Virgio

Linda Hallberg Cosmetics Virgio Infinity Highlighter ($21.00 for 0.39 oz.) is a soft, yellowy gold with a smooth, metallic sheen. Per the brand, it can be used with a dampened brush for an even more intense, metallic finish, which was apt, but it was fairly intense on its own and was just shy of texture-emphasizing territory on my skin.

The consistency was smooth, lightly emollient with noticeable glide–it almost felt wet to the touch–but was a more densely-packed powder that wasn’t thick or heavy, so it picked up well with a brush, applied evenly, and blended out with ease. It had opaque color coverage in a single layer, which stayed on well for eight hours before fading a bit.

Hi Christine — I see that this is the same shade name as a pan in the Linda Hallberg Infinity Palette. Do have that palette? If so, could you comment on whether or not this individual highlighter is the same in color/texture as the one in the Infinity Palette? I’m interested in this, but wonder if it might be worth it to buy the Infinity Palette. Thanks so much!

According to Linda Hallberg herself it is the same shade as Virgio in her palette. She mentioned it in her launch post on Instagram as being the answer to many people’s requests.

Having said that I do not know if the formula is exactly the same. The single highlighter feels to me to be a tiny tad bit more transparent as to give more glow than base colour. But that could just be my illusion or the fact my palette is older and therefore drier. But colour wise it is totally the same.

I have the Infinity Palette, and the pan sizes are generous. If you’re curious about the other colors in it, it’s definitely worth it. The top row is more warm-toned and the bottom more cool, so it’s really versatile. I reach for it a lot more often than I thought I would. The other highlighter-ish color (they’re all multipurpose) is more silvery, so it’s nice to switch them up.
Since I have the original palette I haven’t bought the separate highlighter, so I can’t comment on any differences between the two.

You accidentally sold me on this, Christine! Champagne Strobe Light was my absolute favorite highlighter (that I shattered) and I gave the palette to someone else. It ended up being like $18.50 plus shipping, and I’m excited to get it in however long Beauty Bay takes to get it to me! It looks like it’ll fill the hole in my collection. I’m not a huge highlighter person either!!

Glad to see such a great review! And thanks for the comments section — without it I wouldn’t have known from a glance that it’s the same shade as in her Infinity Palette which I own and love!
