This might be a favorite for those who aren't fans of shimmer.
ConsIt's quite drying. I had to stop using it because the areas where I applied the highlighter became too dry.
TipAccording to a MAC store employee, this can also be used as an under-eye brightener before applying dark circle concealer.

It has fine shimmer particles and definitely gives a highlighter effect. The peachy color is quite nice too.
ConsIt feels heavy and makes my skin dry. When I apply it under my eyes, it seems to make my makeup separate and feels even more drying. I've only used it a few times before giving up. It's especially overpriced for what it is. The twist-up packaging is frustrating - barely any product comes out, but when you keep twisting, suddenly too much dispenses at once. It's infuriating!

Dark Circle Coverage The shade is great for covering dark circles. Of course, it's probably best suited for those with skin tones up to #21. Anyone with a darker complexion might find it too light. 2. Design Sleek black color with a slim design. It's easy to carry and fits nicely in makeup bags. But honestly, you probably won't need to take it out much... 3. Personal Satisfaction If you're into cosmetics, you probably own a few MAC products. There's a certain satisfaction in saying, 'I have a MAC highlighter!' It gives you that feeling of owning a not-so-cheap highlighter... though it's a bit bittersweet, haha.
ConsIt was tough trying to think of good points... To be honest, I was quite disappointed while using this product. 1. Dryness It's supposed to be a liquid highlighter, but when you apply it, it goes on quite thick and matte. It's meant for use under the eyes, but it's dry and doesn't adhere well, giving a slightly cakey appearance. 2. Color The color is very light with a strong pink undertone. While many people have fair skin these days, you absolutely must test this to see if it matches your complexion. 3. Inconvenient Packaging This product has a brush on one end, and when you twist the other end, you hear a click and a small amount of liquid highlighter comes out. It's hard to control how much product you get. Often, you end up with more than you need, and since you can't put it back, you have to wipe off the excess. It's wasteful, especially considering how pricey this tiny thing is. Also, you can't always clean the brush, which feels a bit unhygienic. 4. No Intention to Repurchase I've just stashed it away after buying... I'm sure skilled makeup artists could make good use of it. While it might be due to my lack of technique, I prefer products that are easy to use and suit me well. This highlighter is just too challenging for me.

It definitely gives a highlighting effect or a 'lit-from-within' look. Plus, it's super convenient to carry around!
ConsIt's quite pricey, and on my yellow-toned skin, it shows up as a very pale pink. The worst part is how drying it is! It's impossible to apply over foundation, and it's useless for touch-ups. I have dry skin, so it's a no-go in winter. For summer, the color is just too light and washed out.
TipAny tips on how to make this work? I hate to waste it. Make sure to test it and check the color in natural light before buying. I'm wishing I had chosen a different shade.

From that moment on, it became my holy grail product! I've wanted to buy it ever since, but haven't gotten around to it yet. I've seen many reviews saying it's drying, but I think it's worth using even if I have to combat the dryness with other products.
ConsIt feels really drying if you don't apply an oil balm underneath.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe liquid formula provides excellent adherence, and with minimal pearl content, there's hardly any excess shimmer. Even with the pearls, they stay put on the skin due to the liquid texture. I bought this as a multi-purpose product for aegyo-sal (under-eye area), dark circle coverage, and as a highlighter. It works great for covering bluish dark circles with its pink undertone. It's also perfect as a highlighter if you want to avoid a robotic look, giving a more natural, dewy appearance that makes you look healthy and radiant.
ConsFirst off, the pink undertone is quite strong and didn't match my complexion. I have a general pinkish flush on my cheeks, so applying this highlighter even lightly on my forehead or apple zone made my entire face look overly pink. It also didn't suit my skin tone, so the highlighting effect was disappointing. After application, it felt a bit drying and seemed to sit on top of the skin rather than blending seamlessly. Additionally, it's difficult to control the amount dispensed, and the applicator can't be cleaned, making it unhygienic. I ended up cutting the applicator off, but that made the product come out even stranger. If possible, don't cut it - it's better to wipe the applicator with a cotton pad before use.

The attached brush makes application convenient and easy to control the amount.
ConsThe brush can be difficult to clean, which might be a bit unhygienic, and the product can feel slightly drying. It's best used over a rich moisturizing base. I also noticed it caused some minor blemishes on my skin.
TipFor dry skin types, make sure to use a rich moisturizer underneath!

ConsIt can dry out the skin if you apply too much, so make sure to use it after your skincare routine but before your base makeup.

ConsThe value for money isn't particularly outstanding. Also, those with dry skin might find it a bit dehydrating.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThis is my holy grail product! It's MAC's Prep + Prime Highlighter. You can apply it before foundation or BB cream to even out your complexion and add a radiant glow. It's also great for highlighting after base makeup - just dab it on the bridge of your nose, under eyes, center of chin, forehead, or anywhere you want extra luminosity. The portable size is perfect for touch-ups when your makeup starts to fade or settle. I love how it feels light and powdery, melting into my skin so naturally. Now I can't imagine doing my makeup without it! I highly recommend stopping by a MAC counter to try it out for yourself.
ConsWhile it has a nice powdery finish, it can look a bit patchy if your skin is very tired and dry. The twist-up applicator can be tricky - you can't retract the product once it's dispensed, so be careful not to over-apply.
TipWhen you want to look naturally flawless without obvious makeup, just apply this to any dull areas and blend outwards. It creates such a seamless 'no makeup' look that even my mom can't tell I'm wearing anything!
