Chameleon Chrome Highlighter, Dynamic Color Shift, Liquid-to-Baked Texture, Customizable Luminous Radiance, Cruelty-Free - Venus Swing

I grabbed this highlighter out of curiosity because the color shift looked interesting, and I have to admit I wasn’t expecting much given the price point. Wet n Wild used to be one of those classic “cheap drugstore” brands most of us tried years ago when we first started experimenting with makeup. But wow… they have seriously stepped up their game. This formula genuinely surprised me. The texture is described as liquid-to-baked, and that’s actually a pretty accurate way to describe it. It feels smooth and slightly creamy when you touch it, but it applies like a soft powder. On the skin it blends really easily without looking chalky or dusty. The finish is luminous and reflective without turning into a chunky glitter situation, which is something a lot of budget highlighters struggle with. The color shift effect is subtle but really pretty. When the light hits it you can see the shift, which gives it that multidimensional glow that reminds me of much more expensive highlighters and even some high-end shimmer eyeshadows. What really stood out to me is how well this shows up on different skin tones. On deeper complexions especially, the glow looks stunning instead of ashy, which is something that can happen with lighter highlighters. The tone has enough depth and reflect that it pops beautifully on darker skin while still looking smooth and radiant rather than frosty. It’s also buildable, so you can keep it soft for everyday wear or layer it up if you want that full glowing highlight moment. Another thing I like is how versatile it is. It works well as a cheek highlight, but I’ve also used it lightly on the inner corners of the eyes and on the lids for a quick shimmer look. It has that same reflective quality you’d expect from pricier shimmer shadows, which makes it feel like more than just a one-use product. Honestly the biggest shock here is the value. The quality feels way above the price. If you handed this to me without the packaging, I could easily believe it came from a mid-range or higher-end brand. Wet n Wild has quietly been improving their formulas over the years, and this really shows it. They’re not just the “starter drugstore brand” anymore. At this point they’re absolutely competing with brands that cost a lot more. Pros * Beautiful luminous glow without chunky glitter * Smooth liquid-to-baked texture blends easily * Color shift adds dimension * Looks great across multiple skin tones * Doubles nicely as a shimmer eyeshadow * Extremely affordable for the quality **Cons** Those who prefer a very subtle highlight may find it a bit bold if applied heavily If you love a radiant highlighter but don’t want to spend high-end money, this is a great pick. The finish, color shift, and overall quality feel far more expensive than the price suggests. Wet n Wild really came to play with this one.

Honestly gasped. Was not expecting the pigmentation with just a small dab with my fan brush. I was very light handed and let me tell you a little bit does a VERY long way. And it has staying power, omg. Like doesn't budge. My expectations were a little low given some mixed reviews based on the color shades. I was expecting more glitter than anything which is why I was so surprised. It has a beautiful finish and you don't see the individual grains. I got the shades 'Solar Ember' and 'Too Sirius'. Solar Ember is stunning and so gorgeous. The dual chrome apricot color reminds me of Haus Labs 'Fire Opal' shade but with a little more punch. This is such a beautiful chrome highlighter so hats off to Wet n' Wild. Now as for the other shade, Too Sirius, I see the issue that a reviewer mentioned for this one specifically. It's mostly just glitter and gets everywhere. It's beautiful in the pan but performs like glitter and that doesn't work for me. Maybe as a topper? I don't like chunky glitter on my face so depends on what you like. Definitely looks like 2 very different formulas were used for these 2 colors.

I love this item! I don’t normally like contouring but this product is very easy to work with! Also it is very pretty. To give an idea I have very fair skin.

This product surprised me! I expected it to be a powder, but it actually has a slippery texture. It's not quite a cream and not quite a putty. It's hard to describe. It's similar to the texture (and color) of Fenty Beauty's Diamond Bomb highlighter in the shade How Many Carats?! It has that smooth, slippery texture with a semi-transparent base and white/silver glitter. I have the Fenty highlighter and I swatched it next to this Kind Hearted highlighter and they're quite similar. I actually can't really describe any differences between them. So if you've been wanting the Fenty one and you like glittery highlighters, Kind Hearted would be a good, affordable alternative, in my opinion. Please just be aware that it is glitter as opposed to shimmer or a metallic shine. For me, the only way to apply it successfully is with a finger. I like putting it on my cheekbones, on top of my blush. It has pretty good longevity and I haven't had any trouble with it fading or rubbing off accidentally. The only negative thing I can say about this product is that it's impossible for me to open without using a tool. I have to use tweezers to pry the lid up. I have weak hands and fingernails and my nail will break trying to open it. For this reason I had to rate it four stars instead of five. Other than this issue, the compact is a pretty sturdy plastic, and the Hello Kitty face on the top is cute. One more thing to note: because of the non-powder composition of this highlighter, I think keeping the compact closed when not in use is a good idea so that it doesn't dry out. I haven't had this happen to me yet with products like this, but better to be safe than sorry. So if you like glitter and unique textures, give this highlighter a try! I hope you like it!

This highlight is so pretty. It's a soft pink that catches very nicely! It's not too light and not too intense that it makes you look shiny in the bad way, lol. I imagine if you pair it with a blush that it'd look even more beautiful. Definitely a great highlight.

Love this, performs descripbed!

I love the colour. It’s amazing. I bought it just to use for the corners of my eyes. And if you use just a baby brush to do the inner corners, it works well. I tried it as my eyeshadow all of my stuff my clothes, my uniform, my face my eyeball all had glitter on them. It was like constantly falling off and when the glitter kit in your eyeball is quite irritating and difficult to remove but overall I think it’s great for maybe a costume very lovely holographic glitter white globe make your eyes pop.
