Review: Wet n Wild Megaglo Highlighting Powder in Precious Petals

Hi guys! I'm really happy to be able to write and post again. I was busy with making a lightbox for better quality pictures, and I hope I can deliver that.
Today's review is about this highly talked highlighter from the drugstore. It is supposed to be a limited edition spring collection, but they just restocked and I guess it's because of the high demand.
The product name is Wet N Wild Megaglo Highlighting Powder.

This is how the product looks like. The packaging is really simple and quite sturdy. It retails for $3.99 on the official website.

Desciption
  • Velvety-smooth highlighting powder
  • Enhances skin with a naturally luminous glow
  • Infused with shimmering pearl pigments
Ingredients
Boron Nitride, Dimethicone, Octyldodecyl Stearoyl Stearate, Nylon-12, Ethyl Macadamiate, Polysorbate 20, Phytosteryl Macadamiate, Trimethylsiloxysilicate, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Phenoxyethanol, Sorbitan Stearate, Lauroyl Lysine, Caprylyl Glycol, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Hexylene Glycol, Ethylhexylglycerin, o-Cymen-5-ol, Polyacrylamide, Tocopheryl Acetate, C13-14 Isoparaffin, Laureth-7, [+/- (MAY CONTAIN/PEUT CONTENIR): Mica, Titanium Dioxide/CI 77891, Iron Oxides/CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499, Carmine/CI 75470].

The ingredients are listed both on the website and on the back of the packaging, which is nice. The product is sealed with a sticker on the bottom, which said the net weight of the product, which is 0.19 OZ / 5.4 grams.


The product has a really nice floral pattern, which is really pretty. The product itself shines upon reflecting it with light. I was so excited when it came and I could finally get my hands on it, since everybody in youtube was raving about this.


Touching it with my fingers feel so smooth and buttery. This highlighter is adequately pigmented, not too pigmented for a highlighter but still really wet and metallic looking.
I really really like the texture and couldn't get enough just by touching the product. It feels really nice.
It does have some fallouts when brushing the product, but I don't have any problem with cleaning it away.


Here is the swatch on the back of my hand. The right one is not blended away and the left one is blended. Both look really pretty and illuminating.
The colour itself is a champagne gold with a hint of peachiness to it. It is quite glittery and leaves glitter on the skin after cleaning it away. I had to wash my face or my hand to get the glitters off.


And this is the swatch on the face. It looks stunning! I actually have another highlighter that has the same shade from elf, which is the Baked Highlighter in Blush Gems. I didn't really like the pigmentation on that one and to get really good pigmentation, we have to spray it with water, but this one applies really well with brushes, and you don't have to use it wet!

It lasted really well on my skin and didn't look as if my skin is oily. With the price tag of only $3.99, it really is a good deal. I am really happy to have made this purchase and being able to get my hands on them!

So, here are the pros and cons of this product :

Pros
  • really affordable ($3.99 for this good of a product)
  • beautiful sheen
  • excellent pigmentation
  • long-lasting
  • the texture is really smooth and buttery
Cons
  • none
Rate : 5/5
I really like this product and I see myself reaching for this more than my ELF baked highlighter.

Will I repurchase?
Of course! However, I don't think I'll ever run out of this as little goes a long way, and it's a limited edition highlighter.


I really recommend you guys to get it while it lasts, before they run out of stock.

    1. Yes! Apparently they have added more colours and made them permanent. I'm grateful that everybody from different skin tones and the ones who haven't been able to get the products can also get this products haha
