Benefit High Beam..my thoughts
Hello dolls! Hope everyone had a fabulous week! In my May favorites I mentioned Benefit's High Beam which has become my new HG liquid highlighter. Miss K asked to see how I use it, so I thought I'd do a review and let you guys know what I think about it, so this post is for you girl and anyone else who hasn't discovered this baby!
Sephora describes it:
What it is:
A luminescent complexion enhancer
What it does:
High Beam is an ethereal pink liquid highlighter that creates a radiantly dewy complexion. For an angelic sheen, this pink shimmering lotion adds a soft, natural afterglow.

It's very easy to apply, I first put on my foundation and blush, bronzer then I take my high beam and dab 3 small dots on each cheek, 1 dot down the center of my nose, cupids bow, and chin. I then take a Mac 188 brush and blend it in swirling motions until it's well blended out.
Voila! Perfect dewy glow
What I love most about this highlighter is that it's not glittery, and doesn't bring out your pores or make you look greasy (I have oily skin).
I got my High Beam when Sephora had the bundle for $35 which included the High Beam, Hoola bronzer, Gilded pencil and Bad Gal Mascara, awesome steal if you ask me! Otherwise High Beam alone sells for a whopping $24 for 0.45oz! It's still cheaper than Mac but a little on the expensive side for the amount you get, but hopefully it will last me a while.
Some people don't like the nail polish look it has but I don't mind it, I think it's different, and I like different. I will def continue to purchase this baby, hopefully Sephora will have another bundle deal soon;)
Who else loves High Beam?? Let me know how you apply it and if you love or hate it in the comments!
Have a great weekend loves!

Thank you so much doll! I so very much appreciate it! I didn't want to put out the $$ if it wasn't worth it, but I love how it looks on your cheeks! I'm going to wait until they have a bundle or I can get a discount on it, and then I will definitely be adding this to my make-up collection. Thanks again, have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteKim-Thanks I would recommend this to every girl out there, it's really great I'm sure you'd love it!
ReplyDeleteMiss K-Your very welcome!! It is well worth the $$ so I'm also hoping they'll have another bundle again soon! Let me know how it works out for you! Have a great weekend as well:)!!
