I would have to say that highlighting and contouring is my favourite area in makeup artistry. The Ben Nye Banana Luxury Powder has become one of the premier setting powders to get the highlighted Kim Kardashian-esque look. I ordered the Ben Nye powder in the 1.5oz container on makeupmania and as you would have it they were out of stock so there was some wait time... seems like everyone is now on the Ben Nye Bandwagon
Heavily swatched left and lightly blended on right
I have to say its extremely good for setting undereye concealer as it is finely milled and smooth, since it has yellow tint you are not left with the white cast that everyone hates. In comparison to my Black Opal Oil blocking powder which I still use, I would have to say that Black opal is great for all over setting and excellent for mattifying the face but the Ben Nye is better in my opinion for highlighting purposes as it offers more of a brightening effect than the Black Opal.
Are you also a fan of the Ben Nye Banana Powder?

Thanks hun x
DeleteI totally agree, this is the best setting powder that I own for highlighting. I was a bit concerned about looking "ghostly" but it blended in with my skin tone very well. Would like to try Topaz also.
ReplyDeleteYes I would love to try topaz as well.. Thanks for reading
