Laura Geller Review: Baked Gelato Swirl Illuminator Palette

Of course, the packaging is GORGEOUS. The design and layout of the product is innovative and simple. It's a reasonable size to carry while traveling (although they sell singles too). Laura Geller's products are vegan, and cruelty-free so I recommend this makeup line to all skin types especially acne-prone and sensitive skin. While these are BOMB highlighters, I also use them for eyeshadow. These highlighters are currently my favorite in the industry besides Lancome, due to the amazing pigment and radiance it gives you without looking like makeup.

When applying as eyeshadow, you can apply some water (or setting spray) to your brush or place a drop on the product to give you an intense, moisturizing gleam. I highly recommend that method for my mature skin clients and/or dry skin. All you have to do is use your finger to pick up the product and often times works better than a tool; creates a suede-like feel for a longer lasting wear.

It's currently my go-to daily HL and I only need to apply it once for 24 hours. Also, you get your moneys worth ($32 for trio) because it lasts you for a considerably long time (at least 6 months) f used everyday, making it a great investment. Laura Geller included a dual ended sponge applicator although you get best results with your clean fingers and/or natural-haired brush. Remember, synthetic brushes are best used for liquids and creams while natural haired brushes are best suited for powders… You’ll notice a considerable difference once you use your tools correctly, plus application will be smoother and more seamless.

For the trio, you get 2 grams of each highlighter and expires after 18 months. I tend to run out within 6 months since I use it almost everyday for myself and clients, but 1.5 years is so worth your money. Also, pat some on your decollate, shoulders, and above your breasts for a full on #GLOW. You’ll be gleaming like no other and it’s quite resistant to water.
