The shimmer is on the sparse side, but the particles are just the right size to add highlights without looking overly gritty. Such a shame, then, that the application is so very patchy.
Like the other Radiance glow powders from BareMinerals, this gives a soft shimmer and a touch of color. This shade won't work quite as well as a highlighter on me, because of the color; but it works nicely as a layer atop my blushes, to either give them a bit...
I don’t usually gravitate toward orange-reds, but thought that since this was a lip tint, it might work. It actually works fairly well! The color ends up being partway between watermelon-nude and red-orange, and semisheer to boot. I get a slight bit of color without the warmer tones that...
Very pale neutral grey that's nearly white. May be just barely too muted to use as a highlighter…but then again, if your coloring is neutral and not too fair, it should work well enough. Pigmentation was about mid-range, which is kind of high for a loose-powder shadow from BareMinerals.
Bright purple - very similar to the TKB Grape Pop and Shimmer Pop colors. The finish is a little closer toward satin, and this color has just a touch more depth…but it's a very spring/summery purple.
This light blue looks “beachy” - like the paint on a house that's near the ocean, and has been weathered and faded but not dulled. The color is softer, but this isn't a semisheer shadow. You'll get solid pigmentation whether you layer this atop a cream base or not. It...
This color hasn't made it back into the BFTE webstore yet. (Then again, I don't remember if it was available right before the closure, either, so…) It's a deeper green sparkle that almost appears to have slight blue undertones to it. I think that one of the greens in Meow's...
Picked this color up during one of Zoya's Earth Day promos (2011, I think???) when I noticed that it looked to be slated for discontinuation. It was still available in early 2014, but as of today…it's not on the site. I prefer richer reds to bright reds, but like them to...
Dark navy with almost-invisible scattered microglitter that's more visible in certain lights. It is the darkest shade in the Girl About Town collection, and it kind of stands out - both because of the color depth, and because of the finish. This reminds me a bit of Zoya's Kotori, but...
I really like this shade - and for the longest time I held off getting this color, thinking that it was a bit odd-looking. (And in the bottle, at the store...it is. Store lights are just not that great.)
