I’ve been using the lumi glotion over the warmer months to give myslef a subtle glow without the need of foundation this wonderful formula glides on like butter and melts into skin leaving it glowy add some blush a lip and mascara and you’ve got a easy glam look
Charlotte Tilbury flawless filter.
I think that this Charlotte Tilbury primer/highlighter/correcter is one of the best beauty products ive ever tried.its very easy to apply so goes on light weight.i will definitely be buying this every single time i run out of it. Im so happy with the formula.

I can’t lie… I literally had to inhale after applying this—because WOW. This product is everything it claims to be and more. As someone who truly cares about how flawless my skin looks (and feels), this is now a staple in my routine. The glow is unreal—like you’re lit from within.
Elf Halo Liquid Glow Filter
One of my favourite makeup products, it is so cheap and the perfect dupe for the Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter Foundation. As someone who doesn't like makeup feeling too heavy on their face, this product glides on providing a subtle amount of coverage and a glowy complexion. It just adds a bit of life to your skin while not concealing your true texture.
Favourite primer/glow products
I adore this it is so much better than the Charlotte tilbury Hollywood flawless filter and it is a lot cheaper too ?! There is actually no difference it comes in a huge shade range and it looks beautiful!! I absolutely adore it! I would never waste money on any of its competitors!!
Slightly disappointing
I am a huge fan of elf products as a lot of people are and most of the time their dupes are an absolute vibe🤩. But this halo glow highlight wand just isn't for me, I really wanted to love this product but can't as sometimes it doesn't blend out well and leaves it looking blotchy. It feels like it would be soft to blend out but it's not. I'm massively disappointed because it is a dupe and it's very affordable so give it the benefit of the doubt but personally I feel like elf has done such good dupes in the past and this could be better xx
Leaves skin with a nature glow
I love how light this foundation is. It’s my holy grail for a dewy look that makes me have glowing skin that is light weight and not patchy looking or too much and it doesn’t settle in fine lines leaving creases. Great if you looking for a natural but little coverage look blends in great.
Elf Halo Glow
This liquid foundation is such an amazing product. When I put it on my whole face glows and doesn’t even feel or look like like foundation which makes it so great for whenever you want to glow and look a bit more tanned. This product doesn’t break me out but I have heard that it does that to some people so please check carefully the ingredients to make sure you’re face won’t flare, get inflamed or be allergic. I love this product, would purchase again and I totally recommend it.
Insane
Revolution make my absolute favourite highlighters but this shade has to be my absolute favourite. I love using it around my eyes as it really makes them stand out. It also adds a lovely pink glow to my cheeks that I’m just obsessed with. My only complaint would be that it broke VERY easily and so a lot of product was lost. Despite this, it has still lasted me absolutely ages so while not ideal not the end of the world.
Perfect for daily wear
This is one of my favourite parts of my daily makeup routine! It creates the most beautiful glow and gets me the most compliments. However, although it may perhaps just be my skin tone I do find that at times it can be quite orange which isn’t ideal so I do currently only use it as a liquid highlighter. Would definitely still recommend!
patchy, lack of shades
this actually EFFED up my skin so bad i had the worst fungal acne after using this. i does give a really pretty glow to the skin but it was far from my shade match (my own fault lol). there simply wasn’t enough shades to chose from. also it expires so quickly and then starts to smell really bad…!!!
Great warm toned highlighter
If you remember the Amrezy x Anastasia highlighter, this gives me that type of glow. The glitter particles are finer, sorta delicate and elegant. My complexion is a warm, yellow-ish skin tone. I typically use products more suited for neutral undertones. If that sounds like you, you should really view this IRL to admire all its beauty.
Elf halo glow
I tried the elf halo glow liquid filter but found that wearing it as a base made my skin look oily rather than glowy. However I think the product would be perfect for under make up or as a highlighter! Overall the product was not bad, just not to my preference.
Rimmel Multitasker
This Rimmel multitasker better than filters primer, highlighter and glow booster is perfect for when you want a skin tint but don’t want to wear heavy makeup. The wand makes application easy and the product has a lovely glow but is not too shiny/ greasy looking.
Best highlighter
Best highlighter I’ve used for glowey makeup, I put over my blush so good !
worth it?
Honestly really wanting to give this product a go but want to make sure it’s worth the hype and price tag.

Amazing glow light foundation
Brilliant light weight foundation from elf that Leaves my skin feeling flawless and with an amazing glow with all blemishes covered, only a little bit needed and blends perfectly with a brush or sponge. Lots of colours available to match to your skin tone
The perfect sparkle✨
Lucky to have got my hands on one of these for free and I can honestly say I'll be buying all 3 shades! the natural glow of this liquid highlighter is shocking and the application tip is so easy to use! I can't wait to see the effect of the other two shades😍
Amazing product
This is a great product which is so easy to use I love using this as a highlighter and eyeshadow topper.The only thing I didn't like too much is it is a very glittery product so rather that an shimmer it can look very glittery if too much is applied.
Love it
The e.l.f. Halo Glow Highlighter is such an amazing product! It gives a soft, natural glow to your skin without being too shiny or sparkly. It blends easily and feels lightweight on the skin. I love how it adds a healthy, radiant look to my face. It’s also affordable, making it a good option for anyone looking for a highlighter on a budget!
