Too Faced Unicorn Tears Highlighting Stick Review, Photos, Swatches
Unicorn Tears
Too Faced Unicorn Tears Unicorn Highlighting Stick ($28.00 for 0.27 oz.) is a pale beige base with iridescent blue-to-violet shifting pearl. The shift was visible (more so in person) but the overall effect was subtle, as the product was designed to be more buildable and on the less intense side as far as highlighters can go.
The highlighting stick had a lightweight, thin consistency that had a bit of slip but not as much as is ideal for spreading and evening out product on cheeks. The thinness made it harder to apply over foundations without it lifting it up in places, and I had the best application results when I patted the color on without spreading and then using a dampened sponge to soften the edges. The highlighter stayed on well for seven and a half hours on me.

How did no one at Too Faced say, ‘hey, does this maybe look like a sex toy?’
RIGHT?!!! Lmao that was my first thought. Bad thoughts lol
They probably all said that, which is why they released it. TF likes to pretend they’re edgy and cool.
Whenever I hear of a cream face product, especially a highlighter, lifting up or disturbing foundation, I run the opposite direction! As is the case with this particular shade. Sad, because it is rather pretty.
Oh Jarrod, no.
It looks like a frozen dessert poop emoji sex toy with glitter in it.
BUAHAHAHHAAH. I thought the same thing!!!
I can’t with the shape of this product
