I ordered the Julep Highlighter from Prismatic Cosmetics’ Etsy storefront a little under a week ago. There are different buying options; such as if you just want the pan 37mm, the product in a compact or a 44mm pan ($10 – $14). Prismatic Beauty creates highlighters, eyeshadows, and loose glitters and sells their products through Etsy. Julep is a pale, mint green highlighter that is described to have a “smooth” texture. The product is slightly scented I noticed, but it wasn’t anything that bothered my allergies (it’s a slight, sweet, floral scent).
I took pictures of Julep in the natural lighting of the living room. I tried a couple with the flash on, but I felt like the flash washed out the texture too much. The texture of the highlighter really is surprisingly smooth. It was very easy to work with and to blend; you can use a brush for a more sheer, natural look or your finger for a more intense, BAM! effect (personally I used my finger for that).
That is a single swirl in the product on my finger tip. And that’s quite a bit of pigmentation there.
That is a swatch using the product that was on my finger tip. In my opinion, that’s nicely pigmented. Honestly, I’m having a hard time finding anything critical about this highlighter after using it for three days straight and loving every little bit of it.
My only complaint is that the product does have a fragrance, but I am incredibly thankful that it’s not that irritates my allergies or that has caused my skin to break out. I have to admit, I didn’t read the ingredients carefully when I ordered it or I would have noticed that it said “fragrance” in the list, so that’s on me.
Julep is cruelty free and vegan according to the item description and Prismatic Cosmetics do provide a list of ingredients.
I highly recommend trying out Prismatic Cosmetics. I’m looking forward to trying their eyeshadows when I get a chance to do another order and their prices are pretty reasonable (eyeshadows start at $3)! Julep is a beautiful highlighter that’s great for every day (at least I’ve been wearing it every day since I got it).
Thank you for reading! Stay gilded foxes!
