Rose Twinkle

Lancome Rose Twinkle Glow For it Highlighter Palette ($39.00 for 0.23 oz.) includes three “silky-cushion cream powder[s]” that have a “buildable glow.” The highlighters were more pigmented, but the finish wasn’t nearly as metallic unless more heavily layered, as the shine and shimmer seemed to dissipate as I blended and worked the powder into the skin–it was as if the powder melted on my skin, so while the coverage remained the same, the glow factor could be built up. The texture of the powders was amazing–so silky–and easy to work with.

A heads up, though: the palette is made out of cardboard, which wasn’t a bit unexpected as most of the products I’ve tried from Lancome haven’t been in cardboard packaging.

Rose Twinkle #1

Rose Twinkle #1 is a golden bronze with warmer undertones and a pearly sheen. It appeared metallic when applied more heavily, but when I applied it to my cheeks and blended it out, it was more luminous and shiny. The consistency was incredibly soft and velvety with no powderiness. The formula had opaque coverage, and I think that the glow itself was, indeed, buildable. It wore well for eight hours on me.

Rose Twinkle #2

Rose Twinkle #2 is a medium-dark, rosy copper with warm undertones and a sparkling, metallic sheen. It had semi-opaque pigmentation with a soft, smooth texture that wasn’t powdery but wasn’t too firmly pressed in the pan either. This shade had larger sparkle to its finish, so while it was shiny on the skin (but did not accentuate my skin’s natural texture), there were visible sparkles, which may not be everyone’s preference. The coverage ended up being buildable, but the shine was what changed mostly when I layered the powder on.

Rose Twinkle #3

Rose Twinkle #3 is a soft peach with warm undertones and a pearly sheen. It had good color coverage with a soft, velvety consistency that was almost cream-like as it was so finely-milled. The powder applied evenly on the skin, blended out nicely, and stayed on well for eight hours.
