PUR Cosmetics Sun Kissed Glow Strobe Highlight Palette (Now On Sale) Review and Swatches

Yesterday, I talked about BAD GLOW! Today, let's look at GOOD GLOW! Last year, PUR Cosmetics came out with a Sun-Kissed Glow palette (still available now $18 orig. $34)! I purchased it, but never opened it. I barely knew the difference between highlighters & luminizers, let alone STROBING! As I swatched it (a couple of months ago), I asked myself why did I buy this palette? HaHaHa I wasn't very enthused with the swatches on my hand. It wasn't until I applied the product, that I remembered WHY I purchased this! It was the EFFECT that these gave my skin! Sometimes you don't want a highlighter (bling bling)! Sometimes you don't want a luminizer (which is pretty much bling & glow to a lesser degree)! Sometimes you just want LUMINOSITY (light) for your face! That's where STROBING comes in! Let me tell you who should LOVE strobing! DRY SKIN TYPES (like me). When you have dry skin, sometimes it looks DULL. There's no glow! There's no light! This also happens with age. When you're young, for the most part your skin is VIBRANT! You don't have to do much when it comes to achieving light to the face! As you get older, that vibrancy decreases and you have to find ways of putting it (Vibrancy) back into your skin. Using great skincare is one! Eating well is another! Exercise increases circulation and helps put it back in! Getting a good nights rest really helps! Then there is MAKEUP (adding luminosity/light/vibrancy to the skin)! With this palette, you can use one or all colors at one time! I used a beauty blender for application. I applied these creams to my nose, cheeks, forehead, cupids bow & chin. Application of these can be done either before or after foundation application. Dusk, the darker of the shades can be used to contour or bronze. It gives a wonderful tanning effect (as you'll see in my picture below)! These blend effortlessly & seamlessly with your other makeup. They look much better on the face, then on the hands LOL The only people that I wouldn't recommend this to are OILY SKIN TYPES. You're already dealing with shine, and I feel this would be too much and may exacerbate the problem. But if you want a wonderful lit within glow, this is a great purchase. If you're not into creams, BECCA makes a lot of skin perfectors (like this champagne pop one), that you can pump into foundation or use on it's own. But this one from PUR is more economical.
