Quick Review: elf Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder in Luminance

I know I always say this, but I've been sitting on this one awhile. I'm conflicted when it comes to elf products. Some are a pleasant surprise while others make me wish I had my dollar back. This one I liked. I'm just not super big on highlighters and rarely wear them. Yes, despite the word "Bronzer" in the product name, this is definitely more of a highlighter. This one is damn good for only $1. The texture is soft, it blends well, and actually gives a glow instead of looking like a glittery eyeshadow fell out on your cheeks. I think this would make a great brow bone highlighter as well.

It looks pretty yellow in the heavy swatch on the left, but it doesn't show up that way when used as a highlighter on your face. Even the blended out swatch on the right is heavier than I would wear it. It blends out to a really pretty, not over the top, sheen.

Thank you for reading and have great day/night/whatever!

  1. Cool! I am obsessed with highlighters... they are so pretty! LOL! But I totally agree, my e.l.f. haul will probably be my only and last... everything was hit or miss. UGH! Consistency, please???

  2. I'm always so happy to see reviews on ELF products I haven't tried. I'm like you. There are some I love and some I really regret buying. I'll definitely try this one out now!

  4. I feel the same way about ELF....some of their stuff is sucktastic and I say to myself, "what the hell did I expect for a DOLLAR?" then I get something that is great, and I'm in love with them. I have this "bronzer" too and I love it! It is a super cheek highlighter. I was surprised by it for sure!

  6. I've always found ELF to be pretty hit n miss too... really wish they sold it in stores here in the UK so I could actually swatch the stuff before I buy it! :)

    I can't believe they've even put the word bronzing on the packaging! Kinda contradicts the whole high-lighting aspect but the shade looks awesome and I like how the shimmer is pretty but not completely OTT ♥
