LIP: Are cheek highlighters worth it?

I am looking at Dioskin's Shimmer Star (Amber Diamond)- many people seem to rave about this product, but I'd like to hear from real Nesties. Is this product worth it?

Is it versatile?

Re: LIP: Are cheek highlighters worth it?

  • I have a sample I got from smashbox a couple years ago that I like. I also have one from clinique. 

    Personally, I will use it as eyeshadow and sometimes as a highlighter, but I just prefer my tarte amazon clay blush and a matte look.

    Part of it too is some are soooo shimmery, and some really just add enough for a highlight. You have to find the one you prefer. 

    ETA...if you want to try one as a blush, give the smashbox soft fusion lights a shot. The one I have is a shade too dark for my skintone, but since you're Asian,it may work perfect...I use the lighter colors as a highlighter from time to time and ignore the darker colors :) The baked version would be good for'more shimmer

  • I'm not the biggest fan of shimmer in my blush.  I prefer a simple plain blush with high light on the tops of my cheeks.  I use a really cheap ELF highlighter and it works great. If you have any enlargement in your pores, the highlighter can just make them look bigger, I think.  
  • I really like liquid highlighters.  I wear blush on my cheeks, and then a highlighter on the tops of my cheekbones.  I use a Revlon product (that has been discontinued - boo!) and also Benefit High Beam.  I love both.
  • This stuff is supposed to be awesome, and when I've made a large dent in the products I already have, I want to buy this:  http://www.beccacosmetics.com/us/store/best-sellers/all-best-sellers/shimmering-skin-perfector/
