I had never heard of the brand Ultraflesh before, I think it’s a lot more well-known in the US but trying out new brands is so exciting to me. I was sent this very nifty shinebox ($39) which is a small box containing compartments of different highlighters that slide out, making the perfect travel companion.
In the top tray, you have a powder highlighter which reminds me of a muted version of MAC Soft & Gentle mineral skinfinish; a favourite of mine. The powder is of good quality and isn’t chalky, I love it dusted lightly on my cheekbones. You can see from the swatch it’s a lovely, subtle golden colour which is perfect for warming up the skin in Winter.
In the second tray are two cream highlights, you can apply them to the cheekbones for a glow or they would be gorgeous cream shadow bases. They aren’t glittery, they just have a nice classy shimmer to them and would make any eyeshadow look amazing on top, or they’d look beautiful on their own. I used the lighter shade as a brow highlight and that works well too.
In the final tray there are two pencil style highlighters which would make pretty eyeliners, or again, they’d look beautiful as an eyeshadow. The formula is incredibly creamy and they glide on easily. The pigmentation of them is pretty impressive too.

I’m really impressed with this little box, it’s not like a lot of compacts where you get a bunch of cheap products crammed into one, each product is very good quality, lasts long and delivers a nice finish. I’d never have even batted an eyelash at this kind of beauty product before, but I’m definitely going to look more into the brand ultraflesh now. You can find a range of their products at Strawberrynet.

IT’S CHRISTMAS EVE EVE!! That’s a thing ok? How crazy is it that it’s actually Christmas Eve tomorrow..
