Best Color Highlighter!

Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2018

The Gilded Honey adds highlight to the face but the color it imparts is the real difference. The Gilded Honey adds a warm, light tan color to your cheeks or wherever you place it. So it creates a contrast to the pink blushes and gives the skin a gentle bronzing effect...very good pigment payoff but you don't have to worry about it over-browning your complexion...watch the highlighting as this product definitely provides it in just one sweep. I use it near my upper cheekbone up to my eyes and touch it on my eyelids. It doesn't add more pink, it combats the pink tones of blush with a subtle layer of tan highlight. Using a light touch you can swipe it on your nose, cupid's bow, chin, and forehead to add warmth and contour the face. I love it although I use it lightly and not low on the face...creates that all over shiny appearance if you overdo. Cheekbones only for me most days.
Great product!

Smaller!

Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2022

This product is less than half the amount I previously ordered on QVC. I am guessing that is why L. Geller quit selling it on QVC - as she has reduced the size of compact and amount of product drastically and still charging a lot. I will keep this but am disappointed in the size of this product and am disappointed in Laura Geller making it so much smaller. That said, I do like the "diamond dust". Disappointed in the size reduction.

I miss the pink color, so was skeptical about the coral — but it’s lovely!

A BIG "MUST HAVE" WINNER!!! NATURAL & VERY PRETTY!!! Buy it & be Happy you did!!!!!!!!

Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2017

Being 58 years old, I was hesitant to order this product. So HAPPY I did!!! I have light olive skin & this worked out so nice for me!!!
I applied it to the top of my cheekbones & lightly down the middle of my nose & it looks so natural & gives you a very healthy looking glow. I received many compliments on my skin when I started wearing it, SO, this is a MUST HAVE in my book!!! I also applied some to my shoulders while wearing a " Cold Shoulder" sweater & it looked so natural & pretty... My skin is on the lighter side, so I believe you could use this color from light to a medium dark skintone. I love it!!!

Phenomenal for price point

I received this as a sample size in a BirchBox probably 3 years ago. The sample size just ran out (granted I did begin using a Becca highlighter more regularly so I'm sure that's why it lasted so long) so I bought the large size from Amazon. I absolutely love this highlighter, especially for night time wear since it's gold (I got the Baked Gelato Swirl color). You don't need a lot, and I use it on my eyes as well as a base! Highly recommend!

Fell in love with this highlighter

Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2016

Verified Purchase

At first, I thought when I had bought it from Amazon that I bought a fake. I had already returned one on here because I figured it was fake, then repurchased from another seller and yet again thought the same thing, so I figured I might as well keep this one I have now instead of going through the hassle of returning again. I kept it in the box and I threw it into my drawer for about a month.

I recently visited Ulta and compared it to the one I bought on here. It's real! Phew. I was so worried because I just don't like the thought of wearing fake makeup, you never know what ingredients could be in it.

Anyways, about the actual product:

I really fell in love with this highlighter. It's small for the $26 price tag, yes, but I think this is going to last me a while. When swatched, it's super pigmented and creamy, with only a slight powder feeling. It blends on the face nicely and gives a great glow! This color is perfect for all skin tones. I'm a fair colored girl and it doesn't look too dark on my skin like other highlighters have before (for example: Dark Horse Skin Frost by JS). It looks great over a peach toned blush and some contouring.

Laura Geller is really known for these gelato swirl highlighters, and there's a reason for that. Top notch product. I want more colors!

I'll have to come back and add some photos cus this stuff makes me look like I was touched by Zeus

I got the small version of this highlighter in a Birchbox subscription a couple years ago and I used it every day for about a whole year. So this stuff is dense as HELL. You barely need any for it to show up, and it'll last you forever (for everyone complaining about the size).

When my little sample ran out, I tried about 5 other highlighters before caving and getting this one again. Nothing compares. I'll have to come back and add some photos cus this stuff makes me look like I was touched by Zeus.

I was wanting to try a different highlighter and this looked interesting.
It is VERY gold and pigmented. After a short learning curve, I now enjoy using it. I think it will be best for me during the summer months.

Beautiful illuminator

Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2016

Verified Purchase

This is a great illuminator! I'd been searching for a dupe of a 2013 limited edition Estee Lauder illuminator called Heat Wave, and this is it! It goes on smooth and looks great on my NC15-NC20 skin tone. The texture is also very similar to the gelee formula used for Heat Wave. My only complaint is that it really doesn't travel well. I put it in my makeup bag to take on a trip, and it completely shattered. If you're not planning on taking it anywhere, it's pretty perfect!
