The Affordable Highlighter You NEED.

If you're all about the highlight like I am, you'll have heard of Mac Whisper of Gilt. The limited edition Extra Dimension Skin Finish that sells out within around 3.2 seconds of being released. The beautiful golden highlighter that is literally like gold dust to get your hands on. There are products from a few brands that could be considered in the same family as Whisper of Gilt, Laura Geller Gilded Honey, Mac Oh, Darling! and Anastasia Beverly Hills So Hollywood. However, sometimes these are as difficult to find as Whisper of Gilt! Enter Kiko Water Shadow 208.

Kiko is an Italian brand that is making it's way to the rest of the world. There is a store on Regent Street in London, and now there's a store in the Trafford Centre. 

Let me remind you what Whisper of Gilt looks like.

Technically, the Kiko product is an eye shadow, but believe me when I say that it makes for the most stunning highlight you'll ever see. The formula is SO similar to that of the Mac Extra Dimension range, pigmented and creamy with no fallout. It isn't glittery, so you won't be walking around looking like a disco ball. 

It applies like a dream, not at all too gold or yellow. A light hand and a fan brush can give a subtle glow, but if you're like me and want a Jamie Genevieve or Jaclyn Hill style blinding highlight, this product can really achieve that with ease. 

Please excuse my end of the work day face!

 Seriously, now. You need to get your hands on this pronto. It costs just £8.90! Go. Buy. It.  Imagine it with a tan in the Summer?! *drops mic*
Thank me later ;)
