 i won this in a benefit giveaway. i've never heard about this before, but its won an award from allure as best highlighter, so of course i couldn't complain.
i gave it a try yesterday, specifically using it to make my eyes look less "hollow". i had used a few other highlighters for this purpose, but it actually brought a lot more attention to the area, even when applied sparingly, and i was sort of expecting this to do the same thing, but it didn't!
because the hollows of my eyes are darker and sunken in (obviously), i thought this golden shade would look too much, but it actually just "lifted" the area and basically matched my skintone somehow and you couldn't even tell i had it on, except a little sheen since it IS a highlighter.
where i applied it, the lighting was too good and i didn't see it in natural light, but i did check in 2 different places that usually give me different results and it looked great.
i think this is definitely the best highlighter i've found so far for the hollow eyes purpose. i also love the fact it's in pencil form, which i've always been a little afraid of, because it gives me more control over the application. i dot it on and then blend/tap lighting with my finger and it's all done.
if i use this up, i'll definitely buy it! i'm glad i won it or else i would've never considered trying this.
