Hey lovelies,
I've loved using my MAC Mineralize Skinfinishes for highlighting almost exclusively for a few years now. It's not that I didn't like other brands, I was just happy with what I had - surely one highlighter was much the same as another, right? (Revoke my makeup addict card, guys!)
Then Too Faced Candlelight Glow came into my life and blew me away. When I wear this highlighter, I have my own theme music. My own lighting technician in a compact. It. Is. Amazing.
Candlelight Glow is a fairly solid chunky plastic white and gold compact. The white part reflects golden shimmer, it's super pretty!
Inside you'll find a mirror and a duo of chandelier embossed shades. The chandelier is pretty worn away on mine now, but definitely still there.
Candlelight Glow is made up of an ivory with gold reflects (it reminds me of MAC Vanilla pigment) and a shell pink shimmer. They blend together to create a luminous pinky-champagne which is very pigmented and high shimmer, so if you aren't a fan of frosty or intense highlighters, Candlelight Glow may not be for you. I like to apply this with a Nars Yachiyo brush dupe to diffuse the glow, the two work very well together.
The wear time is nothing short of phenomenal - it easily lasts 11 hours without any sign of fading. This is definitely on the contendor list for my upcoming wedding!
- Great colour pay off
- Easy to blend out
- Incredible wear time - still going strong after 11 hours
- Your very own lighting technician in a compact!
- Nothing. We're getting married.
