Pillow Talk

OFRA Pillow Talk Highlighter ($16.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a bright, pale pink with subtle, warmer undertones and a metallic sheen. It had rich color payoff in a single layer with a smooth, lightly creamy texture that was dense without being stiff or dry in the pan. The highlighter applied evenly to bare skin and blended out with little work. It had a very strong, metallic finish that was closer to the “blinding” kind of highlight, which seemed in line with what it was supposed to be. I didn’t feel that it emphasized my skin’s texture, but it didn’t smooth it out either so those with more texture may find it still emphasizes theirs. This shade stayed on well for eight and a half hours on me.

Formula Overview

$29.00/0.35 oz. - $82.86 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have a "liquid to baked technology" that has "unparalleled pigment payoff" that can be used as a highlighter as well as an eyeshadow or as a blush topper." It's a very pigmented formula with a high-shine, metallic finish that will be most suitable for someone who wants an intense highlighter.

The texture was denser but not dry or difficult to work with, so it seemed to melt onto the skin the more I buffed and blended the highlighter on. They lasted between eight and nine hours on me before fading noticeably.
