Smashbox Prismatic Petal Petal Metal Highlighter ($39.00 for 0.35 oz.) is a soft, medium copper base with a stronger, orange undertone with pink-to-violet shifting sparkle and pearl. It had larger sparkles in it, and I would consider it a more glittery highlighter so if that isn't something you enjoy, then the finish won't live up to expectations. The duochrome was noticeable in person; I definitely got hints of peachy-copper goodness that shifted to a cooler, fuchsia-pink sheen depending on how the light hit my cheeks. The highlighter had medium coverage, which was more buildable with respect to glow than color.
The texture felt slightly drier to the touch, though it had the same, more densely-packed and firmly-pressed texture of gel-powder highlighters. It worked best with a moderately dense brush (I used a typical, tapered highlighting brush without issue) and patted on, then blended out. It wore well for eight hours on me before fading noticeably but there was slight migration of sparkle over time.
