PURE NUDE HIGHLIGHTER

Essence Pure Nude Highlighter Overview

1. The Finish: Natural Sheen

This highlighter is beloved because it provides a satin, non-glittery sheen, which is often described as a "natural glow" or a "soft spotlight." It catches the light without looking like chunky glitter or an obvious stripe of metallic color on the skin, making it perfect for everyday wear.

2. Texture and Formula

• Baked Powder: It has a baked powder formula, which contributes to its ultra-smooth texture. It's easy to blend and buildable, so you can control the level of radiance.

• "Pure Nude" Shade: The classic shade is often called "Be My Highlight" (Shade 10). It's a champagne-to-peachy beige color.

3. Considerations for Skin Tone

• Lighter Skin Tones: On very fair or light skin, the classic shade can sometimes pull slightly warm or even look like a very subtle bronzer/highlight hybrid (a "blonzer").

• Medium Skin Tones: This is where the product is often considered a perfect "nude" or true natural highlight.

• Deeper Skin Tones: Essence has released other shades and a Pure Nude Sunlighter palette to offer deeper, more golden, or bronze-toned options.

If you are looking for a natural, subtle, and blendable highlighter without glitter, this is frequently recommended as an excellent and inexpensive option.
