Favorite go to highlight color for your eye

I tend to use Grain or Dazzlelight. I used to love Ricepaper but either they changed the formula or my tastes have changed because I find it very ashy of late. I swore by Ricepaper when I was much younger.

I still use Ricepaper at times. I hardly ever hit pan on anything so I still have a rather old Ricepaper. Sometimes I'll use MAC's Blanc Type, All That Glitters, Vanilla Pigment, Subtle Pigment, or if I'm very neutral, I'll just go with concealer.

I'm convinced the Ricepaper available now isnt the same. Even my sister feels the same way. I forgot to mention Vanilla pigment as a highlight and also Naked pigment.

Chiming in to say that my most used highlight colors are Naked p/m, Blanc Type e/s, Vanilla p/m and Malt e/s.  I also like Baby Petals e/s, from the Heatherette Trio 2 for pink/purple looks.  Oh, and Naked e/s from Urban Decay.

That makes me sad. I know the world is an ever changing place but some things need to remain the same. I'll probably have the same Ricepaper until I die. LOL!  

I think a lot of people like MAC's Arena too.

I like matte colors or eye looks with mostly matte and maybe one frosty color. I find myself really liking "Universal Mix" pigment from the All Races collection. It's a super super light, but not quite white, nude that is very slightly shimmery. It goes well with natural eye looks and smokey eyes and is more natural-looking than using a super frosty highlight. Think "naked" pigment, but a lot lighter and less peach.

I think a lot of mineral make up companies like fyrinnae make a similar color, but maybe more peachy.

i love blanc type and ricepaper. Does anyone know when they switched the ricepaper? I just was wondering if I had the old one of new one.

I love Era, Naked Lunch, Blanc Type, Vanilla Pigment, Arena, Motif

Carefree by MAC (prolongwear eyeshadow).  It looks white, but it's actually like a warm, sheer champagne gold on the skin.  It looks beautiful on very fair to very deep skin.

Carefree replaced vanilla pigment & ricepaper eyeshadow for me. 

I keep looking at Carefree but I neva pick it up I think im going to get it soon

MAC Arena!  I love that color for a subtle highlight.  such a beautiful sheen.  A MUA at MAC used Mylar (or nylon....omg. I think it was mylar)  and it looked really beautiful if you want that "I'm wearing a highlight and it's gorgeous" look vs something more subtle. also from the UD Naked 1 palette, naked and virgin mixed together works nicely.

i cosign on mac arena

I love Ricepaper, Shroom, Naked Pigment and Naked 2's Bootycall.

Boring as it sounds I really like Grain on my NC20-25 skin.  Just a nice sheen, nothing too flashy. My second favorite is Ricepaper and then All that Glitters. 

I usually use white frost for the inner corner, but nylon is beautiful too.  I dont usually highlight under the brow with e/s, i just take whatever actual highlighter im using that day and sweep a bit under the arches :)  Usually MSF or Lorac.

MAC Sunday Best (gorgeous!), Chamomile, or Goldenaire pigment. I also like Jardin Aires.

For Brow Bone - shroom, brule, orb or vanilla

For Inner Corner - Ricepaper, MAC Jaunty or naked lunch
