there are so many things wrong with this product. if you have oily skin, the shimmer in this just makes it look worse. if you "pat" it over the top of your foundation, which is the suggested use, it just moves your foundation around and all your hardwork is undone. you can mix it into your foundation for a "dewy" look, but i would only suggest this for very dark skin with pink undertones, as it is a pinkish gold, and not if you are oily. the applicator is like a nail polish bottle and the product gets gooey and gross all around it. the top breaks off really easily. i worked for benefit for a year and i had to try to sell this to people and i felt horrible every time someone bought it, because i knew it was one of the worse things they make!! there are much better highlighters out there, don't waste your money on this dud.
I have high beam, but moon beam is more natural looking on my skin. It has a slight pink sheen to it, but nothing dramatic at all. It makes me look more awake & pretty without looking obviously made up. High beam is more dramatic and obvious even if you apply a little bit, so i love Moon Beam on me. It is really expensive, but ive had my bottle for over a year & i have a lot left continued >>
I have never had a product solely for highlighting before, so i decided to purchase Moon Beam. I had swatched it about 10 times in Ulta but could never convince myself to spend $24 on a highlighter. But I finally made the plunge and i'm glad i did. I will mostly use this as a inner corner and brow bone highlight. But I have also used it on the cheekbone if i want to add a little bit of glow. I like this product and although it is subtle, it does exactly what i wanted it to without making me look like a 8 year old who caked on body glitter from Claires
its really subtle. it does illuminate my face but nothing too dramatic. I hate mixing it with my tinted moisturizer because it doesnt set well and makes my pores look huge.it looks really nice when used on my body i wouldnt buy this again.

Better than High Beam in that it is less harsh and less obvious that you are wearing it, but it has the same problems with texture and it dries too fast often leaving streaks.
Not a make up bag essential, but I'd probably buy it again.
This product didn't deliver on the "glowing" results I had hoped for. I was a little aprehensive about buying it as it seemed to be a little pricey, but I did it anyway and couldn't wait to try it. Well, I tried it on a number of different areas on my face, on top of my makeup, underneath my makeup, on bare skin with no make-up at all and while I noticed a slight shimmer/glow straight away, within an hour or so, it had gone. I don't really know who I can recommend this product to as I'm not sure how it manages to make some women glow and others don't see it at all.
All I can recommend is that you try before you buy. I didn't and I do regret it because it's just sat in my make-up bag not getting used.
This product is amazing! It's not obvious that you're wearing it but it makes your face glow. It's my full night of sleep in a bottle and since I'm in college I need it! I will buy this product again, no doubt about it.
This is a beautiful peachy gold glow, but it doesn't show up HUGELY on my face, so that's why only 3 lippys. I would recommend it for darker skin. It would like amazing on African Americans for sure.

I brought this highlighter cause of all the hype it was getting. I was hoping it was gonna give me that ~Glow~ I've been searching for. I applyed this to my brow bone,nose,cheeks and it didnt even show up. It did nothing for me. I tryed not blending its just like it dispears. I think its pretty pricy for an Highlighter. It would of been nicer if it wasnt like a nail polish applicator, very unsantary. Would not buy again. TRY THIS GIRLS BEFORE YOU BUY. I reccomd swatching it walk around and see if it remains. The lighting in the stores are so much different from ours.

So, the first time I got this product I was enamoured. But the second time I purchased it, I wasn't too thrilled. It's sitting in my drawer, and every now and then I use it in the vain hopes that I might fall in love with it again, but each time it disappoints. I doesn't give me that 'glow' anymore.
I don't know, ladies. I think this really is a matter of trying the product at the counter and wondering around with it on for a while before you commit.
