WHAT IT DOES
Dust on long-lasting, whisperlight radiance with this 12-hour highlighter powered by Amazonian clay. Available in a range of luminous shades, each brightens & awakens the high points of the face for a buildable glow on all skin tones. With micro-pearlescent flecks to mimic natural light reflection, you’ll get soft strobing effect in a unique, skin-perfecting formula that won’t cling to dry patches, flake or fade.

My Experience with Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Highlighter Exposed:

The packaging of this highlighter is similar to the packaging of Tarte’s Amazonian Clay Blushes – a round plastic compact with a mirror. It’s very sleek and color-coded. It’s the perfect size to just throw in your purse and is perfect for travelling. Since I got the mini size I didn’t get a mirror or an outer box. This highlighter has a beautiful chocolate fragrance, which is just mesmerising.

This shade is a beautiful pale yellowy champagne color with pearly flecks of shimmer. It contains no blinding sparkle or glitter, which makes it all the more wearable and subtle. The shade reminds me of a lighter yellowy version of The Balm Mary-Lou Manizer. I really like the shade and the formula as it gives my complexion a light sheen but doesn’t have a huge shimmery or glittery fallout. I also think this will work across all skin tones.

The formula is very creamy and soft. It is easy to blend and does not enlarge pores like some highlighters can do. The texture is firm and has a slightly moulding clay-like texture that’s firm to the touch. But if you press hard enough you’ll leave an imprint on it. It gives the skin a beautiful sheen and a nice healthy glow. This is a nice highlighter for every day since it’s natural looking but can still be built up to your liking.

I wouldn’t say it wears a solid 12 hour on me as promised by Tarte, but it does stay for a good nine hours, which is pretty impressive. What more should I say! If you like blinding highlighters then this one is not for you. But if you are like me and love natural-looking subtle glow, then this one is a must-have.
