Subtitles section Play video Print subtitles What's up everybody, welcome back to my channel. Today, we are doing round two of the highlighter battle. And what the hell does that mean? Well, I'm sure you saw the title. And, by the way, look at me. I look so matte, where is my glow you guys? I feel naked, and also, I'm wearing a bathrobe, and I have no panties on. But anyway, today we are going to be testing out two highlighters. One of them is a drugstore brand, and the price is $4.99. And on the other side we have a $70 highlighter from a luxury brand, and basically in today's video we are going to put them to the test, we're going to battle them out, we're going to see which side of the face glows the hardest. Now, I did do Round 1 before, about four months ago. If you want a catch at that video, it will be in the description box, of course. So, if you want to see a battle, then keep on watching. Now, last year, one of my favorite highlighters ever was from Wet'n'Wild, and they have something called the "Mega Glow Highlighting Powder" and they put out a few Gold shades last year. They were a huge hit, they were probably one of my favorite highlighters of 2016. So, when I saw that they were launching new shades the last few months, I was like, "Oh, okay girl, I need those right this second." And then they had to go and do crazy colors, so not just Gold. We get a beautiful kind of like pinkish color. Of course, we haven't swatched these yet, so I don't know what the real color is, but this shade is called "The Sweetest Bling." Now, both of these highlighters are Limited Edition, they are cruelty-free, and they are only $4.99. The other shade is "Lilac to Reality", that's a cute shade name. And it looks something like this. They both have hearts in the center, and they look really cute. Now, you know when you look at something, you can already tell how they're pigmented? These look pigmented. It has this weird kind of like frosty glow over it, and the heart in the middle is white, I'm sure you can swirl them around and mix them. We are going to test those, of course, and do swatches on my hand, and of course, on my face. Now, we are going to test them against a new Chanel highlighter. This one is also Limited Edition, it comes in a compact with a dark red top on it with the black logo. Now, this is called the "Camilla Day Chanel Illuminating Powder". This retails for $70, girl. I'm like, "You better fucking..." If this shit don't work for this price point, we all know what happened in the first battle, it was awful. So, today we are going to be testing out this guy. Now, Channel does not play games, so this brush comes off like this, and you get basically like a barrier protecting the powder from your hand. So, this comes off like this, and your hand, and then Voila. Ah, that flower though. That flower. The powder looks so stunning. Now, this is more of a Gold-Champaign color, of course these little ones are a little more funky. So today, we are going to just see which one is more blinding. I'm going to use them on my brow bone, up here. Uh, who needs eyebrows, it's 2017. I'm also going to be doing my cupids bow, and the cheeks. So, let's get started. So, before we dive into these on my face, I'm going to read you a little description on their website. You guys know I like to be thorough, and make sure that this does exactly what it says. So, this says, "With the same formula as our must have Mega Glow Highlighting Powder, this duo-tone powder adds a pop of dimension when used together. The silky smooth, highly pigmented formula gives an all over glow when applied to the cheekbones, the browbone, and cupid's bow.” Okay, amazing. Let's take out the color "The Sweetest Bling". It looks something like this. It comes in a little compact that is clear on top, which I like that you can see it. Now, I'm also going to do this little finger swatched on my hand first to see the shade before I kind of mix them together. So I'm just going to take my finger on the metallic pink part, and go like that. Okay, so you can see how the pink kind of went into the white because I touched it, and it feels really soft, it feels very smooth. It doesn't have like a powdery feeling. It feel like… oh sorry, I just saw my finger for the first time. I'm like, "Woo, look at that." That is really blinding on my finger. Let me take this on my hand right here. Oh wow. That is like a beautiful pinky rose gold color. Oh my God. Okay, that is cute. Now, let's grab Lilac to Reality. She looks something like this, and to me, this looks like a purple duo chrome kind of shift. I'm going to take my other clean finger here, and go in. Oh, wow. Woo, it's a little more reflective than the other one. Definitely has like a blue undertone, and we will swatch her right next to this. Bam. It's very like unicorn, has that like mystical type of vibe. Now, the other one looks to be a little more pigmented on my hand. This one, not that it's sheer, but it does look a little less, um... see, it doesn't look less blinding though on the monitor. I'm looking at the camera and I'm like, okay. So, I think I'm going to layer both of these and just try these on this side of my face. So, my left will be the drug store side, and then the right side will be the luxury side. So, I'm going to take the Morphy brush, and I'm just going to swirl this around the heart and in the middle. One, two, three, the brush is pretty coated. Now, let's go in. Oh, that is nice, you guys. Okay, hold on now, let me get a mirror and look up close. Ouh. Ouh. I'm like, that is really really pretty. I'm going to add a little bit more. You guys know I like to cake on the highlight. Now, this Wet'n'Wild highlighter it's really pretty. I didn't expect to like it this quickly on my face but... And with that peachy blush though, oh my God. Okay. I want to take the Lilac to Reality. Same brush. Ouh, okay. Okay, okay. And I'm just going to put this over on the high planes of my cheekbones. Oh wow, girl. Ouh, those mixed though. All right, so first impressions. It is blending out really nice, it's effortless, it's like... the brush is like, living for the powder. I'm like, "Oh my God". Ouh. Oh, wow. That with this liner though, girl. Don't try me. Bitch is shook right now. She's feeling shooketh. Okay, now we're going to hit our cupid's bow, and put a little bit over the lip stick. And this is Sweetest Bling, again. Oh, wow. I think I'm going to do the whole cupid's bow, because it's just going to look a little weird if I don't. So let me just go in. Hmm. Ah, I love it. All right, now, let's take another brush. Of course, I'm going to use a little Anastasia A-23. This is very similar to this, it packs on the highlighter amazing. Now, for the right side of my face, I am going to be trying out the Chanel highlighter. Of course, it looks something like this. I am going to take a clean finger, and I'm going to swatch the middle of it. Oh my God, I hate touching, like... I hate ruining the pattern on like pans. I like, this bothers me. But it looks like this, which is like a very pretty blinding champaign-gold, and I will swatch it next to these. We'll put her right here. The tone is so different than these other ones. Like, I live for it. As you can see, that one is just as blinding. It has tiny tiny little, not pieces of glitter, but like finely mild glitter in the formula. I can see it already on my beauty lights, and it looks really pretty. I'm like "Damn." Let's get our engines ready, and may the best highlighter win. Oh, wow. A lot came off the brush, like immediately, and as you can see in the pan, it like shows the ridges of the brush of where it went. So, let's give it a whirl. Ouh. Oh, wow. Okay. We're going to go in with a little bit more, for her cheekbones. That looks almost wet on camera. I'm like, "Holy, fuck me". Okay, I'm just fenesting it into my cheekbones now. All right, you guys. Let me go in for a closer look. This one is just as blinding as the drug store one, but very similar. It's not like any more blinding, I don't think. It's not like crazy. And I'm also going to take a little bit and dust it down the center of my nose. I love a little blinding nose highlight. Okay, on the nose though, it is like extremely blinding. Like, come on, outer space, how are you? And then, I'm going to do a little bit on my chin, because we're trying to highlight for the cause. My whole face is glowing. I'm going to go downstairs, and Nate is going to be like, "Oh my fucking hell have you been doing up there?" I go in for like an hour. Okay, I have to stop. But, let me zoom in on my face and take a peek at what the hell is going on. Okay, now, this one is just as blinding as the drug store one. Now, of course, this color is a little more, you know, we're going to call it "Normal", if you will, of course. I really love it, it does look like it's wet on camera. It's pretty, it's not powdery at all, it was really lightweight. It applied with ease. I'm kind of shocked right now, you guys. Like, both of them didn't suck. Hi. I wanted to do a little quick test on Nate before I gave my real final thoughts, and make sure that these were blinding enough. This one looks pretty What are we trying again out here? So these are drug store highlighters. Yeah, yeah, Wet'n'Wild. Yeah, live for this. This is on this side of my face, and on my mouth. Yeah, it's really pretty. No, I seen you, your lip was like... Blinding, uh? Glowing when I came into the room. Radioactive. So I'm just gonna try this Lilac one on you to see if it's pretty or not. All right. Now, Nate has no makeup on. Oh, damn. I test a lot of my own highlighters and stuff on Nate, just to see how they wear throughout the day. So, he's used to being the makeup guinea pig. That looks really cool. Okay, now we're going to do these Chanel. Oh, look at how pretty that flower is. Yeah, I like it. I like the stamp. Looks like my hole. All right, now we're going to try the Camelia De... What the fuck is this bullshit called? De Chanel powder Illuminatres. Girl, fuck me. That takes Spanish and French. Okay. Ouh. Work. It's crazy how this one is not looking as like... Blinding, it's not like... Okay, there it goes. See, you need to kind of layer for a second. Yeah. There we go. So, it took a few layers to get Nate to get to blind, blind world. And it's just like, it's like almost my skin tone. so it's like... Yeah it is. Look at... This is the same cheek. You literally don't even like see it, it's just like shinny. I mean, it's definitely there. I think they're both really pretty glowy. Definitely think... Do a little turn this way. Yeah, Wet'n'Wild one is like stunning. I kind of want to take the... It's called The Sweetest Bling. The Sweetest Bling? I think it's such a cute name. It's like a rose gold moment. I'm just gonna put it on top and see what happens. Okay, cute. That is really nice. I want to take a look at it with the flash. A lot of the times you guys, I'll take my iPhone, A lot of the times you guys, I'll take my iPhone, turn on the flash, and then… turn this way. Oh. I mean, that shit is... Woah, it looks so stunning. And then let me see this Chanel one on me. I'm more interested in my brow, boy, I'm sorry. Shit's glowing. All right, babe. Thanks for letting me make sure I knew what the hell I was talking about. Of course, baby. All right, now I'm going to give my real final thoughts. All right guys, I have the giggles. Whenever I'm thinking about Nate, I get so giggly. I'm like… Okay, so my final thoughts on the $4.99 highlighters versus the $70 highlighter are: both of them got the job done. They were both very pretty, they were glowy, they were stunning, they were… I mean, they applied amazing, they were not chalky, they were not powdery. So, at the end of the... I will say this, the $4.99 highlighter just dropped; it looks good bitch. Okay, so I will say this. The Chanel and the Wet'n'Wild are both Jeffree Star approved. Wouh. What does that mean? It means that, of course, a drug store product can be just as good as a luxury brand. Now, I will say this. This Chanel one feels heavier, it did come with a brush, it came with a protective piece, it came in this beautiful compact, which you know, it costs a little bit more money, I'm sure, to manufacture this one, and it comes with a mirror. So you got the mirror, you got the pretty pan, you get the full shebang, as I like to say. Now, the Wet'n'Wild one, it did the job, it was amazing? Is the packaging as crazy as the Chanel one? No. Now, at the end of the day when I leave my house and someone compliments me on my highlighter, or they see this on my cheek, they don't even know what this looked like at home, so, of course, if you don't care about packaging, and you just care about something that works, that is affordable and amazing, the Wet'n'wild one was unreal, and I highly suggest it. If you want to splurge a little bit, and try out something else a little more crazy, of course, be my guest. But, I think they were both amazing, and I'm just really glad that, unlike the first battle, this one had better results. Because last time, Lord, Jesus. Who won the battle? I think that it was a tie, they both won, and they're both amazing so, sadly, there are no losers or winners today. If you guys like these type of videos, let me know in the description box down below, and I will be doing some more battles for you guys. Thank you guys for watching, and I'll see you on the next one. Mhaw! Bye, guys.
