I bought this
after reading a blog post about highlighters. I love wearing a highlighter on
the top of my cheek bones as I think it looks so pretty. However I have a very
small collection of highlighters and I am always on the hunt for new ones. At
the drugstore there are not a lot of highlighters although there are plenty of
blushes available that can be used as highlighters. When I saw that ELF had a
Baked Blush that would act as a highlighter I knew I had to buy. I really like
ELF as they sell some amazing products at really affordable prices and I have
tried another one of their Baked Blushes in Peachy
Cheeky and I really liked it.
The Baked
Blushes cost £3.95 each and you can get them from the ELF
website. They come in 4 different shades: Peachy Cheeky, Pinktastic,
Passion Pink and Rich Rose. The packaging is very simple it comes in a black
pot with a clear lid, although the packaging is simple it feels sturdy. I like
that you can see the colour of the product and that the packaging is quite
compact so it doesn’t take up too much space in a makeup bag.
What ELF says ‘The soft and shimmering colour of our Baked Blush creates a natural healthy glow. Baked in an oven, these blushes offer rich pigmentation for a beautiful effect. The long-lasting formula provides a gorgeous, smooth and even application.’ (Taken from the ELF website)
I apply this with my Real Techniques
Setting Brush which I got in the Sam’s
Picks Set. I apply this to the top of my cheek bones and it gives a really
pretty sheen to my cheeks. This highlighter is a gorgeous champagne colour with
pink veins running through it. This blush is really pigmented and gives a
really natural glow to the cheek bones. The texture is really smooth and it
applies evenly. I find it to be pretty long lasting it lasts around 6-7 hours
before it starts to fade and you need to think about reapplying it.
Overall I am really impressed with this
highlighter, it is one of my favourite ones I own. I might do a post on my
favourite ones or a collection post as I don’t have too many highlighters and I
think that they can be quite difficult to find at the drugstore.
Have you tried this highlighter?
