Best HL!
-06.09.13
This is a wonderful highlighter, gives you the best natural glow without too much shimmer! I have sensitive skin and break out easily but this is perfect and non-irritating, easily in my top 5 make up must haves! I recently went to sephora and found out they no longer carry Lorac in stores, it's now online/jcp only, which is a bummer, but still a great product I'd repurchase again & again!

Luminous & Radiant Indeed!
-05.24.13
Quick Take: soft shimmer, radiant, glitter free
I received a small sample of this in "Luminous" and I'm obsessed. It has no real glitter or sparkly chunks in it, but somehow it makes my skin look gorgeous and lit from within. It's oil-free, yet the texture is smooth & silky. Its so versatile! Sometimes I use it after applying all other makeup for a natural glow, sometimes I use it as a highlighter: cheekbones, above the brow, down the nose, etc. If I'm not wanting to wear full makeup, I can apply this--very lightly--all over my face after tinted moisturizer and It gives my face color & a healthy glow and a bit of color.( BTW: I was recently at a baby shower, doing a side by side picture with the Mommy-To-Be, we BOTH had a fantastic glow about us!) I immediately went to Sephora to buy the fullsize of "Luminous"... then I discovered the other shades... I fell in love with "Radiant" which is a tan version of this powder. WARNING: Spotlight claims to be a warm beige color--all I seen when I applied it was ORANGE! Don't buy that shade without testing first!!! Again, this darker shade is also incredibly versatile! Sometimes I use this all over as a pop of color, sometimes I use it as a bronzer; across the forehead, sides of the nose, chin, under the jaw, etc.. These are both staples in my makeup collection, I carry no other powder with me but one or both of these. I highly recommend them for young & older skin. I was looking for the perfect powder when I received the sample and I've compared the size of it (.34oz for $32) to other luminizing powders at Sephora, this is the best deal!!! Win-Win!

I LOVE THIS POWDER (radiant shade)
-05.01.13
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage
I use this powder in conjunction with the Smashbox CC cream (dark spot treatment). Somehow, with the use of this powder, my face looks nearly flawless. Light reflection, healthy glow distraction...I really am not sure how it happens technically; but simply put, I do not leave home without using it. My eyes (my worst critics) are truly tricked into not seeing spots. It's a healthy glow, not a sparkle or shimmer. It's THE BEST luminizer I've found. First: Smashbox CC cream, second: this luminizer, third: Nars Multiple on my cheeks, and then I'm out the door looking natural and healthy. LOVE.

I know everyone seems to love this as a highlighter, but it was just "ok" for me. I wasn't over impressed with this product and i used it at least 6 times as a highlighter. I just didn't think it was worth the money & i returned it.

Healthy glow hides flaws
-04.09.13
I don't have a great complexion, scars, acne, visible pores, I work nights too, so I don't get enough sunlight. This makes me look bright and healthy, I don't even wear foundation anymore. It does not make me break out and it is lightweight. I only gave it four stars because it does tend to wear off through out the day, but not excessively.

Best Luminizer ever!
-04.04.13
Quick Take: soft shimmer, photograh-friendly
I got this in the Christmas cheek collection. I like to use this under eyes and it makes my eyes appear much brighter without any noticeable shimmers. But even though I like this so much, I wouldn't repurchase cuz $42 for a highlighter is ridiculous.

Luminous without too much shimmer or shine
-04.04.13
Quick Take: soft shimmer, luminous
I bought this on "sale" and am thrilled. I am almost afraid to use it in case I use it up! But this is the only product I have ever found (and I've tried lots) that give a luminosity to the skin without making it look shiny - and as I have oily skin that shines on its own I don't want something that does! It is and should be barely perceptible except to make you look luminous and glowy - like yourself only better. I have the lightest shade and it is perfect for my NC20-25 fair but slightly olivey skin.

Amazing!
-02.10.13
I got this product in the shade Luminous in the In The Glow set Sephora released around Christmas. I absolutely love it! It gives a beautiful glow. For the winter formal at my school, many of my friends with different skin tones used this product and loved it just as much as I do! I will definately repurchase this.

Nothing compares!

I am a perfectionist with sensitive skin and this powder never lets me down. Since finding this I have received so many compliments on my "great complexion." It's worth the money and I will never go without it.

An ok item
-01.27.13
Quick Take: soft shimmer
I ended up returning this item even though it provided an incredible sheen. First of all, it defined my barely there fine lines. Second of all, i started to get some red bumps where i used the product. Third of all, mica is the first ingredient with is harmful if inhaled. I wouldn't use it on my entire face as it is too shimmery.

face brightener
-01.26.13
Quick Take: long-lasting, worth the price, a quality product
I love Lorac products. All the powders are easy to blend and apply. I bought this to apply with a bronzer brush, over already-applied makeup. It works well that way, as well as over moisturizer for an un-madeup look. Don't overdo. I shake off the brush before doing only one swipe over forehead, cheek and nose areas. The brightening is understated - no sparkles as in some of the competitive products from other companies.

Not for light/fair skin
-01.21.13
Been looking for a good highlighter... this wasn't it. Not noticeable at all on my fair skin. Was really excited about this as I read so many good reviews about this. Given the steep price tag, I had to return.

I have been using this product since I got a sample of it over a year ago. I dust it over my face after applying foundation and powder, and it makes my skin look amazing! So many people ask me what I use...this product makes my skin look luminous!!

I got the "In The Glow" Set for Christmas and this is by far my favorite product in it. It gives the perfect amount of glow, and not too shimmery. I will definitely be buying this in full size when I run out.

Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage
I am such a makeup junkie. I own several luminizer's and this product tops my list. I apply it as a highlighter on my cheek bones, bridge of my nose, cupids bow, inner eyes. It is so beautiful! It give a subtle glow that seems to come from within. It brushes on flawlessly, it doesn't cake on or look powdery, just a light sheer coverage with a soft shimmer. I love it!
