I first shared about this product exactly 5 months back when I broke my NEW YEAR Resolution “OFFICIALLY” and here I’m with the review. The review got delayed as it was totally unjustified to post this before Kevyn aucoin Candlelight but as my pictures are missing from gallery there is a little delay for Candlelight.
You have seen my small collection of KEVYN AUCOIN products here and now I desperately want their sensual skin enhancer and sculpting powder but I feel they are quite expensive as compared to other products with same quality. Nevertheless, if I find something interesting in sale next time at strawberrynet.com I will indulge in some more products.
Coming back to the review of this, STARLIGHT (3.1 gm for 2700/- INR ) is warm toned light peachy pink shimmery champagne shade highlighter but it is not as buttery smooth as I wanted it to be. I have finger swatch of this with candlelight and you can see that one looks little finer as compared to this. The colour is very flattering but if you apply little too much it would look little out of the place.
On my oily skin the highlighter looks nice and intact for good 6 – 7 hrs and gives that luminous sheen without enhancing any pores or unevenness on my skin.
The highlighter comes in small mirrored pan which is almost the size of “2” MAC eye shadows, there is no brush included and a velvet sleeve is provided which looks cute and dainty. I liked the size of the compact but the price is insane for what you are getting.
And this is how it looks on me :
Left : Bare Face , Right – With Highlighter
And here is finished look with CHANEL CREAM Blush PRESAGE :
I tried BECCA HIGHLIGHTERS too and find them absolutely worth every penny and effort. Kevyn Aucoin overall is insanely priced , That’s what I feel.Wait for a round up post once I finish reviewing all the highlighters I picked and that are available currently.
I hope you find the review helpful ?

thank you so much nausheen 😀 😀
Now I am torn between the two! I love Becca’s Moonstone and I prefer liquid highlighters so I think Becca’s Rosegold should be on my list now! 😉

I had no idea if it is available at strawberrynet … 😀 😀 you mean starlight or candlelight ?
That goes so well with Presage! Presage has suddenly come out from the wild, every blogger is talking about/using it 😀 I like the comparison you’ve done with Candlelight. I tried Candlelight in store once but never ended up buying it because my NARS Albatross highlighter was lying around untouched 🙂
