WATT'S UP?!

After re-vamping my cosmetic bag I decided that I need to take more care with my make up products and begin to invest in some high quality pieces. I am sucker for sticking to certain brands that suit me well and not experimenting. However, I have promised myself that every month from now on I plan to indulge in a new fresh piece. This months buy is Benefits new Watt's Up Highlighter cream stick.

The product- notice the soft tones

I have been searching for a while for a highlighter which is versatile enough to suit my everyday regime, but also to be used into the evening or for a night out. Primarily I wanted something which is simple to apply- I tried to steer away from a liquid  (as I am pretty bad with blending evenly) , so when I discovered benefit's new product I was delighted. The champagne tones compliment my ivory skin tone, but adapts well with tanned/golden skin (as I tend to get a tad 'fake tan' happy sometimes).  The soft focus highlighter is so easy to apply because its basically just a stick that smooths over the areas where you want a luminous glow- usually below the brow, on the tip of the nose and above the cheek bones.- there is also a soft sponge blender to make sure it is evenly distributed on the skin. The great thing is that it is really durable, unlike other highlighters I have used, it stays all day!

Watt's Up retails at £24.50 for 9.4g, but it's totally worth it to achieve that dewy, healthy glow! Check out Benefit Cosmetics site to read more reviews on the product or to make a cheeky purchase... You won't regret it!!
