    I really like Nars the multiple. I use Cococabana. It does not have a pink tone to it at all. 🙂 It is expensive but lasts for ages and ages.

    Would probably help if we new which one you used that made you look alittle pink.Most illuminators will leave you with a pinky glow-depending on your base skintone and the fact that they are based on that.

    Like bo says it depends on your budget.

    My favourite is Elixir d’Eclat.. ella bache

    I agree with melmeko, I absolutely adore my prestige highlighter! Its so useful, and I also own the bronze one too. Fantastic products. I actually bought the highlighter when I saw the BH Glosscars sticker on it as an impulse buy (I was like ‘what do I use this stuff for? Hmmm… sounds pretty’) and I use both of them every day!
    I bought the All About Glo 24 carat bronzer today (the one with a brush and a little pot on the end) as a bit of a pick me up.. I tried the 18 and 9ct ones on my arm, but them seemed to have more of a pinkish tone to them. I had a bit of trouble operating the brush bit, until I read the C <—–>O properly and realise the reason nothing was coming out, was because it was C-losed lol. It seemed to hold on my skin well, and was a relativity smooth application. It didn’t come out sparkly, or muddy, and even know it was the darkest tone, It still wasn’t too dark – moreso build-able. The only thing I don’t like about it is the brush seems cheap and sheds. But its very portable, so hopefully this one goes well in my handbag!

    It is a beautiful shimmer, I love it on my decolletage also 🙂

    I’ll definately agree with you mel 🙂 I love the Prestige baked highlighting powder. This is fantastic for a highlighter for the cheeks.

    Revlon have a new range out and theres ones with a bronze tone or theres one called brighten. which is really nice. I think they sell at chemist warehouse for a very decent price.

    for a cheapie the australis one is pretty good..its called mineral illuminating wand and its good to chuck in the handbag for touch ups when your skin is looking a little bit dull 🙂

    I actually really like the Bourjois one. It smells like vanillla and is very nice. Pretty sure it might have been just under the twenty mark and I’ve had mine for ages and barely but a dint in it. So well worth the money.

    If you’re after a little glow under your makeup maybe have a look into Rimmel’s skin perfectors. They act as a primer too but even out skin tone and give a nice healthy glow.

    BO- I’ve also spotted the All About Glow one in priceline. They look really good as they have like four colours in the one palette to swirl together.

    Priceline have a new range which is all under $30 called All About Glow. I haven’t tried this range but from the looks of the catalogue it looks really nice. I’ve used Bloom’s illuminator stick which is around the $30 mark. Red Earth’s illuminator is quite nice too however I think that’s around the $40 mark.
