i have to stop myself from using too much at once. so great for under the eyebrow, but i also love using it on my lips as a little bit of shimmer to a clear gloss.

High Beam - 11.18.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage

A great way to look young, vibrant and like you just stepped off the red carpet! A little dab on cheekbones, and around eyebrow areas makes you glow. Can't leave home without it

Brightening but liquidy - 11.17.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage, liquidy

I really don't like the liquid consistency. I much prefer a powder or a pencil to this product. The color itself is nice, but too sheer for my taste. In short, it's a bit watery and not as creamy as I'd like, and the color is more sheer, so I ended up layering, but the product doesn't layer well-- it congeals. So I will not buy this again.

Only Okay - 11.15.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage

It didn't give me that glow that everyone raves about. It put it below my eye like it advised to give me that bright-eyed, wide awake look. I never got any compliments. It also irritated my eye a bit when I put it in the corner of my eyes, like it also advised. I returned it. Wasn't worth the $.

highbeam = the best - 11.13.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer, higlighter, luminizer

I love Benefit, and this is by far my favorite product of theirs. I have used this every day for probably 4 years or more and it lasts FOREVER--I am only on my second bottle! It is the perfect highlighter. I have tried dandelion too, and it pales in comparison. Don't waste time with other products, this one is perfect. Please never stop making this!!

I use this everyday. Usually on my cheekbones for a dewy effect. Sometimes on my lids instead of shadow to brighten up, but still look natural.

A Good Highlighter - 11.11.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer, pretty, subtle, luminous

I use this product as a highlighter on top of my foundation. It gives nice, dewy appearance without being sparkly or glittery. I find this liquid easier to use than a powder highlighter, not to mention that it is also longer-lasting and more natural looking. I generally put this along the top of my cheekbone, blending up towards my temples, and underneath my brow bone. It tends to brighten up my complexion and give my make up a nice, polished appearance, without being too obvious. A little bit goes a long way; you only need to blend a few dots into your skin. This is definitely a more "concentrated" highlighter as opposed to some of these luminizing primer or foundation products.

BEAUTIFUL. - 11.10.09
I bought this recently for a Halloween costume. I was being a star and used High Beam to put a thick shimmer over my eyes and face. It worked very well and stayed on. Now I use it lightly the add a dewy shimmer to my cheek bones and eyes. Worth the money.

Quick Take: great for contouring and disguising fine lines, good at creating a smooth skin look, perfect for dewy youthful-looking skin

I absolutely love this product. At first, I only used it to highlight my cheeks and browbones but the other night after reading an article about makeup artist secrets, I decided to apply it in a strip down the middle of my nose and across my forehead as well.

It instantly slims the nose and gives the skin a much smoother appearance anywhere it is applied. I also put a tiny bit on my cupid's bow to accentuate my lips. I haven't tried it but have seen some girls who use it along the jawline to create a slimmer face shape.

Since I have neutral undertones and because I love High Beam so much, I am going to pick up Moon Beam next week to try as well. I would highly recommend this to anyone with pink undertones.

Loved the sample - 11.08.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer

so I had to buy the full size. Beware if your hands are slippery, I dropped the glass bottle the first time I used it and it broke into smithereens. Needless to say I bought another, now I'm much more careful. I'm ancient, so I use it under my brow bones to give a lift to my saggy upper lids. Works great!

I just this on my high on my cheekbones, browbones, and in the very inner corner of my eyes. It subltly brightens up my face. This in combination with your favorite bronzer will give you a beautiful glow.

LOVE! - 11.06.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage

High Beam is fabulous for highlighting cheekbones! My cheekbones are not super prominent so I love being able to bring them out with this. It's shimmery but not glittery and gives a nice subtle effect. It only takes a little dab, so the bottle will last a long time!

Very High Beam - 11.03.09
Quick Take: a lot of shimmer

If you like the shinny look this is for you. It does give you a lot of glitter for the price. This is definetly not be worn at work.
