My first impression of the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish :
This product comes in a black cardboard box. Pretty simple. The product is encased in a hard black plastic container with a see-through lid. It is a compact powder which is really good as it will last longer when you open it up. The highlighter has really pretty veining in it. It doesn't look very pigmented yet.
My review :
So I tried it on one cheek with a medium sized powder brush and on the other cheek I just used my ring finger. In my opinion, this goes on better with your fingers as, because it's a powder, it's easier to control with your fingers. Having said that, if you prefer using brushes it works perfectly fine. The smaller the brush, the better. This highlighter is very, very shimmery so only a tiny bit is needed to get that glowing look. I've been using this product for about two months now and there's hardly even a dent in it! Because it's so shimmery, it works really well when dusted over a cream base pearl on top of the cheekbones. It doesn't really layer well with blush unless you use a liquid one & let it dry before applying the highlighter. It looks really well layered on top of bronzer as it gives your face that healthy natural glow that every celeb is lusting after. It can be worn on the T zone but only if your skin isn't oily because you don't want to draw attention to your oily areas. The lasting power of this product is fab. It lasts throughout the whole day. It can be used as an eyeshadow also and gives your eyes a healthy bright look about them.
The one bad thing about this highlighter is that it does settle into fine lines so if you have a lot of these do not use this product except on your cheeks because it will only accentuate these flaws and nobody wants to draw attention to their flaws! All in all this product definitely lived up to my expectations.
