as $300 serums! These 3 different serums use some of my favorite ingredients to target different skin issues
Vitamin C - uneven pigmentation
Hyaluronic Acid - dry skin
Peptides - wrinkles
.
Will have to let you guys know how it goes! Do you use any products from olay? What other drugstore skincare do you like?

I got out to cypress last weekend for their lights to the lodge walk! The trails were decorated with pretty lights and you can treat yourself to some food and drinks when you get to the lodge! 🍹
.
That sip of a hot mulled wine after walking in the snow was the best!!
.
You have to buy tickets online in advance and its $36 which includes snow shoe rentals! If you have your own it's about $$8 less.
While I'm only wearing foundation maybe once a wee While I'm only wearing foundation maybe once a week these days, I've been really enjoying the It Cosmetics Your Skin but Better foundation! 😊
.
I'm working on a full review so I'll share swatches and a demo soon!
.
The formulation is very watery and spreads super easily across the skin. What I love is this flawless airbrush look I get using it!
Shade: 30 medium cool
