Editor's Summary
The Sephora Care Make It Glow highlighter in 03 Sunset Shine is a great addition to your makeup routine, but it's not as versatile as I thought it'd be. It looks amazing on the skin when applied over foundation or concealer, but it can be a bit too shiny on its own. It's a game-changer on the lips, but a total letdown on the eyes.
I'm all about that glow-up life, and the Sephora Care Make It Glow highlighter in 03 Sunset Shine is definitely a popular choice. But, is it worth the hype?
First off, the packaging is super cute and compact – perfect for tossing into your makeup bag. The formula is also pretty great, with a mix of gel and shimmer particles that give it a nice, even finish.
But, here's the thing: this highlighter is not as versatile as I thought it'd be. It looks amazing on the skin when applied over foundation or concealer, but it can be a bit too shiny on its own. And, if you're not careful, it can accentuate fine lines and wrinkles.
On the lips, it's a total letdown – it looks dry and accentuates the texture. But, when applied over a lip liner or lipstick, it's a game-changer. It adds a nice, subtle shine that makes your lips look plumper and more defined.
As for using it as a cream highlighter, it's just okay. It looks nice in the right lighting, but it can be a bit too obvious in certain situations. And, on the eyes, it's a total no-go – it collects in the creases and loses its shape.
So, what's the verdict? I'd say this highlighter is worth every penny, but only if you're looking for a specific use case. If you're looking for a multi-purpose highlighter, you might want to keep looking.
