Everyday Minerals’ Champagne blush

This adds a little tiny bit of color, but a WHOLE lot of glow. It's almost a metallic finish!! I tried using this on my cheeks, and just wasn't happy. It made my skin look almost robot-like, as if I was wearing Tin Man makeup or something. I'm far happier using this as a highlighter on my inner eyelid and browbone. It works excellently there, focusing and reflecting the light to brighten either area quite easily. It also doesn't add much color, so for me this is excellent. I have no idea how this would work on deeper skintones, though. It'll provide the same reflectivity, but I don't know if its base note coloring would be more noticeable on deep-toned skin than it does with my own pale coloring.
