Beautiful!
As I've mentioned in a few other reviews, I haven't been the biggest Stila fan, but I greatly respect and admire the changes and improvements that Stila has been making. I love that Stila has made several shades of their new illuminator, so there's a perfect one for all people of different skin tones. These blend very well too. The best thing is that there are several different ways you could wear...read more this. You can mix a little with your foundation for an all-over glowing finish. You can wear this above or below your foundation on your cheekbones or where you want to highlight (as a make up artist, I recommend applying this BEFORE your foundation and then blending for a more natural and ethereal glowing finish). You can use this under powder blush for added shimmer. You can wear this on your brow bones too. I like that this doesn't dry my skin and it's also not overly shimmery. You can build up shimmer if you want more. I love the rose-gold because there aren't many illuminators like that shade, but it's perfect for adding very subtle color to your complexion.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 7 people said helpful

Lovely Highlighting Product
I have tried this in the light gold color, "kitten" and the "rose gold shimmer" color. Both are really nice, but the kitten color is better suited for my light skin. These are easy to apply and blend to give a nice shimmer highlighting effect. They have a brush applicator but should be blended with either your fingers or a separate makeup brush.

This is very similar to Benefit's High Beam. I like Stila's at least as much, plus it is nice that they have four different shades for various skin tones. Stila's liquid highlighters are $6 less than Benefit's High Beam and they even come with more product. I also like that the brush applicator is shorter on the Stila highlighter than Benefit's because it gives you more control as to where you place the product. This can also be blended with your foundation for an all-over glow which makes liquid highlighters like this more versatile than powder highlighters. I would definitely recommend Stila's Liquid Luminizer for those who like highlighting their face.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 6 people said helpful

works great makes me break out
I use this to highlight my cheekbones and nose bridge and this works great. However, I do notice that I tend to great more breakouts in those areas after using this.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 8 people said helpful
