Get the Glow as if you're in Love with Makeup Revolution I heart Makeup triple baked highlighter GODDESS OF LOVE - Review, Swatch & Look


Long time, no see right? Well have been a hell lot a busy in the past month and now when all the wedding fiasco is over, I am back to blogging. Recently, Makeup revolution, a UK based brand, has taken the world by a boom. No matter which part of the world is people are going ga-ga over this brand. When it came to Pakistan, I was just sitting back and looking at everyone hauling MUR stuff and giving rave reviews. So when I Heart Makeup line was brought to Pakistan, I couldn't resist more and jumped at the opportunity of trying the Triple Baked Highlighter in "Goddess of Love". Lets see how I found it and is it worth  the hype?

My Experience :

I am a sucker for cute packaging, I confess whether its a blush or a lipstick or a bag or anything else you name it!  This highlighter comes in the most cute packaging ever.  It comes in a heart shaped cardboard box and the product itself is baked in a heart shape. Cute enough but not sturdy to carry it around fearlessly in your purse so its a 50/50 for me. There is a 10 gm of product when packed which is a lot of product ,that is going to last a very very long time even if you use it everyday, thanks to the minimal fall out. The product itself is beautiful dull golden to champagne color and needs multiple swirling if brush to get the product that would actually show up on your face. This is kind of good for me as I  cant go over the top in a single swish and become a disco ball, plus there is zero yes PRACTICALLY ZERO FALL OUT.
When applied to cheekbones it appears as a sheen and not glittery. I really like to keep a light hand on this as it turns out to be pretty frosty if overdone which doesn't appeal to me at all.  The solution to this is spritzing makeup setting spray or rose water at the end that settles down and blends everything giving you a nice and healthy glow. I like to top it over my peach blush as it totally compliments the warm colors. But still the frostiness  makes me reach for it the less than my Elf Blush in Gotta Glow( REVIEW HERE )
The staying power is super amazing, 2-3 hours without primer, Foundation and setting spray and up to 8 hours with all these. So overall this is pretty decent for its price. I wish they had made it a bit less champagne and more of a gold color to compliment the warm skin tones.
*Update* : MUR I Heart makeup Baked range has been extended, now there is another baked highlighter in GOLD GODDESS which is a gold variant of this highlighter. Looking at its swatches online, it seems to me it will be more complimenting to our warm desi skin tones then this one.
