I really love Illamasqua highlighters so thought I’d try an eyeshadow palette, but so far I’ve felt pretty disappoint. I find that it doesn’t pack the punch that I want in a colourful palette, and I feel that this just doesn’t unless it is really built up.
It’s fine, but I’ve got other colourful palettes that I would reach for a million times over! I’ve found that I absolutely ‘have to’ spray the brush if I want the colours to pop, and again I have other palettes that just don’t need me to do this.
Overall, it’s an okay palette but I would rather have the £10 back that I paid for it.

MAC Extra Dimension Skin Finish – Soft Frost
I bought the shade ‘Soft Frost’ and really enjoy the glow that it gives. Due to my pale skin it can be difficult to find highlighters that don’t leave a cast on my skin. Due to this I normally go for pretty subtly highlighters, which have a frosty finish. I love the way that this looks on me, and the amount of glow it gives
It also didn’t highlight my skin texture, which I really liked because it is something that I am extremely insecure about.
Overall I definitely recommend this as I feel that it will last forever, and I love the finish that it has.
Illamasqua Beyond Powder – Electric – 5/5
Bought this highlight on sale for £10, and I really enjoy it. It’s soft and applies smoothly, and doesn’t emphasize the texture on my skin.
It gives a lovely and natural highlight that isn’t too in your face, and I like the way that the pinky tone looks on me.
The packaging is also really cute, and the mirror is a very good size.
Overall I would recommend, especially if you can get it on a good deal.
