As you can see from the swatches, Sunbeam is a shimmery true gold highlighter and Crescent moon is a shimmery pink champagne highlighter. 

Pigmentation for both are excellent (This is definitely not a subtle highlight, use lightly unless you're going for that "Disco ball sparkle =P"). 

The texture is slightly chalky but still blendable and the lasting power for these are pretty good as well especially if you set it with a makeup setting spray.

Sunbeam is very yellow so i don't think it will be suitable for all skintones but it works well for my yellow based warm skin. Crescent moon is definitely a more universal colour and will suit a broad range of skin tones. It provides the skin with a healthy glow without leaving a white cast.

I like to use this on the tops of my cheekbones, above my cupids bow and along the bridge of my nose to emphasize my features



The Topshop highlighters are definitely a must have in my opinion but remember, a little goes a very long way =)


I hope this was helpful ;)
