very pretty, many uses!- 11.21.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer
Great product! It leaves a very pretty glow when you use it as a highlighter and also a great shadow. It is a very soft shimmer, not tacky glitter.
This is just what I was looking for as a cheek highlighter. I have now used it for browbone and all over highlighter. This is a very soft shimmer. I have a fair complexion and my daughter has an olive complexion and it looks good on both of us. I would definitely recommend. It's worth the price which isn't much compared to some other highlighters.

The One !!!- 11.18.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer
Its the perfect multi-tasker!! Anywhere you want some glow just brush it on. It is a soft shimmer and definitely has staying power. A little goes a very long way, I've had mine for a couple of months and there no 'dent'. The compact is super cute and has a large mirror.

Shine!- 11.17.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer
This has brilliant shine and makes your cheekbones look great! I dust some on my nose to make it look slimmer and on my cleavage area to make my skin look radiant. Really it works great and wherever you can think of putting it, it wont look greasy, but kind of like barbie, shiny and sparkly!

Worth The Wait- 11.16.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer, buildable coverage
Ok... So I wanted a highlightin' powder for my brow bone & cheeks. I came across this & I read the reviews & it seemed like everyone that has bought this product loves it. Well, when i went to Sephora to purchase a new compact of foundation they were all out of this. A wk later I went back & they had some so i was super excited. After gettin' home I freshend up to go out & decided to put it to the test... & I LOVE it!!! It's not glittery at all, has a soft shimmer to it, & you can build up how much shimmer you want.
Beautiful finish to warm up winter blah skin. Ideal for fair skin tones.

This is a very different kind of formula for my skin I like it because I don't use any foundation and you only need just a little dab here and there and off you go!!!!!!!!

Shimmery Powder- 11.01.09
Quick Take: sheer coverage
I love this stuff, but you must be careful to dust it on very lightly as it can cause one to look a bit pale.

A great highlighter. The color is neutral so it goes well with whatever color blush you wear. If you apply with your fingers, the shimmer is even more intense. I wear this every day and it makes me look more refreshed. I like to use this product on my eyelids too when I'm in a rush or just looking for a clean finish.

Best Multi-Purpose Highlighter I Have Ever Used!- 10.28.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage
I am so happy I purchased this product after finally deciding to buy this one. It is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! I have used as a highlighter on my brow bone and i also used it with my Too Faced Bronzer in Carribean on top of my cheekbones. I have received sooo many compliments on how my cheeks and face look! It really does what it aims for as a highlighter. I use apply it with my Sephora Fan Brush on cheeks, nose and brush on top of my lips to enhance that Cupid's Bow we all have. Considering in buying more TheBalm products!

A New Staple in My Makeup Bag!- 10.15.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage, great multitasker
Love, Love, LOVE this product! It's the perfect multi-tasker. I use it as my allover shadow if I'm in a real hurry to get out the door, but mostly use it on my cheeks and browbones. I've also used it at night all over in place of my regular powder - and it didn't settle into any lines or creases as some illuminating products have. Another great thing about this powder is the coloring. Because of my fair, oily skin, I've had some powders of this type turn my face either an orange-ish or pink-ish tint(depeding on the shade), but this powder has stayed true to it's color all day on me. It's also good on inner eye corners to brighten and I've also used an eyeliner brush to apply it under my lower lash line to help brighten up my eyes.
Overall - fantastic product, worth every penny!

Love It!!!- 10.10.09
Quick Take: soft shimmer
This is such a great highlighter. There is a lot of product and this stuff will last FOREVER! I usually just use my fingertips when applying it because it is VERY shimmery.

Great highlighter! It looks really gold on your fingertip, but goes on georgeous! Not "fake looking" at all-just glowing! A little goes a long way!

Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage, pigmented, good value
I was hesitant to buy this at first because my best friend had it already, and I hate being a copy cat lol :). But after borrowing hers a few times, I decided to get my own! It comes in a huge pan. I can't find a ruler to measure it properly, but I'd say it's about 2.5" in diameter. It's deffinately going to last me a while. As a highlighter, I absolutely love it :). I put in on my cheeks and brow bones, and it just lights up my face! This product is great as an eyeshadow too. Super pigmented and super shimmery. Highly recomended. :]

If the shoe fits...- 10.02.09
I waltzed into my local Sephora searching for a good, light shimmer powder. "Bronzer", technically, but since my skin is so fair, I needed something more like a silvery-gold.
This luminizer is awesome. I usually use it as an eyeshadow, but dab a bit on my cheeks if I go out. And, it goes with everything.
