Seventeen Wow! Skin 3 way highlighter - Review

I've not really tried out too many highlighters but on my recent trip to Boots I spied this and thought it looked really lovely and had to try it out!

Seventeen Wow! Skin 3 way highlighter - £5.99

This is described as a 3 way highlighter, it says you can use it to: prime, add to your foundation or apply onto the cheek bones. I have tried out all three ways to see how I feel about it and to be honest I'm not as impressed with it as I thought I would be. 
It is a really lovely pretty colour but it's not the right tone for my skin colour, it's a pink toned white colour but my skin tone is more yellow so it doesn't really look great on me even when my foundation is applied over the top, also it made my skin extra oily and just made my make up melt off even in this cold weather and with a setting spray which was not pleasant, so I won't be using it as a prime or in my foundation again but it might work better with a dry and pinkier skin tone and type. 
However, I do like using it as just a highlighter on my cheek bones over the top of my foundation, it's really subtle but creates a really nice sheen which looks really pretty in this colder weather. 
It comes with a pump which is handy but it's one of those pumps where it squirts out so a lot is wasted when you only want a really small amount and a little bit goes a long way! 

I really want to see this on someone with a pinkier undertone to their skin because I think it will look incredible. For the amount of money it is i think it's a nice little product but will sadly not be repurchasing this again!

  1. I know what you mean about pink toned highlighters, I've been on the hunt for a relatively cheap golden toned highlighter for ages with little luck. Lovely review :)

    1. You should definitely try the Topshop highlighter in crescent moon, it's a really beautiful yellow gold highlighter! Massive product so will literally last forever!
