Now that you’ve read my review and seen the swatches, I’d love to know – would you wear these daring highlight shades? For a natural-looking glow, tap a makeup brushlike A23 Pro Brushon the powder and then sweep over the high points of the face. For an intense glow, gently push the fibers of A23 Pro Brush into the powder and use a stippling motion to apply to the high points of the face—including the tops of the cheeks, bridge and tip of the nose, Cupid's bow, chin, inner corners of the eyes and brow bone. Shades: Pink Heart, Star Mica, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Talc, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Octyldodecanol, Synthetic Wax, Boron Nitride, Caprylyl Glycol, Dimethicone, Ethylhexylglycerin, Magnesium Myristate, Theobroma Grandiflorum Seed Butter, Tin Oxide, May Contain/Peut Contenir: (+/-) Chromium Oxide Greens (Ci 77288), Iron Oxides (Ci 77491, Ci 77492, Ci 77499), Ferric Ferrocyanide (Ci 77510), Manganese Violet (Ci 77742), Titanium Dioxide (Ci 77891) <162372> Needless to say, these highlights are super pigmented and so beautiful! (Could we expect anything less from Anastasia Beverly Hills?) I love how daring the palette is – would you ever expect to apply a metallic green highlight? I wouldn’t have! Until now, that is 🙂 I definitely think I’m going to get a lot of use out of this palette even though the shades are pretty “out there”! I can already tell that the Moonchild Glow Kit is inspiring me to step outside of my comfort zone in regards to makeup, which is honestly amazing. The results are in and *drumroll please* the Moonchild Glow Kit is a hit!Layer the shades in this pink-toned Anastasia Glow Kit® together or wear separately on the face, eyes, lips and body. Highlighters can be applied wet or dry for true versatility in makeup application. Apply the powders dry or wet to build up from a sheer wash of subtle radiance to look-at-me luminosity Purple Horseshoe: Mica, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Talc, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Octyldodecanol, Calcium Aluminum Borosilicate, Boron Nitride, Synthetic Wax, Caprylyl Glycol, Dimethicone, Ethylhexylglycerin, Magnesium Myristate, Silica, Theobroma Grandiflorum Seed Butter, Tin Oxide, May Contain/Peut Contenir: (+/-) Red 40 Lake (Ci 16035), Ultramarines (Ci 77007), Iron Oxide (Ci 77491), Manganese Violet (Ci 77742), Titanium Dioxide (Ci 77891) <162373r1> It’s time to play with makeup again. Anastasia Beverly Hills has a treasure trove of cosmetics to create all kinds of looks. Their collection includes products for eyebrows, eyes, face, and lips, and they also offer various forms of makeup brushes for ease of application.

I’m so amazed at the way these pigments blend on the skin. All the other highlighters I’ve tried in the past have either a chalky or powdery effect. The problem is aggravated when I have a need to pile it on. See, the pigmentation of cheaper highlighters neccesitates putting on a lot more just so the effect can be seen. I don’t exaggerate when I say you already see the glow after a single brush swipe with the Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit. I’ve always preferred cooler tones when it comes to makeup so this 6-shade highlighter palette is perfect. Pink Heart, Star: Mica, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Talc, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Octyldodecanol, Synthetic Wax, Boron Nitride, Caprylyl Glycol, Dimethicone, Ethylhexylglycerin, Magnesium Myristate, Theobroma Grandiflorum Seed Butter, Tin Oxide, May Contain/Peut Contenir: (+/-) Chromium Oxide Greens (Ci 77288), Iron Oxides (Ci 77491, Ci 77492, Ci 77499), Ferric Ferrocyanide (Ci 77510), Manganese Violet (Ci 77742), Titanium Dioxide (Ci 77891) <162372>Blame it on Rupaul’s Drag Race but lately I’ve been really crazy about highlighters. In fact, I bought a whole bunch of Korean highlighters from Althea. The problem is, none of them impressed me. Then Marj asked me if I wanted the Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit in Moonchild. I could just buy her extra palette. I said yes right away. Anastasia Beverly Hills is after all Rupaul’s Drage Race’s official makeup sponsor. Shade: Purple Horseshoe Mica, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Talc, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Octyldodecanol, Calcium Aluminum Borosilicate, Boron Nitride, Synthetic Wax, Caprylyl Glycol, Dimethicone, Ethylhexylglycerin, Magnesium Myristate, Silica, Theobroma Grandiflorum Seed Butter, Tin Oxide, May Contain/Peut Contenir: (+/-) Red 40 Lake (Ci 16035), Ultramarines (Ci 77007), Iron Oxide (Ci 77491), Manganese Violet (Ci 77742), Titanium Dioxide (Ci 77891) <162373r1> The campaign for Moonchild shines a spotlight on men — something Anastasia Beverly Hillslaunchedwith Darkside, its eyeliner. The idea is to highlight strong, male figures wearing makeup while maintaining their masculinity. “There’s this misconception that every male that wears makeup is a drag queen and I think that’s wrong,” Soare said. “Everything about this new product and this campaign represents the acceptance of yourself as being different, the acceptance of your creative self [and] creative freedom, which is a big thing for me.” Anastasia Beverly Hills began with a single, revolutionary technique: the “Golden Ratio” brow-shaping service that Romanian-born aesthetician Anastasia Soare developed for her clients at the Los Angeles salon where she worked. The smashing success of this method allowed Soare to open her own salon in 1997.

Moving on to the colors, Like I mentioned earlier this palette has super unusual colors, the first of its kind (at least from what I have seen till then).As a note, it does contain slightly less product than the 4-pan Glow Kits (which have 1.04 oz. of product) but is not significantly less (the upside is you get more shades, and if you rarely pan your products, it’s a better value to have the additional shades). Using a brush, sweep the powder over cheekbones, nose, and decollete, applying more layers until you reach your perfect level of glow. Use a smaller brush to target the corners of the eyes, eyelids, and other detailed areas. For an amplified glow, apply with a damp brush or sponge. Other Details

These are photos taken 8 hours apart, under natural light. Photo on the left is freshly applied highlighter. Photo on the right is the same highlighter 8 hours after, no retouch. Sometimes makeup becomes very stagnant or very boring,” Soare said. “I wanted to make something that may not necessarily be mainstream…[just because] the line is becoming successful…the line is not moving [from] its core essence of caring about the artists.” Holy cow. I love all of my Anastasia Beverly Hills palettes, but Anastasia Beverly Hills Sultry Eye Shadow Palette is probably my favorite. The shimmer shades are gorgeous, and the matte shades are great with a good base,” one reviewer wrote on Influenster. Ideal for use with Brush #23 (From the Anastasia Beverly hills brush range). For a brightly amplified glow, apply with a damp makeup brush or sponge. Ingredients in Anastasia Moonchild Glow Kit The brand is owned by its founder, Anastasia Soare.

Pros GUMDROP: ETHYLHEXYL PALMITATE, OCTYLDODECANOL, TALC, SYNTHETIC FLUORPHLOGOPITE, BORON NITRIDE, SYNTHETIC WAX, CALCIUM ALUMINUM BOROSILICATE, CAPRYLYL GLYCOL, DIMETHICONE, ETHYLHEXYLGLYCERIN, MAGNESIUM MYRISTATE, THEOBROMA GRANDIFLORUM SEED BUTTER, TIN OXIDE, MAY CONTAIN/PEUT CONTENIR (+/-): RED 40 LAKE (CI 16035), IRON OXIDES (CI 77492, CI 77499), TITANIUM DIOXIDE (CI 77891) This product is a must have for me. It’s great! It also lasts a long time. I load my brow brush and apply it to my bare spots in my brows. Then I take my spoolie attached to my brow brush and blend any harsh lines out. It helps soften the vibrancy of the color in general to look more natural,” one reviewer wrote.
