Hello cuties!!!
I am a complete highlighter addict and always remain in search of new products to help in giving me that ‘lit from within’ or ‘shimmering cheekbones’ look. I am sure you too also remain in search of such products. I got opportunity to try Manna Kadar Glo Illuminator as I received it in a subscription box. To be honest I would have never purchased it as at that time it was a new name for me as well as price too was on higher side. Now its almost 1 year that I am using this product so lets talk about it 🙂
Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Isononyl Isononanoate, Glycerin, Cyclopentasiloxane, Cyclohexasiloxane, Cetearyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Stearate Se, Steareth-20, Mica, Cetearyl Glucoside, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Sorbitan Olivate, Xanthan Gum, Ethylhexylglycerin, Talc, Alumina, Silica, Triethoxycaprylylsilane, Tocopherol, Phenoxyethanol, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, CI 77499, CI 77492), Carmine (CI 75470). Contain Carmine as a Color Additive.
Price: 2100 Rs.
Qt: 20 ml
Shelf life: Not mentioned.
Online availability: Here
Direction of use: You can either use it alone or mix in with the foundation. I found that mixing it into foundation doesn’t help much.
Packaging: This illuminator comes in a squeeze tube, which looks peachy. Basically tube is transparent & it is product’s color which giving it a peachy look. Tube is sleek and easily slips in a purse or clutch. Only thing which is bothering me that this product is tagged at a high price still the packaging is very basic (unlike luxury products) and basic information like shelf life, manufacturing date etc is missing from the packaging.
My opinion about the product: This illumiantor has a lotion like consistency with shimmery particles. You can either use it alone or mix in with the foundation. I found that mixing it into foundation doesn’t help much. So I use a small brush to apply this product into my cheekbones. You can also apply it on your face but I personally don’t as I hate shimmery thing all over my face. However applying on cheekbones gives a soft and subtle glow (shimmering cheekbones) & I look glowy!!!
The formula is very light weight & easily gets blend. A small amount is enough for my cheek bones so this single tube is working for me from last 9-10 months 😉 It’s a warm peachy shade which works for my skin tone but I am afraid that it not gonna suit to each & every skin tones. If any one is using it & reading my blog, please let me know if it suits your skin tone or not. Overall I found it an average product which gives you a dewy effect but nothing exciting (We expect from luxury products). It’s OK to receive it in a subscription box where you pay 400-500 Rs for 4-5 products but paying 2,100 will definitely hurt in heart. He he
