Definitely a good highlighter for those who like highlighters without big messy glitter particles. Albatross gives a beautiful golden sheen to your skin. Don't over do it though, as it can be a bit mu...Read more

This highlighter was not for me. Wayyyy too gold-white, super sparkly, and glitter fallout was everywhere. I'm personally much more of a fan of more of a sheen or more natural.

This color is very pigmented and offers a fantastic highlight/glow. HOWEVER, once the color sits, it begins to turn very yellow and gold, which is very unflattering on my NW20 skin color. This would b...Read more
