Holly Gold-head

Wet ‘n’ Wild Holly Gold-head MegaGlo Highlighting Gold Bar ($4.99 for 0.22 oz.) is a medium gold with warm, yellow undertones and a frosted sheen. It had excellent pigmentation with a smooth, slightly denser consistency that applied evenly to my cheeks and blended out with little effort. There was a noticeable sheen but wasn’t quite to the level of a truly metallic finish. The highlighter was dense enough not to have any excess product kicked up in the pan, but I had no trouble picking up product using a tapered highlighting brush. It wore well for eight hours on me before fading noticeably.

Comments that do not adhere to our comment policy may be removed. Discussion and debate are highly encouraged but we expect community members to participate respectfully. Please keep discussion on-topic, and if you have general feedback, a product review request, an off-topic question, or need technical support, please contact us!

Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post above for more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn't answered already. Comments alerting us to typos or small errors in the post are appreciated (!) but will typically be removed after errors are fixed (unless a response is needed).

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Medium, Olive, neutral undertones. Combination skin. »

If I saw only the swatches and cheek application, I would have easily imagined this to be a mid to high end highlighter. That’s how good this one looks! 🌟

Fairest, Neutral, slight pink undertones. Dry skin. »

Love the shade and quality of this highlighter. Again too dark for me but the real show stopper here are those earrings. You have the most beautiful earrings, Christine and your fashion sense and shade choice means they just enhance the makeup look you have on. Really beautiful.
