<p>New for summer, LORAC has released their Light Source Illuminating Highlighter in four shades (reviews to come for all shades).  The formula is supposed to be buildable for both a &#8220;soft, natural sheen&#8221; or &#8220;layered for a high-shine, dramatic effect.&#8221;  <em>Moonlight</em> had medium, buildable coverage that could easily be sheered out or built-up for more intense coverage/shimmer, just as described.  The texture was very smooth, finely-milled, and blendable; it felt denser and more buttery compared to the blushes (which are a little thin).  The shimmer/finish didn&#8217;t emphasize pores or my skin&#8217;s natural texture.  On me, the highlighter wore well for eight and a half hours before fading. </p>
