Vanish Flash Highlighting Stick

Apply it under foundation, apply it over foundation and - oh, so forbidden - apply it over powder: it works nicely. Depending on when and how you put it on it can be subtle to noticeable but I wouldn't call it a "blinding" highlight (throw some powder highlight on top of it and you have that look if you want).

I've got Gold and Champagne Flash; on my light winter complexion, Champagne is easier to work with (where I feel like with the Gold Flash I need to choose the rest of the make up like eyeshadows, blush etc. more carefully so it doesn't look odd to me - or wait for a tan ;) ). The sticks are very, very soft (do not push out too much of the stick and risk breaking it) and I personally love the shape of it (triangle like the foundation sticks).

My only "complaint" would be that I didn't expect it to be "glitter-ly" at all. I don't know why I thought I wouldn't see any glitter but that was the image I had in mind. Now, don't get me wrong, it's not a glitter stick but people in normal speaking distance can see some glitter. Not the end of the world but not what I had in mind. (The cream highlight by Kevyn Aucoin in Candlelight [The Contour Book The Art of Sculpting + Defining Volume II] "doesn't glitter on me" as a reference or recommendation if you're looking for cream - not a stick - highlighter with a subtle, not "glitter-ly"effect that I personally can apply over foundation and powder but doesn't really show when applied under foundation.)

4 stars for the quality, the flattering shades, the simplicity of applying it and the overall lovely effect it has on my skin.

I love how this highlight turned out. The formula is soft and creamy without being greasy. The color I have is just the right amount for my olive skin tone. When applying I decided to put it under the foundation on my forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin to give an all over sort of shine. After the foundation I put on the rest of the contour and highlight then added this to my cheeks, chin, and nose for the really bright highlight. It works so wonderful. I love it and would recommend it to anyone wanting to find the perfect cream stick highlight. I did receive mine for free in return for my honest opinion I was not paid in anyway for my opinion.

I was very surprised with this one-not nearly as pigmented as the reveal ads and not very long lasting. A pretty color but I really had to work it in so see it at all. I was going to buy them all but think I will pass now.

I bought this on a whim because i love hourglass products and let me say its stunning! I applied it over my foundation and before powder with a beauty blender and it left a beautiful glossy glow. I applied a little powder highlight over it and it lasted all day.

I have Rose flash and Champange flash and I can't stop reaching for these. Cream highlights are always going to look more natural than a powder highlight and melt into the skin in a way powder can't do. I highly recommend cream highlights for anyone with textured skin, anyone who wants a natural glow, and also perfect for mature skin! These are definitely worthy of going in my pro kit but I can't part with them! LOL

This product is creamy, pigment and easy to blend. I haven’t worn it for a little by period, but I’m m sure it will last.

Absolutely love all of these highlighters, they melt in the skin seamlessly!!!!!! Would highly recommend!!

a more subtle, not the kind of highlight you can see from outer space, which is good for my taste.

Have to mention the excellent customer service - the replacement came in so fast after I emailed them about a faulty product; truly appreciate that.

The triangle design is convenient for your face, it is easy to be colored, it is suitable for daily make-up appearance, it is very suitable for myself, I like this brand of cosmetics very much.

It’s beautiful!!My friends like this ,too. Not too shine. I use it after powder It’s a good high light!
