:iagree: Mine is going back. I did not enjoy those exact aspects.

formula of most of the MSFs is so superior compared to this
I will try it again tomorrow. Color is not unique either...

My Highly Illogical went back. I feel guilty because everyone loves it, but the texture is soooo dry! And I when I swatched it next to other highlighters, its not unique enough in my collection to stay. I exchanged it for the Chanel blush from the Le Rouge Collection No1 which is :heart::heart::heart:

Thank you sooo much for the great swatches! It does look very pretty. Is it super shimmery on?

I don't find it really shimmery. There is some glitter but it's small and doesn't bother me. I do agree with others that it's drier in texture than most of my other highlighters but I didn't have any problem applying it with my Sephora hakuhodo highlighter brush, haven't tried it with any others. If you are on the fence I would just skip. It's pretty in the pan but nothing special on the face. I'm keeping mine but skipping the rest of the collection.

I love that brush! It picks up pigment like no other brush I have.

I just got my Luna Luster, so pretty in the pan but the glitter seems a tad cray even if I havent swatched it yet.

My items are here! Everything is so pretty, I think I'm going to put on the nail polish tonight if I don't get too lazy. It's really unique in person, definitely makes me think of some kind of space lizard or something lol I'm also happy with the powder and eyeshadows, I'll probably try those out tomorrow.

For the swatches (since the pic is on it's side)- bottom is Luna Luster, top is The Naked Time. The To Boldly Go is for my mom so I didn't want to swatch it but it's a gorgeous shade!

The glosses are amazing! Warp Speed Ahead and Khaaannnn! are soooooo pretty with gorgeous reflects glitter. I'm not even a glitter person but WSA looks like High Top lipstick in gloss form (uber cool sheer purple base with reflects teal and blue glitter/shimmer) and Khaaannnn is a very sheer berry with reflects very pink (I am guessing, it's a very pinky red sheer glitter). Even though both are glittery they don't read as over the top, they just look really juicy!

I have much sadness. Mine arrived yesterday and I had a lot of hope (Haven't had time to play yet) but that looks .... not so wonderful for $34. I appreciate the swatch Monsy!! I'll break mine out when my schedule slows over the weekend but the "meh" reports I'm seeing are killing my 'Star Trek' buzz.
