i did't like the way this made my skin look. it had this ashy effect on me. it's probably better for people with fair skin.

What a disappointment. I wanted to use the Strobe Cream on my legs for a glow after reading about it being used for this in a magazine, what a joke. It gave me no more of a glow or shine than...

I know some people comment on how this product fails to show up on their face, but I'm Chinese and got slightly tanned skin, so this thing shows up on me. I don't know what its ingredients are,...

I really like this stuff. Subtle and believable, it gives a soft glow to the skin. Mix it with foundation, wear it under/over powder foundation, highlight arms and legs. The bottle is a good size,...

I love this highlighter in a bottle! Before I put on foundation I take a pea-sized amount and mix it with a small dab of Mac's Select coverup liquid concealer, using a foundation brush to dab it...

This is not really a highlighter. For that purpose, there are other products that work better to give shimmer. But I use this UNDER my foundation and it really adds a nice luminescence. It comes in...

Wasn't noticeable on my pale skin... also, it felt very waxy. Not worth the money.

There are many reasons that I didn't like this product. First of all, it didn't show up on my pale skin. (I'm giving it a 2 not a 1 because maybe it will show up better on other complexions.)...

This highlighter from MAC is supposed to impart a radiant glow to the skin. It comes in a white tube with a white almost opalescent hue to it. Looks great coming out of the tube. However, when I...

This did'nt do a whole lot except feel like a mask of thick makeup on. It did'nt have a whole lot of shimmer and felt greasy.

Fun idea, but a little greasy as is the Hyper Real Foundation. Too much oil in these products! JT

Again, not one of MAC's best products. It's a cream that is supposed to make tired skin look more alive. If you have a pale complexion like I do, don't use this. Use Benefit's Moon Beam instead....
