Halo Walkers

Wet ‘n’ Wild Halo Walkers MegaGlo Highlighting Powder ($4.99 for 0.19 oz.) is a light-medium blue with subtle, cool undertones and a sparkling, metallic finish. The texture was a bit looser with larger, chunkier sparkles, which were more visible on the skin (so you’ll want to love yourself some glitter in your highlight!). It had a sparkling, metallic sheen that didn’t emphasize my skin’s natural texture, and it read more icy white (cool, bluish white) than light-medium blue when applied and diffused on my cheekbones–very appropriate for the Ice theme of the launch. It applied fairly evenly and blended out without too much effort, but the formula wasn’t as good as some of the past MegaGlo Highlighters have been. It wore well for eight hours on me before it started to fade noticeably.

Formula Overview

$4.99/0.19 oz. - $26.26 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to be “highly pigmented” with a “silky smooth” texture that is “easy-to-blend.” The shades ranged from semi-opaque to opaque typically with smooth, denser textures that weren't stiff or difficult to work with. A couple of shades seemed a touch drier in the pan but did not appear dry on my skin usually. They blended out nicely and lasted around eight hours on average.
