Can we please call it a chemist or a pharmacy, who calls it a drugstore in Australia?
I go easy with highlighters as they can look so overdone very easily, a little goes a very long way! I haven't purchased one for a long time but have received one in a prize – as part of a Natio Contour kit and its perfect.
I agree with Hayley. We don’t do drugstores here in Australia.
I almost bought the Maybelline one a while back, but I’ll admit that I’m a bit of makeup snob, and fell in love with an alternative at Mecca.
Hourglass Ambient Lighting powders are my ultimate faves. They give off such a natural sheen without any glitter particles.
The covergirl, ulta3 and revlon appeal to me the most, haven't tried any of the ones on this list yet.
I also heard about Sleek and The Balm highlighters are fab
Still looking for a good one, in therms of the shade. On my skin "champagne" is dull and invisible, so boring. Golds are just awful. And so hard to find a good flattering pink cool toned ones
Goes to show that you don’t have to spend too much for a good highlighter
I dont really have a favorite highlighter. Its not something that i use very often at all.
I love the maybelline highlighter.
Yeah it is a very American term, but I guess it has became a bit of a beauty term too, I cant say I have every heard of it called chemist makeup or pharmacy make up.
shows u dont have to spend much
lol I know what you mean – I never hear anyone say drugstore in Australia either. It doesn't sound right but I'm an Aussie.
I'd like to try the Bourjois or the Modelsprefer one.
Still in love with my Nude by Nature palette. Also love the RAWW illuminator.
I've also heard good things about Flower Beauty Shimmer & Strobe Highlighting Palette available at Chemist Warehouse
I love Master Chrome.
I wholeheartedly agree with you! I really dislike the Americanisation of the English language.
I don’t use much highlighter but I like the look of the nude by nature one!
haven’t tried any but will definitely give the ulta3 one a go! Not stocked in chemists but sportsgirl have great highlighters!
Maybelline is my favourite.
Don't use Highlighters at all but they do look lovely for the younger Women some beautiful palettes of colour.
I love how pretty all these highlighters look. I am a sucker for a good highlighter.
I've never used highlighter, I think it makes skin look oily and shiny!
Yes, I like this one too!
The Maybelline Master Chrome highlighter is so good!
The Maybelline Master Chrome is actually very good for the price! Highly recommended
I like it too. It's not too out there, I only apply it with a light hand, but it's buildable if you do want to go OTT.
I just realised, maybe the writer of this article is American or Canadian?
Totally with you ladies! Why do we have to copy their terms, especially when we don't even use it?
These look so good!
DB and Essence look very nice
I'm with you, ladies. I really don't like that term at all.
I have a few highlighters but I rarely use them.
I have no idea how to highlight so not something of interest to me
I love highlighters. My all time Fav is MAC
I have the Maybelline one and love it.
You would love the Fenty. I bought it last year the mini one, is perfect for my skin type.
Love highlighters! I have been tempted by the Maybelline one for so long, I think I need to give in. I recently purchased the Revolution x Soph highlighter palette and am really enjoying that so far.
Love the soft shimmer of highlighters, some great highlighters shown, great brands.
Not something I've ever used and probably won't because it will go out of my mind
I not long brought a Rimmel highlighter on clearance , haven't used it yet , I have no idea what to do with it !
I love using highlighters. Just a little can make a nice difference and beautiful glow
I love highlighter and my favourite is Anastasia Beverly Hills glow palettes.
Essence products are so under rated
Covergirl palette is fab!!
