Collection has jumped on the band wagon that every other brand seems to be on at the moment, releasing loose and liquid holographic highlighters. Collection is a super affordable brand that comes out with some great products and so I had high hopes for these!
They’ve launched two different types of highlighters; their Gorgeous Glow Holographic Highlighter Loose Powder, available in three shades, and their Gorgeous Glow Liquid Highlighter Drops which come in two shades.
The loose powder I have is in the shade Moondust. The other two other shades are Pixie (a baby holographic blue) and Aurora (a millennial holographic pink). They’re just £3.99 a pop and come in super slim plastic packaging. These are ok, but these powders do tend to cling to whatever they can. So I would recommend applying these to a very powdered face and in small layers. Then it can be super pretty! But it’s so easy to mess up, that I find them too hard work!
The second part of the collection are the Gorgeous Glow Liquid Highlighter Drops. I have mine in the shade Strobe, but there is also a more champagne/peachy shade called Glow. These are a little more pricey at £5.99. However, I really really hate this! It dries in a matter of seconds and then just clings to the face in a very blue heavy undertone patch that does not look remotely natural. Then you can’t blend it out or cover it in any way!
Overall, I was not really impressed by these. I feel like there are better highlighters out there and Collection has makeup that is far better!
Have you tried these? If so, what were your thoughts?

They do look cool, just shame they’re not as good in person.. 🙁
Good to know that these are not really worth it! Xx
