It's a Benefit product, so of course its design is out of the box. The light bulb pun on the packaging brings a smile to my face...and believe it or not that's also how Benefit wins my heart, mind and wallet every time.
Since I'm a newbie to the makeup world (I know, crazy right?!) I wasn't sure how this highlighter would work on my skin tone, but let me tell you it works wonderfully. I'm absolutely head over heels in love with it.
Watt's up is a cream-to-powder highlighter which comes with a round little spongy blender to smooth out/blend the highlighter into a diffused sheen. Although I have experienced that this sponge tends to rub the product off rather than blending it. Just use your fingertips and you will be fine! it gives a better effect.
*finger tips* Best makeup tool ever!
The powdery creamy texture glides on easily on the skin and doesn't mess with the foundation/base if already applied. I love the way it creates a gorgeous noticeable glow on my medium skin tone. It's a champagne shimmer that's supposed to flatter a wide range of complexions. Plus, its not too reflective or shimmery, which is great as i don't want people squinting their eyes when they look at me.
I think the high price tag on this is pretty justified for the results it produces. It will definitely be a staple in my makeup collection.
I haven't yet tried this on bare skin. Have you? Let me know your thoughts.
Here's how and where i apply it to achieve a beautiful glow:
1. On my temples
2. Just above the cheekbone
3. Inner corner of the eyes
4. Just a dab in the middle of the chin
Also, try applying Watt's Up under your foundation...gives a more subtle natural glow.
Have fun with it :)
