Benefit Watt's Up Highlighter

Spring is near in Australia and new beauty trends are coming out. A big beauty trend this spring is dewy skin, illuminated cheekbones and natural eyes.
Benefit's Watt's Up Cream Highlighter is a beautiful product which fits in with the trends this spring like a glove.
I will 100% be wearing this quite a lot this spring (and summer).

As  you can see, the packaging of this product is fun and creative, just like the rest of Benefit's packaging. It is in a plastic tube.
This retails for $30 in the USA and $55 in Australia. You can buy this from any Benefit counter or selected department stores.

There are two sides to this product, the top of it is the cream highlighter, the other side is a sponge applicator. It is suggested that you first apply the product on your face, and then blend it out with the sponge on the other side, but I personally prefer to use my fingers to blend it in because I find the sponge doesn't do as good of job.

The highlighter itself is a light champagne colour with gold undertones in it. This product blends really easily and works really well. This highlighter would complement tan/olive skin tones really nicely.

When applying this product, you have to be careful not to put on too much because you may start looking shiny and too shimmery, and it could look unnatural. 

I would suggest you to apply this product above your cheekbones, done the bridge of your nose (only slightly) and a small amount on your cupids bow.

Overall, this product is lovely. I would definitely recommend it.
