Update: it wore nicely! The only issue I can see with this highlighter is that it can be hard to pick up on certain brushes, but otherwise it's a very pretty subtle light cool toned highlighter that gives a natural glow.
I’m year of the dragon and ended up buying the LE translucent powder and the dragon-embossed ginger blush from Laura Mercier bc I really wanted something to commemorate my birth sign! ABH is the only other brand I saw that did a nice dragon motif for this lunar new year!!! I was shocked bc dragons are so cool, I would have thought more brands would be jumping at this opportunity to make something beautiful!
You did it to me again. You showed me a product I didn't even know I wanted ... and the swatches convinced me that I had to have it. That packaging! That embossed dragon! Stunning. Just placed my preorder.
I bought it on Beauty Bay but they lost my order right after it sold out so I just bought it on the ABH site. Finally, an ABH highlighter for very fair, cool toned skin!
I got this the second it launched at Beautybay and had it shipped to the US because I literally thought it was so pretty but thank you for showcasing how hard it is to pick up the product with a brush
Ooooh it kinda looks like Pat McGrath Lunar Glow (I think that’s the name it rubbed off mine. The lightest one) It’s really beautiful I’d like to get my paws on that Mac! edit: The shade is Lunar Allure
that is gorgeous i am so bummed i feel everyone has dropped the ball on year of dragon things looking at how beautiful that year of the tiger mac highlighter is
Sort of similar shade to my Lily Lolo blush duo in Pink, the topper side. Difficult to tell as we have different skin tones I think mine is more pink but I suspect this would swatch pinker on my fairer skin too. It looks darker in the pan but comes out quite light and subtle which I like. To get it to your density, need quite a bit of building. It's pressed mineral so it's not as smooth/wet/pigmented as Anastasia. Got some microglitter in it.
I ordered mine in Europe today. I wanted it to be called pear, but I can life with pearl. As a very light, cool toned person I'm really looking forward to this highlighter. I can't use many LE highlighter...
I think it is a beautiful highlighter, I'm not to the one's writh a color bace they are to much fore me because I'm faith to light. 😊 It looks amazing on you. Big hugs from Denmark 🌹💝🥰
I ran to my labtop when you said it was on pre-sale for the U.S. I didn't even finish your review. I clicked pay so fast. I had been wanting it since I sae it in beauty news.
I'm still so tempted by this and it's so hard to resist. I feel like I have too many highlighters and I mostly just use Bobbi Brown Pink Glow (which I feel like could be kinda similar?) and I'm also on a low-buy, so I'm not sure I can justify buying it. I might still cave at some point, but I'm trying really hard to talk myself out of it (key word being 'trying'). Seeing the pretty swatches isn't helping.
I was sooooo tempted to get this until I realised that the dragon was only embossed on the highlighter and not also a design on the packaging. Love the comparison swatches! Thank you
Yeah I bought the lunar new year LE release from Laura Mercier bc the dragon packaging was so cool! The ginger blush has the dragon embossing and a dragon printed in gold on the outside. The blush is quite sheer, but it works well for my fair skin tone - my only caveat would be wary if you are on the medium-dark side of skin tones.
It's beautiful but too icy for me. I wish they'd made two shades. I might get it for the inner corner and brow bone, it's just stunning. And I could always give it to my best friend, she's very fair but olive.
I appreciate you making this video because I was tempted to buy this but other than the cool packaging and gorgeous embossing, it doesn't really seem worth the price to me and it's not really that different from other pinky highlighters I already own
I want it, I'm a dragon... this will be my year. The Dutch ABH does not have it but the US one ships international. I bite the bullit for the handling, shipping and other costs. I just want it.
If it helps mine lasted like, a week. Blame Kat it was the Hy-Glam and then I had to pay $50 to get Space Cowboy in from Cult Beauty 'cos Mecca has dropped the ball.
I got this a couple of weeks ago off adore beauty and I got a really good deal. 20% off + spend $150 get $50 off so got that and huda Beauty pretty grunge for $100 nzd
I ordered two 🫣 I'm a Dragon 🐉 I want to keep one and use one 😄 I did get free shipping because I purchased 2, I'm just trying to justify the splurge 😁
Ah I’m a dragon and my first baby (due in May) is going to be a dragon and that is the ONLY reason why I want this…pregnancy hormones have me feeling irrational 😂

I ordered this after you talked about it on Beauty News. It arrived today and it is stunning. I’m quite pale and it is the perfect shade.
LOVE your shadow

It's baked gelee so you need a stiffer synthetic brush or a denser natural hair. Fluffy brushes won't work
Pink highlights are my fav.
Its so pretty. Also noticed Adore has the Bobbi Brown individual baked eyeshadows in special New Year packaging.
That looks stunning.
I grabbed this from adore and got it on sale, do not regret its beautiful inside and out 🐉
I love the new ABH highlighter packaging

It looks so pretty.
its a very nice piece of makeup to have for sure.
Thank you!! It’s gorgeous!! You look gorgeous too w/ the red lip & sweater!!!♥️💋
It looks sooo beautiful on your skin!
Thank you ❤️

Mine came from Adore Beauty today. I can't wait to try it out
I love this one! Your review videos are always the best ❤ Do you have Becca Rose Quartz? I’m wondering how that one would compare.
I was also thinking it might be a similar shade!
I wish I waited for this. I got the one that was meant to be the amreezy colour. I prefer an icy highlight
My highlighter arrived from adore beauty today. It's truly beautiful ❤
I got this for the dragon imprint because I'm a dragon baby, but I've taken photos for posterity, and will use it because I want to 😆😁
I ordered mine in Europe today. I wanted it to be called pear, but I can life with pearl. As a very light, cool toned person I'm really looking forward to this highlighter. I can't use many LE highlighter...
I liked pear too haha!
Your makeup looks stunning. I don’t suppose you could list what you used?
I just updated the description box ❤
So tempting!
I think it is a beautiful highlighter, I'm not to the one's writh a color bace they are to much fore me because I'm faith to light. 😊
It looks amazing on you.
Big hugs from Denmark
🌹💝🥰
actually wanted to see how this compares to berlin girl!!
That’s not pink at all, it shifts silvery blue! 😆
It’s closer to Parisian Lights, but I’m not sure if I still have that or decluttered it 🤔
i was actually thinking it looks like Rose Quartz

Yes please…I’ll take one 😊.
I was sooooo tempted to get this until I realised that the dragon was only embossed on the highlighter and not also a design on the packaging.
Love the comparison swatches! Thank you
Yeah that's fair enough! Not being a dragon myself, I don't mind if I wear down the dragon
I must say though your review makes it very tempting for my pale cool toned skin

@@sunkissed7377 it's gorgeous! I'm in Australia though and can't work out how to get it without shipping costing a fortune
Very pretty!

You have convinced me.
The dupe for this in my collection is the Dior 02 Forever Couture luminizer, the pink one.
Exactly!!! I feel the same way ,too
Thank you for this video. Could you please compare this one with Dior Couture Luminaizer 02? Which is better?
I think kaleidos makeup's pink highlighter, start surfer, might be similar.
What is this eyeshadow please? Im completly in love with it

I got mine today from Adore Beauty too, love the timing of that. I'm a Year of the Dragon so I couldn't resist
Love that eyeshadow on you! ❤
I got the MAC year of the tiger one for that reason haha! I just thought this shade would look really natural on my skin, and luckily I was right ✨
I want it, I'm a dragon... this will be my year. The Dutch ABH does not have it but the US one ships international. I bite the bullit for the handling, shipping and other costs. I just want it.
Its sold out at Adore Beauty
Happy Lunar New Year to you and your family! From a Water Dog who loves your content 😊
Thank you! Happy Lunar New Year to you too! My partner is a water dog ❤️❤️
Very pretty
It’s gorgeous!!🤩💗
Can u compare to rare beauty enlighten highlighter please
I don't have that highlighter sorry
Damn, I hate limited editions but now I kinda want this 😅
Damn it. I saw it on adore and I’ve been thinking about it ever since. Guess my no buy lasted until February 😂
Restarting in Feb 🤗
If it helps mine lasted like, a week. Blame Kat it was the Hy-Glam and then I had to pay $50 to get Space Cowboy in from Cult Beauty 'cos Mecca has dropped the ball.
Yes I just said "had to".
MUST.
😆
I had to buy this the moment I saw it on beauty bay ♥
Lovely 😊❤
I’m a sucker for good packaging
Clinique highlighter is the best
I got this a couple of weeks ago off adore beauty and I got a really good deal. 20% off + spend $150 get $50 off so got that and huda Beauty pretty grunge for $100 nzd
Great catch! ❤️
I ordered two 🫣 I'm a Dragon 🐉 I want to keep one and use one 😄 I did get free shipping because I purchased 2, I'm just trying to justify the splurge 😁
Hi Kat, how do you find the shopping and shipping experience to Oz from Adore Beauty? Never shopped with them before.
Adore Beauty is Melbourne based, so I can get my order the next day if I order it early in the day. They are fantastic 👌
I'm in SA, had no issues before.
💜💜💜tfs💜💜💜
Wow it’s already sold out 😢
Ah I’m a dragon and my first baby (due in May) is going to be a dragon and that is the ONLY reason why I want this…pregnancy hormones have me feeling irrational 😂
I did the same for the MAC tiger highlighter (I’m a tiger with a tiger baby) so I get it completely ☺️
I’m a horse and my first borns a horse 😊🐎
