Product Information
Full details
Sweed's The Highlighter in Aurora is designed for beauty enthusiasts seeking a radiant, lit-from-within complexion through a versatile, buildable formula. The primary benefit of this highlighter is its ultra-fine pearly pigments that offer a seamless, soft-focus finish on both bare skin and over foundation; however, users should be aware that the sheer initial application requires layering to achieve higher intensity pigment.

FAQs
Can I use this highlighter on bare skin?
Yes, it is designed to blend seamlessly onto bare skin for a natural, healthy-looking glow.
Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?
While the ultra-fine pigments are generally gentle, we recommend checking the ingredient list if you have known contact dermatitis or specific ingredient sensitivities.
Does it contain glitter?
No, it features ultra-fine pearly pigments rather than coarse glitter for a more refined, skin-like finish.
Can I apply this over powder foundation?
Yes, but ensure you apply it using a gentle pressing motion to avoid disturbing the powder base.
How do I remove the highlighter at the end of the day?
It can be easily removed using your standard facial cleanser or makeup remover.
Does Aurora work for all skin tones?
The Aurora shade is formulated to be versatile and brightening, though results may vary based on skin depth; it generally offers a beautiful, universal sheen.
Troubleshooting
Highlighter looks uneven or patchy.
Ensure your base makeup is fully set or dried, and use a buffing motion to blend the edges of the highlight.
Not enough glow visible on the skin.
Layer the product slowly; it is designed to be buildable, so apply a second thin layer rather than one heavy application.
Product is moving the foundation underneath.
Use a light tapping motion with your ring finger instead of dragging or sweeping the product across the skin.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Ultra-fine pigments prevent a chunky or glittery appearance
- Highly buildable formula allows for customized glow levels
- Blends effortlessly over liquid or powder products

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your highlighter, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the pearly pigments. When applying, ensure your base products are either set with a light dusting of powder or fully dried down if using liquid formulas, as this prevents unwanted smearing. For cleaning, wipe the applicator or your brush regularly to prevent oil build-up from affecting the pigment pickup. The product is compatible with most standard beauty brushes, though natural hair brushes often pick up and deposit these types of pigments most effectively.
