Rouge Bunny Rouge Goddess (005) Highlighting Powder ($54.00 for 0.42oz.) is described as a “medium, rosy amber with a golden glow.” It’s a medium, golden brown with a golden shimmer-sheen finish. MAC Delicates (LE, $35.50) is darker. Hourglass Radiant Bronze Light (P, $50.00) is darker, warmer. Hourglass Luminous Bronze Light (P, $50.00) is less shimmery, darker. Tarte Park Ave Princess (P, ) is darker. Kevyn Aucoin Tropical Days (P, $48.00) is more shimmery, darker. Too Faced Spice (LE, ) is darker. MAC Delphic (LE, $33.00) is darker, warmer.

A couple of months ago, HauteLook had Rouge Bunny Rouge on sale, which means I pretty much maxed out what I could fit into two orders (this and a bunch of eyeshadows), and this was one of the items I bought. According to the brand, their highlighting powder is supposed to feel “feather-light and creamy” with a “natural, even and radiant look.” The powder had semi-sheer, buildable coverage that could be worn as a veil of color when applied with a more feathery brush (like a fan brush) or semi-sheer to semi-opaque if applied with a more traditional blush brush. It had a soft, blendable consistency that was a little powdery and kicked up excess product unless used with a very soft, feathery brush. On the skin, it didn’t emphasize pores, and the sheen was surprisingly subtle, given how it appeared merely swatched on the arm. I’m light-medium with yellow undertones, so it didn’t add a lot of noticeable color, though it is like a subtler bronzer on my skin tone, and it didn’t have a white base, so it didn’t look chalky. It wore well for eight hours on me before fading.

I love Rouge Bunny Rouge! I’m a huge fan of their liquid highlighters and eyeshadows. Their At Goldcombe Bay bronzer is the only bronzer I’ve tried that I like. I haven’t tried this highlighter but I don’t think that it would suit me. I’m happy to stick to what I have from RBR, although I have my eye on a few more eyeshadows, lipsticks and blushes. So maybe I’m not content to stick with what I have after all. 😀

I love their matte eyeshadows. I have five of them (I think at the moment there are only five but I could be wrong). My most used is Papyrus Canary. It’s a pale cream that I use to soften my crease colour since I just don’t do shimmery brow bone colours anymore. I have my RBR eyeshadows in a Z Palette since I bought the refills.

Have you tried their liquid highlighters?

Can’t believe I missed the Rouge Bunny sale! I always wanted to try their shadows that everyone keeps raving about. The packaging here is cute but kind of bulky. I think this would be a nice highighter/bronzer for someone with medium skintone and yellow undertones

Well, I think it’s a VERY subtle bronzer. Too subtle for me, though. But I noticed that you’re wearing my new favorite fuschia lipstick, Diva-ish, and now I know I need more Fluidlines!

I had try their mascara and blush before,it’s a good products but I’m not that impressed with them to be one of my favorite or anything and with their products are on pricey side plus really dupeable,so I’ll call a pass for this one

It looks lovely on you Christine. I love (from afar) the Rouge Bunny Rouge range. I would love you to review the Chronos Garden eye shadow palette. It has been out for awhile, but it looks so beautiful. I always like to see a review from you before I buy anything.
