Like lightning lighting in a bottle.
Sunsets inspire the new highlighting powder from Too Faced, the $32 Sweetheart Beads Radiant Glow Face Powder.
To both set your makeup and give a golden pink/late afternoon glow to your skin, just swirl your brush in the jar of multicolored powder hearts, and apply all over your face.
GURL, you don’t have to tell me about the power of lighting. When I think of how many times my friend Jen and I went clubbing and ended up talking to a dude who looked like a Baldwin in the dim club lighting, but then when the lights came up, we were like, “WHOA?!”
It’s that kind of shared trauma that bonds girlfriends for life. 🙂
Anywho, I was hoping for a full-on, buttery, “sunset in the tropics with a margarita and a hammock” glow from these Sweetheart Beads, but I think the golden pink effect gets a little lost on my NC42 tan… The effect is probably much more dramatic on ladies and gents with light and medium skin tones.
As for the shimmer, don’t worry. You won’t look like a disco ball. 🙂 I think Too Faced handled it well. It’s classy, and more of a sheen than a frost, so it doesn’t appear oily.
PRICE: $32
AVAILABILITY: Coming this summer to Too Faced counters and online

Becca @ The Beauty Sample says
Hm…I don’t know about using this as a finishing powder on my oily skin, but it seems like it would make a nice, subtle highlighting bronzer!
Minsooky says
Like the look – just don’t like the price! Wish highlighters didn’t cost so bloody much >_<
Agata says
Too bad you only gave it a B but since my complexion is lighter maybe it will suit me better? I definitely need to get it, it’s too cute to pass. Btw, what are you wearing on your lips?
Elizabeth says
I love this..not sure if I need another product since I already have some Meteorites but they are pretty adorable!
Lauren says
I actually really like how it looks swatched all together, I think I might get this for myself as my first foray into bronzing!

I am seriously so in love with this whole collection! I just want everything! I think this looks great on you by the way, I love your whole look! :]
Sunny says
Ahh these lil hearts are sooo adorable! The only thing I’m worried about is kicking some out with my brush when I swish it around in the container. It doesn’t look too deep! But still. They’re cute enough for me to make a compromise 😉
Alexa says
I think it looks great on you! Definitely a glowing type of look. 🙂 But if you think it’ll work better for lighter skin… Then yay! Super excited to get this. Any idea of the release date? I know Ulta is supposed to have the summer eyes by thursday. (at least, they’re advertising them for their event)
