*A little review #2*
Benefit's Watt's Up! soft focus highlighter.
Recently I realised my make-up, although doing a great job at making me remotely attractive, was not cutting it! I needed something to brighten up my face and maybe, by some miracle give me a 'summery glow'. After some research I decided I was in dire need of the high beam highlighter so I ventured into my nearest Debenhams. Here I stood inches away from the high beam and this little miracle caught my eye! I decided to conquer my fear of make-up counter shopping and my fear of other people applying my make-up at once and asked if I could see what this highlighter looks like; it turned out to be love at first sight!

Now this is the perfect bronzing, feature-enhancing little miracle! For those that are a little shy, or feel they cannot pull-off bronzer but would like to add a little colour to their face, this is what you need. The picture above shows you what it's like on my skin, however you would never put so much on your face. It blends very nicely into the rest of my make up, however I have not been using the round sponge applicator to apply it; I preferred to either use my fingers our blend out with a stippling brush.
As the benefit counter-girl was applying the highlighter she let a great tip slip! What I like to do with the product is applying it straight to my cheeks by drawing a straight line up my cheekbone and then using my stippling brush and my blusher blend it out! When using a blusher over the product it leaves you with a flawless summery glow whilst still remaining natural-looking.
So if you'd like to warm up your face and accentuate some areas, this is a great little one-stop product that will do the job. Although a little pricy at £24.50 I do think it is worth it and should last you absolutely ages!
