UOMA Beauty Zamunda Glow Up Highlighter Palette Review & Swatches
Zamunda Glow Up
UOMA Beauty Zamunda Glow Up Highlighter Palette ($30.00 for 0.28 oz.) is a new, limited edition highlighting trio that includes three, warm-toned highlighters with more intense, metallic finishes. All three shades were pigmented, easy to work with, and long-wearing, though the middle shade emphasized my skin’s texture as it was quite shimmery/metallic.

Shine Thru
Shine Thru is a deeper peach with warm undertones and flecks of pink and teal reflects that gave it a sparkling, metallic finish on my skin. The texture felt smooth, almost cream-like, as it was incredibly silky without being too firmly-pressed into the pan nor was it thick, so it picked up well with a dry brush.
It had rich color coverage that applied evenly to bare skin and blended out with ease without emphasizing my skin’s natural texture. It stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before fading visibly.

You Glo Girl
You Glo Girl is a deep, coppery bronze with warm undertones and an intense, metallic finish with faint micro-sparkle throughout. It had opaque color payoff in a single layer–a little went a long way–that applied evenly and blended out well. The texture felt almost wet to the touch as it was silky, smooth, and thin (not in a bad way), though it emphasized my skin’s natural texture slightly. It lasted well for eight and a half hours before fading noticeably.

Zamunda Sun
Zamunda Sun is a deeper, more molten gold with strong, warm orange undertones and a bright, metallic finish. The highlighter felt smooth, almost wet, to the touch with a creaminess to it that still handled well with a dry brush and blended out nicely on my skin. It had opaque pigmentation that adhered evenly and wore well for eight and a half hours.

The textures and formulations of the larger eye palette and this face palette have been really stunning and innovative. I hope they come out with more like this!
First of all, I am so happy to see a very high quality, beautiful highlighting palette made especially for deeper, richer skintones! It may be too deep for me, but I am so glad it exists.
Yaaayyy!!! Me too!!!
This is a stunning highlighter/blush palette – with all the shades consistently good quality. I think all the shades are cohesive as well, in that they complement each other too.
This is amazing!! I will have to get this. Very dark-skin friendly!
I’m not even disappointed that this is definitely too dark for me because so few products are and there ought to be as many options unsuitable for me as there are suitable options. (Plus I always have the option to use darker highlights as blush or shadow).
Finally, a damn highlight palette obviously geared toward darker skintones. I’m about as fair as a person can be without being translucent, so this isn’t for me, but I’m happy to see it nonetheless.
