Happy Camper
ColourPop Happy Camper Pressed Powder Highlighter ($8.00 for 0.23 oz.) is a rich, dark bronze with warm, golden pearl and a metallic sheen. The consistency was smooth, cream-like, and extremely blendable on the skin. It had rich, opaque color payoff in a single layer, but it was easy to use less or sheer out the product on the skin for a less intense look. The only downside was that it did seem to emphasize my skin’s texture noticeably. On my normal-to-dry skin, the powder stayed on well for eight hours.

Formula Overview
$12.00/0.21 oz. - $57.14 Per Ounce
The powder highlighter is supposed to have a "high-shine" finish with "high colour intensity." In general, ColourPop's pressed highlighter powders have a smooth, moderately dense texture that was soft enough to be picked up easily by a brush but not kick up any powder in the pan. The formula was semi-opaque to opaque but easily sheered out for less shine and coverage if desired. There were a few shades within the range that emphasized my skin's natural texture slightly but most did not. The wear ranged from seven and a half hours to nine hours.

OMG it made your skin look like an orange peel.
Oh, that’s too bad!
I could see this one being a lovely option for darker skintones! Darker than myself that is, as even though my skin is borderline med.-tan, this one just seems a bit too deep and coppery for me. But, for those in the NW40 range and up: glorious!
Definitely would be a gorgeous color on deep skin!
I JUST added this to my cart! I love this one too ?
I hope you love it when you get it!
The swatch is stunning!!!
It is a beauty!
Gosh, I really think this would be absolutely stunning on deeper skin tones 🙂
I agree, Kalliella!
