“Blossom Glow” is a beautiful pearly pink shade, and “Precious Petals” is a unique light bronzey shade. These swatch quite beautifully on the skin. Though I did only show the swatches with flash, these shades did not look much different in natural light.

“Blossom Glow” with Flash vs. Natural Light

I was surprised these highlighters showed up so well in natural light; they’re almost brighter in person! These were richly pigmented and applied very smoothly onto the skin. Since these are so illuminating, it is easy for them to show texture, so that is something to watch out for.

Overall Thoughts

I think these checked all the boxes for their claims. These are some beautiful, smooth, pearly highlighters.

These lasted quite a while on the face, still showing up by the end of the day, though not as dramatic. While I did apply quite a bit for this review, you can definitely tone these down and make them more subtle and soft; they’re beautiful either way.

Wet ‘N Wild did a great job with these highlighters; so far, I haven’t found anything at the drugstore that beats these. For the affordable price, it’s even better. If you’re looking for a dramatic highlighter, you’ve got to try these out. If you’re like me and wear a more subtle glow, these can achieve that, too!

Thanks for reading! Take care!

This is a great value highlighter. I usually find that cheaper highlighters are often more of a chunky glitter than a nice sheen, but this looks quite nice on the skin. When I bought it it was...

This is a pale pink highlighter. The formula is like a moist gelee. It’s a bit thick and creamy so it can build a lot on the skin. It’s quite icy and on me looks metallic because of how icy it...
