Benefit High Beam Review and Swatches
Written by Elessa, Posted in Benefit, Brand, Product Review, Swatches
Benefit High Beam is a liquid highlighter that melts into the skin and makes it glow.
I personally love it for a quick pick me up. It looks like a nail polish but actually goes on the face. Creates a smooth transition of sheen on the face without looking oily.

Overall Thoughts
I love these and the other Benefit blushes in the same type of packaging. Its easy to travel with and looks amazing on the skin. Since you can apply this with a brush and blend it into your foundation you can’t see where the line begins or ends. Highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for that dewy glow. Its great because it doesn’t leave a powdery finish and lasts all day.
You might like to try Cha Cha if you like this type of applicator.







i love high beam under the brow, on the cupids bow, and on my cheekbones! it gives this “sun goddess” healthy glow that i adore!
ohh I haven’t tried this under the browbone. Thanks!
This is my absolute favorite highlighter and trust me I have A LOT of highlighters lol. I rave about this to anyone who will listen and I’ve even bought it for some of my friends. It’s amazing
hahah I am here to listen. what other highlighters do you love?
I like the way you’ve written and laid out the review- easy to scan through for bits of info like pros and cons! I’m always debating with myself to get the High Beam- now you’ve convinced me I need this haha!
Very pretty. I might have to add this to my collection
omg you need to!!!
Looks amazing! But I’m not available to buy it :[
my blog-new post♥mfashionfreakPlease follow me if you’re not already. I’d love to get more followers! I’ll follow you back.
May purchase it but, I don’t like the packaging
I have been LUSTING after this product for over a year now. I’m thinking I’m just going to get it finally, I don’t know what I’ve been waiting for!! Your video convinced me even more…
You are so beautiful! & this Highlight color is beautiful but im kinda scard to try it….
I love this stuff. Its so pretty. I use it on my brow bone but only if I use matte colors on my lids…..
I am sooo glad you love it!:)
You look so pretty! I love it, I actually got this in the small 3 piece that Sephora was offering since I wanted to try it first.
I love this product! I like the application and yes everyone always thinks it’s nailpolish.
I’m afraid of highlighters, my skin is sort of oily, so it would make my face glow more than necessary. On the skin it looks like the Eyeko cream.
i like the picture you included indicating where to place the highlight i had no idea you can use highlighter on your face to give you a nice glow thanks for sharing i learned something new
I saw your short video clip on this on your channel.
I did wonder what that pretty glow was. I bet you get tons of compliments when you wear that.
i have a love n hate r./ship with this bottle >.< aint benefit fault, coz im not very good putting it on me face, coz sometimes it create an oily shine on moi lol
Have you tried Moonbeam? I see that you’ve listed the “one color” under cons, and was wondering how they stack up against each other
I remember trying Benetint once, long long ago, and wasn’t hugely impressed at the time, but this may be another story all together
I love High Beam. Unfortunately I dropped my brand new bottle and it smashed to bits
High Beam is a fantastic product, I always recommend it to my friends. I used to buy the Benefit High Brow all the time, and while it is still a great product I find I get a lot more use out of the High Beam – and if I do decide to use somethings a little more similar to the High Brow I always find myself reaching from my NYX jumbo eye pencil in Cottage Cheese or Milk.
The price point for High Beam may be a little high, but the product lasts for so long and works so well that it is really worth it.
