Makeup Revolution London Vivid Baked Highlighter Golden Lights – Review and Swatches


Hello beautiful people! No matter the season or occasion it never hurts to bring a little glow to your face so today I will be sharing my thoughts on this new highlighter that caught my eye by Makeup Revolution London from their Vivid Baked Highlighter series in Golden Lights.

Product Claims

It is a unique formulation and shape of powder. Three shades available for perfect highlights.


What Do I Think?

For starters, the packaging is made of quite sturdy material with a lid that clicks in place securely so hopefully it will not smash to smithereens if you accidentally drop it. I really like the swirly design of the actual product and with its creamy colour strangely reminds me of vanilla custard. It has one of the silkiest textures I have ever come across in a powder highlighter. Golden lights can be picked up effortlessly if you lightly run your finger over the swirls but surprisingly the pattern holds and does not crumble beneath your finger even under greater pressure so there is absolutely no fall out. The pigmentation made me really happy because it was so intense! Golden Lights blends beautifully and evenly with the prettiest pale gold sheen imaginable. Yellow toned beauties are not even going to feel like they have put on a highlighter because it will match so well and give you that much sought after inner glow. You can use any soft brush to pick up the product and blend it onto your cheekbones, forehead, and the bridge of your nose, chin, cupid’s brow and brow bone. You can create a heavier layer by applying it with your finger and blending it gently. On my combination skin over foundation it lasted over 8 hours before I removed it myself. As you can clearly see in the swatches the baked particles of this product are almost microscopic and present a gorgeous layer of subtle golden shine on your skin perfect even for daytime. All in all I am really impressed with the performance of this product which is amazing for its price.
