As someone who's limited their beauty routine during the pandemic, I wear minimal makeup during the day (if any at all), and when I do, I make sure it counts. With the transition to the new fall season [1], I've been looking for a way to hold onto the dewy summer glow without looking too . . . well, summery. Freckle pens, tanning oil, and dark bronzers were too much, but in my opinion, highlighter [2] never goes out of style — no matter the month. So when I noticed that Melt Cosmetics [3] had a new highlighter, I knew it was a sign.
There were a few reasons the SexFoil Liquid Highlighter instantly caught my eye. First, it's a liquid highlighter, which I've found to be easier to apply than its stick counterpart. Also, the shimmery finish looked too good to be true. Determined to find out just how good the SexFoil was, I put it to the test. Keep scrolling to see how it went.
From day to night, the SexFoil had lasting power. After swapping my sweats for a dress (hello, date night), I didn't need to reapply. As I mentioned earlier, a little goes a long way, so be sure to not overdo it. Since it was my first time trying the formula, I originally put on a little more than I bargained for, but now I know less is more.
The overall finish is really tasteful, and it blends in well to both skin and on top of foundation. If you're looking for a product that'll make you glowy all year long, add the Melt Cosmetics SexFoil Liquid Highlighter [4] ($39) to your beauty routine ASAP.
