FACE BEAT! Contour, baking and highlighting

FACE BEAT! Contour, baking and highlighting

The infamous Naked Palette by Urban Decay is the current craze by beauty addicts and I was ecstatic when I purchased one few days ago. Bascially went to my cousins wedding near London and my other cousin and I went for a little shopping trip, it was a spur of the moment thing and I had no intention of buying the palette or anything remotely close to it.

We popped into Debenhams and this make-up artist practically targeted us when we stepped into the store for a make-over, we told her we were in a hurry (which we were) and I literally stopped for a minute as I saw the palette carried by her. Then literally ran over to the Urban Decay section and nabbed one ASAP, I know the lady was just trying to do her job but she was annoying and so persistent trying to make the customer buy the other products.

The product itself has 12 beautfiul neutral shades very highly pigmented along with an eyeshadow brush and 3.7ml of the infamous primer potion. I won't go into details as their are numerous reviews online anyways but it is worth investing in (£32).

Benefit high beam vs no.7 illuminator

Higlighter gives the va-va-boomness that extra glow on your skin and help give an illusion for more depth and a 3-Dness (wtf not even a word) on your face.
The benefit high beam retails in for £18 which contains 13 ml of products. The high beam has a pink undertone, the product may only have 13ml but u do not need much to give you that GLOW believe me it will last you a very very long time. The no.7 highlighter retails in for £10.50 for 30 ml only available in Boots. It has a peach undertone but boots do also have one with a pink undertone. Both are in the form of a liquid formula so its easy to blend under or over your foundation.

L- High beam R- no.7

High beam comes in a nail polish package with a brush applicator.

With the no.7 highlighter it comes with a built in brush where you can twist them on and off to stop the product from coming out.

Where to apply-
Apply on the apple of our cheeks, cupids bow, browbones and a bit on the t-zone, apply only little because throughout the day it can make you look oily rather then give a healthy glow.
Personally I love both of them for different undertone colours it gives. With the no.7 highlighter I love the peach undertone colour as it compliments my skintone. I dislike the applicator brush, when you need to squeeze the product out it can give out too much of it and goes to waste. With high beam I do also like the pink undertone colour and I like the brush applicator as you can use the amount you want. The high beam may be a bit pricey but I believe its an investment and you would not really require another highlighter. With the no.7, I think as its a drugstore product the quality of it is very good and I don't really know any other drugstore highlighters that has the same quality of the no.7 highlighter.
