I've been using this for a couple of years now. When it first came out, it only had 3 or 4 colours to choose from, I think? These pens are great for highlighting. This didn't give me the greatest coverage for concealing dark circles as the formula was too sheer. For me, Highlighting would be a 10/10, concealing would be a 3/10.

This product is truly worth the investment and will last forever. This brightens up my eye lids and under eyes after a hard night out! It also works beautifully under the arch of your eyebrow to create lift and definition.
Tips: Under the arch of the eyebrow, line down to centre of nose to create a more chiselled look (contouring trick), top of cupids bow, eye lids. BLEND BLEND BLEND (ring finger for delicate areas)
I bought this when I bought the Le Tante Touche Eclat foundation. It's amazing. A little goes a long way. It's literally like liquid gold.
You need to make sure that your foundation (or other base coat) has had enough time to set before applying as I found it to rub away what I'd already put on.
The pigmentation is beautiful and if applied correctly it makes your skin look... Ethereal. I love it, if it weren't so expensive it'd be my go-to but for every day use. But since it has the price tag, it's my go-to for special occasions.
I wouldn't buy one of these again, if I was gifted another one then maybe I would keep it. Nice if you want a lovely natural glowing highlight - not shimmery/fake looking or glittery. The brush is lovely on the skin but hard to keep clean just like the flash radiance skin primer. All up nice but not an essential for me.
It gives the most natural glow and doesn't look cakey or patchy, it is the perfect liquid highlight. A little bit goes a long way and you have to make sure you don't press the button too many times or you're left with a lot of wasted product in the brush. It is awesome for your under-eyes also.
I didn't purchase this myself, I won it in a contest. I only ever use this for special occasions because I never want it to run out! I doubt i'll repurchase this again because I can't justify paying that price for something that I could probably find a dupe of cheaper if I did more investigating.
This product is beautiful! It is luxurious easy to apply, a little goes a long way and it does truly brighten your skin. It comes in different tones so you can match it to your skin winter or summer. It doesn't give a strong concealment but it reflects the light from flaws being covered. Fantastic
Tips: I used it as a highlighter on my brow bone and top of cheek bone too!
I've only just run out of this :( it lasted me about 6 months, using it at least 3 times a week. I bought it in shade 02. I'd apply it after my foundation, over my upper cheek bones, down the centre of my nose, cupids bow and a dot on my chin. It gives the face so much dimension and makes you look wonderful! It's perfect for the Kim Kardashian look too.
It's a wee pit pricey but i think it's definitely worth it. Be careful not to set it with a pigmented powder as it'll take away from it's illuminating power.
Tips: Since i've run out i've used my Milani HD Advanced Concealer in 01 and i'd definitely say it's a dupe. It looks identical, packaging and everything! And it only cost about $10.
It does a good job of covering my under eye darkness, and highlighting, but you really do not need a lot of product, just a little for a day look. A bit pricey, but definitely worth it :)
Great highlighter and cover up for under the eyes, top of nose and cupids bow. I personally think it is too expensive for me to purchase, there are drugstore products that work similarly. But overall the product works and has great packaging
This is an easy to use, does what it says, amazing must have. I actually love most ysl make up and I adore this. Its really good at diffusing dark circles and making you look like you've been to bed when you maybe haven't ;) Love it
Tips: Go easy. it takes a light touch and a soft dabbing motion to blend
