The Make Up Geek x Kathleenlights Highlighter Palette

I am completely enamored with this palette. It might be the one for me. When you get this (and you absolutely should get this) it is, frankly, underwhelming in the pans. The shades look dark and, unlike most highlighters, the product looks dull. Swatches come out a bit better but still pretty ho-hum. BUT, once you put this on your face, O-M-Gorgeous! It simply tranforms into luminous light that blends and sinks into your skin. What's more, every single shade in the palette does this, even that pink one in the middle that I never thought I'd use as a higlight (maybe as a blush topper). I've developed a liking to pinkish highlights lately but, admittedly, they're not the best on my skin. They tend to look chalky if i go overboard. They just don't blend into my skin seamlessly. This one, Starlight, does. That's what you see there shining brightly at the tops of my cheeks. The other two are just as beautiful (I am having a wonderful time using those too) but, as a medium skintoned girl, a pinkish highlight like Starlight that works so effortlessly on me is a rare gem. If you're only buying one highlighter this year, this should be it.
Thanks to @nicolettemakeup for getting this for me.
On my lips is another Kathleenlights collab, Colourpop Ultra Satin Lip in November.
