No one can’t say that Hard Candy Look Pro! Illuminate and Strobing Mix-In Drops aren’t cutely packaged. This liquid highlighter comes in a tiny glass vial with a push to release dropper that allows you for easy, mess-free application and mixing.
The highlighter is available in a single white iridescent shade which has a slight pink reflection in sunlight. It actually contains absolutely no chunky glitter and shimmer but merely relies on the iridescent finish to capture light and bring it to your complexion. Sadly, the product is very sheer so you might not get the complete “strobing” look you desire with this but more of a sheerer, natural glow which is fine by me considering most highlighters are all about harsher, metallic or glittery glows. I actually liked this which is a rarity as I tend to avoid “glowy” products on my fuller face. This merely created a soft dewiness on my bare skin which I really thought looked pretty with a dab of cheek stain on top!
The formula is very thin and runny but blends easily enough. I prefer using it on my bare skin over my favorite primer (Revlon Photoready Perfecting Primer) with a little cheek stain on top. As I mentioned above this create a pretty dewiness but with a very, very subtle radiance. I tried mixing it with foundation but I honestly think the color gets drowned out when mixed with anything. Using it alone produced the best results.
I think if you’re scared of highlighters or you simply don’t like to look overly glowy or radiant these new Hard Candy Look Pro! Illuminate and Strobing Mix-In Drops might be appealing. I liked them since I really don’t apply highlighter very well nor do I even like using it very much. This product provides a subtle glow with a pretty dewiness that looks natural but never harsh!
Hard Candy Look Pro! Illuminate and Strobing Mix-In Drops are available now at Walmart and Walmart.com.
