<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>Starlight</em> had medium, buildable pigmentation that didn&#8217;t require a lot of layers to intensify, but it was also to apply as a sheerer layer without having to be very, very light-handed.  The powder had a very smooth, silky consistency in the pan, and it wasn&#8217;t too powdery nor was it too firm. It was easy to apply, blend and diffuse along the edges, and the finish didn&#8217;t emphasize pores.  This shade wore for eight and a half hours before breaking down. </p>
