For the price, I absolutely love this highlighter. The color is so pretty and builds up very well. A little goes a long way and it's a very nice highlighter for day to day use.

Wet n Wild MegaGlo Highlighting Powder, Precious Petals Review

Reviews
Tips: For a pretty day look, I highlight quite a large area of my face (almost like a bronzer) and it gives a nice, warm glow. For a night look, I build the product up on my cheekbones for a strong, shimmery look.
Spray a bit of setting spray first for a more pigmented look.
This is a good option for the those that are cost-conscious. I find that I need to use a lot of the product to get a good glow - this isn’t too much of a problem though because you get a fair amount of product in one container. I also found it’s a very “loose” powder, it doesn’t stick to your skin particularly well. Not a bad option, but you pay for what you get!
Tips: I find it works better using my fingers to blend it in rather than a brush.
I own 2 of these, in the shades Precious Petals and Blossom Glow. Precious Petals is more of a gold colour and Blossom Glow is more pink and I love them both.
They are excellent for a sheer glow, but can be built up with more product. I've found they apply both better with a stiff brush and they blend out smoothly.
They work just as well, if not better, than most high-end highlighters that I've tried. I can't recommend these enough, I think they are so good for the price!
I have this in the shade Blossom Glow, which is a cool-toned light pink. It is lovely! Excellent quality, very pigmented, but not too overly dramatic. It's also great value for money.
I have this in Golden Flower Crown which is a gold almost bronze kind of colour. Normally I prefer a pinker highlighter but I was given this one in a treat box. When I first started using it I thought it was a very subtle shimmer and had to use at least 3 swipes to get any colour on my olive skin for my cheekbones and down my nose. Then I realised I hadn’t been pressing hard enough with my brush and worked out it was a lot more effective with one swipe for each cheek and a firm hand. It’s a lovely golden sheen and will last through to the end of day although the pan might quickly get used up with picking a lot of product up. I think this brand is fairly inexpensive so I’d been keen to try again with different shades once this one is finished.
Tips: Try using it as a all-over shimmer bronzer but with a light dusting only when you just want to warm up your face but not wear a full foundation.
I picked this up on a whim when placing a Farmers order online. I had read good reviews about wet n wild highlighters but not being able to swatch the shade was a worry initially.
Precious petals is a gorgeous peachy/golden shade with shimmery undertones. I have quite pale skin so I was worried it may be too dark but the colour is very buildable and flattering on my porcelain skin. It leaves a lovely glow without being glittery. It is definitely a highlighter most skin types can use. I apply this using the wet n wild fan brush as I find I get a more subtle look.
The plastic packaging isn't what I would consider high-end, the lid marks easily and has already broken at the hinge but considering the size of the pan and the price I can live with this.
This is a really beautiful highlighter and is a steal for $12.99. It has become one of my go to highlighters and I highly recommend this shade.
Tips: Don't use with a wet or slightly damp brush. I accidentally did this and ruined the texture of the highlighter in one part of the pan.
If you're looking for that beautiful glow from the infamous BECCA X Jaclyn hill champagne pop but don't want to fork out a lot of money then this is the one to try. It is highly pigmented and glides on smoothly. I've tested this to see how long it lasts and it stayed on the whole day. Overall highly recommend and will always go for this when I'm going out with friends or special occasion!
This is literally the only highlighter I buy anymore. It's so cheap yet so effective, has a great long lasting shine without being too much. And you could always layer it on more and more if you want to be extra sparkly! Cant recommend it enough if you're looking for a great go-to highlighter. I have quite fair skin so not sure how it would be on darker tones.
Tips: Put some in your inner eye corners for a quick but cute addition to a simple eye look. I do this to brighten up my eyes.
I bought Precious Petals from the WetnWild website (before it was available in NZ) for $USD4.99. When it comes to the packaging you get what you pay for with the plastic compact that is prone to scratches.
In the pan the product appears to be a semi frosty light peach so naturally I started to regret my decision thinking it may prove to be too ashy on me. The texture is smooth with only a bit of kick up when I use a tapered brush.
On my skin it’s a soft warm gold peach with a touch of shimmer which is similar to two other highlighters in my collection; Becca Champagne Pop and Dose of Colors Fuego. It’s not just a great dupe but also the quality is on par with Becca but for a fraction of the cost! The only difference with the WNW highlighter is that it gives off an intense metallic sheen so I would recommend using a fan brush to build up the desired intensity.
This highlighter can emphasise texture on my skin but it doesn’t bother me too much (after all it’s a highlighter not a concealer!). It last 6+ hours over my face paint which is quite good considering I have oily skin. If you’re on a budget and would like to get a ‘high-end quality’ product I recommend buying Precious Petals.
I like this bronzer it went onto my brush very smooth without it crumbling to much. It made a metalick kind of shimmer on my skin. It looked a little bit to dark for my light skin (for me).
All in all a very good bronzer and a nice colour
