Thanks to the fabulous contributions to a thread I started on blusher (and a rather eventful day out today trying out and some epic fails) I wanted to ask you thoughts on highlighters.

I tried an Urban decay liquid one called 'sin' I really liked it but don't know what else is out there or what's good and what's not so good.

I cannot do anything pink or cool toned on my face- I learnt that much today.

I don't wear foundation or powder so I'm guessing I should go for a liquid highlighter?

If I could cover my whole self in the manizer one I would - I love it!

ProperLavs · 01/04/2018 20:50

peony I'm going to get some. I need help. With all this lot one I might dazzle on coming cars at night ;)

Which is better - the Mary Lou or Cindy Lou??

Or are they got different skin tones?

I'm another fan of soft and gentle and Mary-Lou Manizer. I have tried every highlighter out there!

PeonyTruffle · 01/04/2018 21:03

I have about 15 highlighters Blush you don’t need help til you hit this kind of obsession, you’re ok for now Grin
The Mary - Lou is my fave, you won’t regret it and you’ll be all glowy

ProperLavs · 01/04/2018 21:14

15? Wow! Do you use them all?
As far as I can see the candy- Lou is a pink shade?
Can I use soft and gentle and Mary Lou at the same time?

I rotate a lot and some I don’t like as much so they get shoved to the back of the drawer! I need some more heads really Smile

I use a tiny bit of the Mac soft and gentle with the Mary Lou on top. I don’t go mad with either so it’s not too OTT and I don’t look like a disco ball

Mac Soft and Gentle is my favourite

Blahblahblahyadayadayada · 02/04/2018 01:46

I really like the No7 Skin Illuminator . It’s a liquid one in a tube and I bought it after a friend gave me a sample that I loved using. It’s the skin illuminati. I use the nude shade but there is another shade.

I use shy beam for work/day time on my cheeks and high beam for evening/going out.

ProperLavs · 08/04/2018 13:36

Lots of my bits and bobs have been arriving!
Mac :soft and gentle is fabulous- love it.
Becca; moonstone , very nice, good colour for me, subtle but there .
Benefit; low beam. Have used this as an under eye concealer and it's the best thing I have ever used, quite incredible!
