Do these jars of Make Up For Ever Star Lit Powder look like something from Ursa Major?
LOL! Seriously, these things are shiny, man! If it was just you on a boat and these Star Lit Powders, you could navigate your way back to land.
SO SHINY.
100% Instagram-friendly highlighter
If there were an official OTT Instagram-friendly highlighter, this would be it. Each of the eight $21 shades has 0.09 ounces of loose, shimmery powder that you can wear wet or dry on your eyes, lips or cheeks.
INTENSE pearl
The shimmer is less like a glitter and more like an intense pearl. As highlighters, these are a little too bada-bing-bada-bang for me, but I like them as lid colors, because when you get them right up next to a satin or a matte in the crease, the high-shine POPS! — and if you have hooded, or slightly hooded, lids like I do, it makes your crease look deeper, like it’s comin’ right atcha.
Tricky jars
Be careful with the packaging, though. It’s a little tricky…
Make Up For Ever thoughtfully narrowed the mouth of the jar, which prevents powder from spilling all over the place when you open it, but if you set the jars upside down, the powder comes out in a narrow column, and it’s hard to siphon it back into the jar.
Yup, learned that one the hard way, LOL!

I prefer to wear them on my lids too, they are super pretty!

#13 looks super prettyful.
Shame about the packaging…. However, if they’re so beautiful, I’d say worth trying out!
These Starlit Powders are making a lotta noise on the internet lately and I can see that it is for all the right reasons.
Oh, thanks for the heads up. As someone that throws powders in the drawer without thinking twice I would have totally messed mine up.
These are pretty, but I’m sure I’d make a mess!
You and me both, girl!
