Shimmery highlighters are not my thing because I have oily skin and most of the time my face has blemishes. So it definitely is a bad idea to use shimmer on my face except, shimmery eye shadows which I totally love. NYX Face Duo serves me fine to contour and highlight my face, but recently I spotted Miss Claire Illuminator which has an exact packaging like NYX Born To Illuminator, it kind of clicked. I bought it with Miss Claire Lip Creams. Miss Claire Born To Glow is a dupe of NYX Illuminator by the same tag, which is again a dupe of NARS Illuminator. So basically Miss Claire Illuminator is a dupe of NARS illuminator, if Math’s basic principles apply here. Out of the 3, Miss Claire one is the most affordable, but there is no compromise in the quality. About Miss Claire Born To Glow Illuminator Base Miss Claire introduces about 6 shades of Born to Glow illuminator . Ranging from white to tan covering all skin tones. Miss Claire claims that this is a lightweight liquid illuminator that gives skin a refreshed glow and beautiful highlight. The illumintaor contains prominent shimmery particles with dense consistency so that you can achieve desired look by blending it completely or partly. The brand also says that the illuminator can be worn alone or over a base foundation. Price The price of all the Miss Claire products vary depending upon the place you buy it from. There is nothing printed over the packaging about the price, I got it for Rs. 250 but you might get it for cheaper prices if you are in Karol Bagh Delhi from a shop called Impressions. Online websites are no help since it’s priced between 300-600 over there. Ingredients Packaging The packaging of this illuminator though copied yet classy. It comes in a white opaque tube with black twist open cap. Texture & Smell It is a liquid illuminator /highlighter with prominent shimmer not runny yet easily blendable. The shimmer is densely packed in white coloured liquid. I require less than pea size amount to highlight my cheekbones. I prefer really subtle highlight, hence pea size amount is enough for me. But for more prominent highlighting, the product could be layered upon with out any issues in blending since it is in liquid form. The product does not contain any kind of smell. Pigmentation As I mentioned above, the product is densely packed shimmer in liquid form, little amount of product is enough to deliver a subtle glow to the required areas of face. The product can be layered upon as many time as one wants. I find powdery products little hard to layer because they start to encourage the dry spots on my skin, but this liquid highlighter can be layered upon many times without having to worry about dry spots or weird patchy looking face. Application I know you all must be knowing how and where to apply a highlighter. But I am really specific to use a shimmery highlighter. When we are using a shimmery highlighter, it is important to go subtle so that you do not look like a disco ball. Choose the very specific portions of your face. I put this illuminator below my brow bone and at max wear it just above my cheek bones. That’s it. A highlighter should be patted upon and not rubbed on, so that it does not interfere with the base makeup such as foundation or concealer. If you feel like you have applied too much, pat on some compact over it or brush it away using a fan brush. Shade Variants This product comes in 6 shades to cater to all skin types. 01 Sunbeam 02 Gleam 03 Gold 04 Bronze 05 Shiny 06 Shiny White The shade names of Miss Claire Born To Glow range matches to that of the NYX Born To Glow range. This is so close. NYX has only 4 shades in this range but Miss Claire offers 6, that’s an added advantage. Shade – 06 Shiney White As the name of the shade suggests, the shade is white. I picked this shade, since the shop didn’t have any other shades with them. I just wanted to test it. I would have preferred the Gold shade. But it does not really matter if the shade is white since after blending there are only shimmers left. The shimmery particles are not that chunky glitter. There are very fine shimmer that will be noticed on your face after proper blending. Longevity I have oily, acne prone & sensitive skin. I think this is a decently performing product. The shimmer particles stay put for 3-4 hours and later they just disappear when I wear it alone. If I wear this highlighter over primer/ foundation it stays longer. Likes Liquid formula. Useful for subtle to heavy highlighting Can be layered Dupe of NYX Born To Glow Illuminator. Available in 6 shades. Affordable. Nice packaging. Dislikes It is available online but the price is really high than the actual cost. Offline availability is very less. Summary Miss Claire Illuminator range contain really mild shimmer to give your face perfect highlight without making it look like a disco ball. There are 6 shades to choose from and are really affordable if you can locate an offline store. Miss Claire Born To Glow Illuminator Base : ❤❤❤❤ Shade 06 Shiney White : ❤❤❤❤ I hope you guys liked this post. Tell me do you prefer a shimmery highlighter? Take Care, Love.

Miss Claire Mini Haul : A Glimpse

Hi Girls, At a local store yesterday, I wanted to grab a bottle of Maybelline Fit Me foundation but the SA lured me into buying some Miss Claire products. Miss Claire is quite a popular brand among bloggers since it brings out dupe for NYX products mostly. I have used some lip creams before, from Miss Claire, today got few more. The lip creams from Miss Claire are no doubt one of the best product from the brand. I was so amazed to see the wide range of the shades at the local store. Plus they are so affordable, I felt like grabbing whatever I my small eyes could see. I got 5 shades from Miss Claire Lip Cream Range – 02,13, 28, 39 & 41. Sadly the store did not have any testers, so I just picked up judging the packaging. I also got Miss Claire Born To Glow Illuminator, which comes in almost exact packaging as NYX Illuminator. I was also shocked to see that it was titled as ‘Born To Glow’ same as the NYX Born To Glow Illuminator. The illuminator also comes in many shades as the NYX illuminator. Miss Claire seems to be following NYX very closely, I guess. There were too many blushes, eye shadows, and what not at the store. I also got blue shimmer dust since blue glitter was not available. Only I know, how I pushed myself away from the blushes. I might be visiting that local store again soon. This Miss Claire Lip Balm is favourite of my sister. She was constantly looking for it around her place but was not available. Glad I found it. Though she uses the strawberry flavour, but efficacy would be the same, I am sure. I also got Lotus Ecostay Primer & Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in 128. Will let you know how the primer fared on my skin since I will be using it for the very first time. Coming to skin care items, I got Himalaya Natural Glow Fairness Cream which is doing very well on my skin after horrible breakout from The Face Shop White Seed Moisture Cream. For the very first time I got Neutrogena Oil free moisturiser, which is a popular moisturiser among bloggers who have combination to oily skin tone. I have very thin eye brows, so I mostly use an eyebrow pencil to thicken them up. Cameleon eye brow pencil in brown, has a lash brush attached at the end, so eye brow can be groomed with just single product. It was under 100 bucks. Colorbar has same kind of product which is waterproof, but that costs about 650 bucks. Will try to put some swatches of the lip creams pretty soon. Hope you will like the shades I got. Want to check out my other haul posts? Lazy Saturday Ramblings Another Saturday Ramblings I really wonder why I wander on Saturdays 😀 Will let you know, as soon as I get to know. XOXO
