The highlighter queen finally came out with a highlight! Anastasia Beverly Hills just collaborated with @amrezyto create this highlight. I know I’m super late on this review – sorry. I’ve been so busy with life!

Onto the Review…

Packaged in a beautiful black and rose gold container, this beauty retails for $28. I actually think the price is decent for the amount of product you get.

Amrezy is the queen of highlight so I was expecting something super blinding. However, on the package it states that this highlighter is meant to look like a glow from within. It can be used dry or wet.

Here’s what the color looks like swatched:

DRY APPLICATION

When used dry it definitely does make you look like you are glowing from within. It kind of blends into my skin tone and doesn’t stand out as much as other highlighters like the Huda Beauty 3D Highlight. I think that’s kind of the look she was going for though.You can build it up to add more color but I feel like I have to really add a lot of product on for it to be blinding.

Not gonna lie, I was a little bummed that it wasn’t blinding but I get the concept. I would wear this dry on a day to day basis to make my skin look glowy.

WET APPLICATION

When used wet, the highlighter stands out 50x more and looks so much more blinding and beautiful. I love that look for pictures cause I just love when highlighter stands out a lot. It looks really nice on my skin tone when used wet. However, I still feel highlighters from other brands “pop” more on my skin tone.

See pic below for wet application swatched on my cheekbone:

EASE OF APPLICATION

The other thing that I noticed is that it’s easier to apply with fingers than with a brush. Because of the wave pattern its so densely packed in there that you have to swirl your brush in it pretty good to get a decent amount of product out. The wave pattern is so pretty that I get scared to mess it up with my brush!

Anywho, all in all its a nice versatile highlighter that can be toned down or up depending on whether its used wet or dry.

Have you guys tried this highlighter? Thoughts??
