Helios (High Intensity) (Highlighter) is a light-medium copper with warm, reddish undertones and lighter, warmer gold pearl throughout. It had a lightly metallic, lightly dewy finish after it dried down on my skin. The highlighter yielded opaque color coverage in single layer, which was blendable and easy to work with over bare skin as well as foundation as it wasn't prone to lifting it up.
The texture was creamy, a smidgen tacky but seemed less so than other shades in the range, and moderately emollient. This shade stayed on well for eight hours before fading visibly.
