Packaging: Faces Ultime Pro Metaliglow comes in a black outer pack. The highlighter is bottled i a transparent bottle with a pump dispenser.
Product: The highlighter is a shimmery golden fluid that has a tendency to settle down quickly if not blended properly.
My experience: I have used liquid highlighters before but all of those are non-shimmery and has concealing properties. For shimmer I prefer liquid highlighters, but since the recent launches of Faces had been quite good, I was excited to try the Faces Ultime Pro Metaliglow out, in spite of being a shimmery liquid. The pump dispenser gives out a lot of quantity, much more than what you require. The consistency is not runny and there is a tendency to get settled unless blended immediately. If it settles down it becomes difficult to blend it out. If you are blending with your fingers you can feel that some product residue comes out. Not quite what you would like,
Now for the performance, Faces Ultime Pro Metaliglow in Champagne looks a lovely color while you test on your hands, when blended it gives a decent glow, however, it is definitely not something extraordinary. Any shimmer powder would have provided a better result than this. I would rather use this highlighter as an enhancer with my matte foundations, or even add it to a body lotion to give glowing skin. As a highlighter, I would not think of replacing it with my trusted powder ones.
Rating: I am not going into pros and cons, but directly rating it a 3/5
Faces Ultime Pro Metaliglow is for those who likes liquid highlighters with shimmer. It is quite tricky to be used and will require a bit of effort to give the right outcome!! As said, it can be used as an enhancer with foundations and body lotions for a dewy finish.
