MUA :shimmer highlighter :REVIEW

Spring is upon us and for some of you it might be time to whip out your favourite highlighter to give your winter dull complexion a healthy glow . I have a few highlighter's in my collection but i couldn't resist this latest offering from MUA and who could blame me? At only £3 this has to one of the most affordable highlighters on the market and for that alone it is well worth a try.

As some of you may know MUA have been re-packaging some of their older products ,changing from their black and clear topped products to a white version. I personally prefer the new packaging as it looks slightly less cheap. Obviously their packaging is nothing innovative or stylish but it is the product itself that is important.

The first thing you will notice upon opening the packaging is the gorgeous, intricate design which is ingraved into the product which i think adds a little extra something.
The highlighter itself is what i would call a cool-toned pink and actually looks much cooler in person that it photographs. This is the only highlight shade available so this is supposed to be fairly universal. I would personally say this would look best on cool and pale tones as it is quite cool in tone but that is up to personal preference.

Once applied to the skin its gives a very subtle luminescence to the skin without being overly glittery or metallic looking. This would be a perfect highlighter for those of you like me who prefer a subtle glow rather than being covered in shimmer or glitter. I have some enlarged pores and found that it didnt accentuate those at all so a perfect highlighter for those who may have some slight imperfections or fine lines.
