Loved it!

This was the first highlighter I ever purchased and had no idea what to do with it till I looked up a tutorial lol. Its a beautiful wee product! Its not too thick but not too thin either and was easy to apply just where I wanted with a brush or just my finger.

Australis Mineral Highlighter

I got this highlighter in pearl. I liked the sahde however when I applied the highlighter it felt very wet and watery on my skin. It also didn't blend over my foundation very well and actually took my foundation off underneath a bit so it wasn't satisfactory. It did leave a shines but the quality wasn't great I didn't think.

A nice addition to any Makeup Collection

This is a great product for anyone that isn't into that Instagram "ba-bam-in-your-face-super-blinding" highlight. It's really natural and subtle but super pretty! I purchased both shades - Pearl and Gold and I tend to use Gold a little more as it matches my yellow toned skin a lot better. I feel like Pearl is great for people with fairer skin with pink undertones and Gold for people with tanner skin and yellow undertones.

The product is quite hard to blend, I recommend using a little at a time and just using your finger or beauty blender. It sets really fast so you might need to blend it pretty fast as well. You get quite a lot of product so I think it is worth the money

This is a great dupe for Benefit's high beam and sun beam! Looks gorgeous as a nose, brow bone and cheekbone highlight. Really natural and makes your skin look like its glowing from the inside out.

Tips: Be aware! Only use like half a pump otherwise you'll be wasting a LOT of product!

The highlighter dries super fast so make sure you blend it fast as well.

Get that glow

There are a lot of mixed reviews on this highlighter, but I really love it. Firstly, there are two colour selections: pearl and gold. I have darker skin, with warm undertones and I love the way the gold looks. I can't say anything about the pearl because I haven't tried it. I have dry skin, so often powder highlights don't look amazing on me, but with this I find that it gives me a natural dewy glow or a strobey glow (does that make sense?).

Tips: Be very careful when pumping out the product. I use half a pump, and I VERY carefully squeeze it out. If not you'll end up wasting the product.

Gold

I wanted this product for almost a year yet I had no idea it came in two shades (slap on the wrist for the lack of research!). I purchased it from Life Pharmacy for less than $20.00 and was surprised that it was smaller than I expected. It comes in the signature black and pink colours for Australis in a light plastic bottle with a pump. From afar it's visually pleasing but on closer inspection there's not much to ohhh and ahhh about.

I assumed that I had purchased Pearl but was surprised to see a gorgeous golden bronze fluid dispensed from the pump. It has a slightly thinner consistency than Benefit's Sun Beam and is easy to blend into the skin. It smells like it just came off the production line but my nose doesn't stay wrinkled for long.

I feel you do waste a lot of product because you only need a very small amount to dab into the areas where you want it, but the pump doesn't really allow for that. When you pump out the product, the amount may look small but due to the intensity you will realise it's actually a lot. The pump is good but there's no control over dispensing less than what comes out (similar to MAC's Pro Long Wear concealer).

I prefer to wear this just on a plain face and I apply it to my cheekbones because I found that when I apply it over my makeup it has a tendency to lift or move my foundation even with light dabbing motions. I like that it doesn't dry too quickly because it makes it easier to blend and layer until I am happy with the colour pay off without caking it on.

In normal lighting when the product is blended I can possibly detect a slight sheen and a light wash of gold from certain angles. However what I can't stand are the white specks that are left behind on my face from the product. At this point the product is already dry and no amount of blending will rid me of it unless I wash my face.

On lighter complexions, this will not be an issue but if you're part of the chocolate club be mindful that from a distance it may look ok but up close people may raise their eyebrows at why you didn't blend the white specks away - you can't. The worst part for me is when the sunlight hits my face and I'm just a shimmery face of fine gold specks.

Personally this product is more suitable for a night out because it's only then that I notice a beautiful radiant glow as if the sun had lovingly kissed my face during the day. But I don't like highlighters where I can only wear it in the night time or only in the day time! This product wasn't my cup of tea so I happily passed it on.

Australis Highlighter

Not really keen on this product, although it feels nice and goes on nicely to clean skin it has a tendency to remove any makeup you've already applied leaving rather a mess.

The plunger applicator is good when it works properly, otherwise the stuff pops and goes flying all over the place.

Highlighter Power!

Cute little compact case. Great highlight I apply it with my fingers gently on top of my foundation and just love the shine it adds to my cheaks. I got the colout pearl and its great. At first I wasn't to sure of applying a liquid highlight but I got used to it. This has to be one of my faves as it gives a nice dewy kind of finish and makes your cheaks stand out!

Disappointed

I had great hopes for this highlighter however I did not like it and now it just sits in my makeup bag. I found it lifted my foundation and so made it look messy no matter how I applied it. It also does not have much of a highlight when it is applied to your face.

Tips: Would not repurchase

lightweight flawless highlighter

This product is amazing. I am new to highlighing but purchased this product at a great price and its so easy to use its so light but is stunning has a great shimmer to it and blends so nicely. Gives such a stunning shine and really transforms your face. I love it and totally love this brand. Is also great to mix with ur primer to give u a duewy glow finish

Tips: I would defnitly reccomend blending it with a small fine brush so it dosnt lift ur make up underneath

Hardly a Highlighter

This highlighter is very subtle and therefore could have been good for someone wanting a very subtle glow. I found it removed any makeup underneath no matter how well set it was so my foundation would be all smudged and start vanishing. It's also very pink tinged which didn't suit my yellow-based skin tone. Overall it could be great if you're going to wear it with nothing else but I just found it disappointing and not worth the money!
