I was mooching through Primark one day and whilst browsing through their beauty collection (which is now HUGE!) I clapped eyes on the PS Bronze Highlight & Glow palette. It was square and looked pretty similar to the ABH Glow Kit so I had a peek inside to see that it was a great dupe for Sundipped.
Let's be clear, I don't normally buy 'dupe' products. I'm not hugely against them, but I prefer to buy products that resemble the quality of a product, rather than outright copies them (Let's leave the MUR & Charlotte Tilbury saga out of the comments...).
This was 'similar' to the Sun Sipped palette but still wasn't a complete copy. The shades were all slightly different, the packaging was a bit different too and the quality, whilst both good, are both different too.
The PS Bronze Highlight & Glow Palette costs just £4 and much like the ABH palette has four shades, titled 'Sunbeam', 'Siesta', 'Sundown' and 'Pool Party'.
As anyone who has used the ABH Glow Kit will know, they have a powdery yet buttery consistency without being grainy or glittery at all. With that said, to look at the glow kits do have a bit of chunky glitter in them although, this doesn't appear on the skin. The finish on the skin is incredible and one sweep of this will have you staring at your reflection all day.
With the ABH glow kit being so good, the Primark PS Bronze Highlight & Glow had a lot to live up to and at just £4, I wasn't expecting it to stand it's ground the way it is.
The packaging is flimsy in comparison to the ABH ones and there's not a way to remove one of the pigments to replace it the way there is with the ABH glow kit. At £4 though, who really cares?
Unlike the ABH Glow kits, the Primark PS Bronze Highlight & Glow hasn't got any trace of glitter or powdery texture, it is very buttery and applies beautifully with your fingers, a beauty blender or a RT setting brush.
For me, the shades are quite different. Unlike the ABH glow kit, these are quite opal and irridescent. I find these to have less pigmentation but are equally as glowy. I worked this into my skin twice to get the same result as the Anastasia one and it stayed glowy all day long.
One negative of the Primark PS Bronze Highlight & Glow is that I found the glow looks a little bit 'greasy' after a few hours. It moved a bit on the skin which I've never had with the Anastasia one.
Overall, If I ran out of my ABH Glow Kit, I wouldn't break my heart if I had to use this for a while. I'm a fan of it and would be inclined to use it but if it's hot outside, this is more likely to move on my skin so might stick to the Anastasia version in the Summer.
Have you tried the ABH Glow Kit Primark Dupe out yet?
