Liora Glow Wardrobe Highlighting Palette Pressed Shimmer and Satin Shades for Eyes and Cheeks in One Compact

Liora is one compact covering the whole range of glow, from a barely there satin to a full shimmer. Most people own a highlighter that is either too subtle to see or too strong for daylight, and end up using neither. Having the range side by side means you pick the intensity to suit the light you are actually going into, rather than owning the wrong one twice.

The shades work on both the eye and the cheek, which is what makes a compact this size worth carrying. The lighter satins sit on the brow bone and the inner corner of the eye, the mid tones work as an all over lid wash, and the brighter shimmers go on the top of the cheekbone and down the bridge of the nose. Nothing here is so pigmented that it only works in one place.

The powder is finely milled and pressed rather than loose, so it picks up cleanly on a brush without a cloud of fallout across your finished base. It blends at the edges instead of sitting as a stripe, which is the difference between a glow and a visible line of product. Build it in thin layers, and tap the brush off before it touches your face. A mirror is set into the lid.
