LYS Magnificence Real Goal Excessive Multi-Use Liquid Highlighter ($19.00 for 0.6 oz.) is a light-medium, rosy copper with average, heat undertones and a luminous sheen and faint micro-sparkle. It had sheer colour protection, as marketed, that could possibly be used all-over, blended in with basis or moisturizer, in addition to utilized as a standalone highlighter.
The very skinny, runny texture that tended to dispense extra product made the product extra appropriate for masking all-over or mixing in fairly than getting used for smaller, focused highlighting as there was all the time an excessive amount of product that sheered out to almost-nothing. For focused highlighting, I needed to apply it to the again of my hand, wait about 15 seconds for it to dry out a little bit, after which I might apply and get a visual sheen that didn’t sheer out to nothingness. The method dried down totally and lasted effectively for eight hours earlier than fading.

The liquid highlighter is meant for use “over, beneath, or blended along with your basis” and delivers a “superfine” end that will not “accentuat[e] … texture.” That they had very sheer protection because the consistency was very skinny, runny, and needed to be unfold out over a bigger space, even when I used the barest quantity. Consequently, it was higher and simpler to work with blended in with basis (or moisturizer) or utilized generously all-over the face fairly than as a focused highlighter (which is considered one of its three advisable makes use of).
The method was fairly runny initially, but it surely truly dried down once I utilized it as a standalone cheek highlighter. The impact was barely seen and had little glow. After I tried it blended in with basis, I had a barely dewier end from my base that was generated by the liquid highlighter, but it surely was so refined that I nonetheless needed to hunt for it. I feel there are a number of mix-in highlighters in the marketplace now, and this is without doubt one of the weaker ones I’ve tried.
The packaging is irritating to make use of, because it actually needs to be held vertically (with the cap pointing downward) and the product virtually leaks out with the barest strain, however when you attempt to maintain it extra horizontally, the tube has a ton of air and virtually nothing dispenses till you lastly get some, and it is approach an excessive amount of. I additionally don’t really feel {that a} squeeze-tube is the fitting automobile for such a skinny, runny formulation–these are sometimes in bottles (like Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter).
They lasted round eight hours as a standalone highlighter and did not appear to impede the wear and tear of my base/complexion merchandise when used below or mixed-in.
