Review: LORAC luminizers

With spring and summer just around the corner, have you been looking for a good highlighter to enhance and brighten your complexion?Well, today I bring you two of LORAC's liquid luminizers:
A white pearl and a radiant gold color to add a touch of sunshine to your face!

PROS:
~Oil free
~Free of harmful ingredients [supposedly]
~the bottle contains 0.9 Fl. oz [it will last you forever, seriously]
~Blends easily
~Great to add to foundations

CONS:
~One pump is far too much product, so you waste about 1/3 of what you pup out
[Of course this will vary from person to person, depending on how you use it]
~I find that the gold one dries faster, thus you have to blend quicker, or else it will dry too fast
~$28..kind of pricey

[L to R]: Pearl L1, Gold L2
Pearl, Gold
 This is one pump slightly spread. I did not blend it out, because it was too much product, and it would have looked really ugly. I will try and do a FOTD using this, so you guys can see how it looks like as a highlighter.
Also, I use these in my foundation. If I feel like going for a brighter and fresher look, I use Pearl. If I want a more bronze or golden look, I use Gold. Anyways, these are pretty great. I also use MAC Lustre drops, which I love!
But these contain more product and they are more pigmented than the Lustre Drops.
One highlighter that I really want to try out is the Rouge Bunny Rouge one. But its super expensive, I think like $70!!!

Thanks for reading! What is your favorite luminizer/ highlighter?

  1. Omg, don't get me started on highlighters - I absolutely LOVE highlighters~

    Wow, that IS a lot of product for one pump.. But they look like very flattering colors :D
    FOTD with them on soon? hehe

    I have a lot of different brand highlighters and I recently hauled on some korean cosmetic hightlighters which I am excited to try out! Haven't found my HG yet but still searching!

  6. Hey doll! I have Rouge Bunny Rouge luminzer and the bottle is beautifulllllll! The product itself is also pretty amazing, blends effortlessly and creates a lovely glow. Super expensive though like you said! Ive not tried the Lorac ones, although I have been wanting to buy them. Based off of these swatches they seem very similar to the Bunny Rouge. I would have to test in person of course. MAC CCB in Pearl is great quick easy everyday highlight- it is very natural and very easy to blend. It is less intense though. Also want to tell you that ELF has an AWESOME highlighting liquid.. I cant remember the name of it but its in a little squeeze tube.. .ill have to check on that for you! ♥
