This year, Revlon has launched PhotoReady Insta-Fix Highlighting Sticks. There are two shades available: Pink Light for lighter skin and Gold Light for a darker complexion. If you are among those to whom highlighting is a time-consuming routine, Revlon Insta-Fix is a perfect choice. After trying out Highlighting sticks, highlighter will most likely be regularly included regularly in your makeup routine.
It can be applied directly to your face and blotted with your fingers, or you can apply it with a brush. The packaging is very practical and easy to use.
A great highlighter that deserves a place also in your bag
For my skin tone, I picked the shade Pink Light with pearly-silvery particles, which illuminate the skin very nicely, without too much glitter. As an advantage over competitive products, I would point out just the right shimmer-level and the texture that is smooth and silky and easily glides onto skin. Staying power is good – if you do not touch your face during the day, it lasts until evening.
The formulation is excellent, great ingredients choice for all ingredient-conscious users. The base is made of silicones, waxes, fatty acids and other lipids that provide a silky smooth application while protecting and nourishing the skin on the face. In addition to usual ingredients for highlighters such as pigments and glittering particles, vitamins C and E, vitamin B3, oatmeal hydrolyzate and hydrogenated jojoba oil are also included in the formulation. It does not contain preservatives parabens, formaldehyde releasers, BHT, or alcohol.
