Benefit Watts Up! Highlighter Review + Swatches !
Thursday, April 25, 2013
Today I am reviewing the Benefit Watts Up Highlighter that I reciveved in my birthday duo gift from Sephora. I used it a few times this week, and I have a pretty good catch on what it does for me.
Benefit describes the color of this highlighter; a solid stick with a cream-to-powder finish, as a luminous, sheer champagne. When applied onto the face it almost seems like it'll be too much, but once it is blended out it results in a gorgeous, glowy sheen. On me it shows up as a frosty champagne color.

When applied on top of foundation, it blends in smoothly without looking heavy and lasts a great 8 hours on my face. The consistency is really creamy without being greasy, and stays put to where you blend it out.

The full size of this highlighter is double-sided, with the product coming from one end, and a sponge on the other. I don't really think that I would be too fond of the sponge because I would be wary of washing it without damaging the rest of the product. I like to blend it out with my fingers because it gives me a really nice airbrushed glow.

Overall I would purchase the full size of this product because I really love the champagne glow it gives me. I like that it doesn't look greasy on my dark skin and stays on a good 8 hours.
Do you like champagne colored highlighters?
