I had been looking for a highlighter for a while and the cute packaging caught my eye. So I though I might as well try it! Like I said, I love how cute the packaging and the pearls look. After a...

Just white, not really illuminate my skin. I kind of expected natural pinkish bright highlight on my C zone but never worked. I want to get rid of it if I didnt pay 15 dollars on it. I just put it...

Heard good things about this product but gotta say, I did NOT like it AT ALL. The product is not finely milled and is chunky when I tried to use it, whether on a brush or with my fingers and it...

Delivers a beautiful glow! although I have more of an oily skin type, if used correctly, this product can do wonders! instead of applying it all over since i am oily, i only put it in the areas...

Powder was ok on my skin. It very nice and shimmer and would make you look a million dollars if you had dry skin. My skin on the other hand is oily tzone and just after 1 hour, it feels greasy and...

I actually intended to get the beige version of this, and didn't notice until I'd already used it once that I'd grabbed translucent instead--but I'm glad I did. It has just a slight bit of glitter...

A staple in the little bag of makeup I carry in my purse. It has just the perfect amount of shimmer. I'm very particular about wearing light makeup, and most pressed powders look cakey. This one,...

This is a great powder, with a pretty package, but has no mirror, brush or sponge with it. Because I like the formulation so much, I carry it around with a gold dust powder that has a built-in...

My face looks radiance. It can feel a bit oily though but I really like how it looks on my face. The packaging is lovely.

I absolutely love this product! I'm very fair-skinned and have a problem finding a powder that is truly translucent or at least matches my skin color. Not only does this powder control oil, it...

This is a beautifully packaged powder - but didn't seem to control my oil very well nor did it "illuminate" much at all. Also the middle of the powder crumbled long before the outer ring of powder...

I picked this up because I was looking for something with a hint of sheen to set my makeup. Using illuminating liquids (foundations, moisturizers) is all very well, but if you cover the whole...

Was pretty expensive for what you got. Didn't like the consistency and I didn't think it shimmered very much at all. I wasn't looking for a lot of sparkle but I wanted more than I got.

This powder is alright, but really nothing special. It is a good pressed powder with shimmer, but you really don't get much shimmer, so I don't know that I could say it is illuminating. I don't...

Fine milled powder that gives a subtle glow. Very smooth and has attractive, feminine packaging. Only beef with this product (and most PF compact products) is that they tend to crumble so handle...
