Sydney Grace Sun Kissed Peach Highlighter Review & Swatches
Sun Kissed Peach
Sydney Grace Sun Kissed Peach Highlighter ($9.00 for 0.25 oz.) is a bright, light pink-peach base with light, peachy-gold shimmer that gave it a more metallic finish. It had opaque color coverage in a single layer where a little went a long way.
The slightly firmer, denser consistency made it easier to work it as it wasn’t powdery so I had no trouble controlling how much I got on my brush. The highlighter applied evenly to bare skin and blended out readily without emphasizing my skin’s natural texture. It stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before fading a bit.

Formula Overview
$9.00/0.25 oz. - $36.00 Per Ounce
The highlighters are supposed to be "smooth and pigmented" that "blend like a dream" and "last all day long." The majority of the shades in the range are incredibly pigmented with a creaminess to the texture that makes them a cinch to apply and blend out on my skin.
I was most impressed by how soft, almost cream-like the powders were, yet they weren't too loosely-pressed nor were they prone to powderiness. Some of the finishes are very metallic or frosted, so when worn at semi-opaque or higher coverage levels, they can emphasize my skin's natural texture slightly. They have worn between eight and nine hours on me.

I’m seriously in love with this summer perfect shade! I can see myself using it with just bronzer for the ultimate sun-kissed cheeks.
It is beautiful!!
Such a lovely, romantic highlighter shade. I have yet to buy anything from Sydney Grace (I know, I know) but this is very tempting!
Stunning!
That is some shimmer! I think you could be seen from outer space wearing that one. A gorgeous shade of goldy-peach.
I’m adding these to a couple things I bought on Beautylish as gifts for my daughter and granddaughter. They will love these as birthdays coming up.
