I've been searching for THE highlighter for a long time. None of the ones I had at home were right. Or sparkly enough, or gold enough. Or glowy enough.
This is why when I saw Karina at the Melvita event, I had to ask her which highlighter she was wearing. It looked just what I was searching for.
She told me that she has a Dior highlighter but that she swears by (and normally wears) Terra Naturi's baked highlighter, which is supposedly similar. (Thank you, Karina!)
I was shocked. Because yes, I have heard they have some great stuff, but mostly because their plain packaging made me pass by the products everytime I was in Muller.
You see, I'm a sucker for packaging. The prettier, the better!
But first, who is Terra Naturi?
TERRA is the Latin for the earth, the land and the soil. NATURI was originally (develop, to be born) from the Latin, naturae 'derived. It shows that our earth - nature - can offer us anything that can help our skin to magical beauty - and this in a very natural way.TERRA NATURI stands for natural cosmetics whose natural recipes are more than 10 years constantly evolving and improving. All products of TERRA NATURI natural cosmetics are certified by NaTrue or BDIH. This means that all the strict criteria of the certification partner to be respected by the development of products up for sale.TERRA NATURI natural cosmetics developed by well-known, established brand manufacturers and mainly produced in Germany. We rely on the sometimes decades natural cosmetic experience these manufacturers.
It actually reads really great! I guess I should check out their products next time I'm in Muller.
Now to the product - it was all I was hoping for (swatch) in store so off it went with me.
Terra Naturi - Shimmer Powder in 01 Golden Highlight
Terra Naturi Body & Face Shimmer Powder conjures a glamorous delicately shimmering finish. The fine glitter particles boast incredible light reflections and make the skin glow. Skin compatibility dermatologists confirmed.
The packaging is plain, boring, but sturdy.
You get 7g or product for 3.99€ and I swear that if I wasn't directed to their line of products, I'd miss it. I totally would!!
I liked it when I swatched it, but sadly the glistening couldn't be caught on photos since it was a cloudy day.
And on my face.
I apologize in advance for the blotchy foundation, I was experimenting with some darker shades, haha.
I love it! I never realized that I'm not looking for a shimmering foundation, but for a glowing one. I wanted my face to glow or radiate with positive lights (the heck?!). Now I have it and I couldn't be happier!!
The staying power is great, except if I start sweating like a pig. Then I just can't tell apart if it's my oily face or the highlighter. Which is um, good, I guess?
The product is also vegan and has some ingredients from organic sources.
INCI:Mica, Limnanthes Alba (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil, Magnesium Stearate, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Glycerin, Aqua (Water), Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil *, Sodium Levulinate, Glyceryl Caprylate, Sodium Anisate, p-Anisic Acid, Ascorbyl Palmitate, tocopherol, Helianthus annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Tin oxide, silica, CI 77891 (Titanium Dioxide), CI 77491 (Iron oxide)* Ingredients from organic farming.
What do you think? Do you share the excitement with me?

Joooj, zdej ga hočem še jst met! :O
ReplyDeleteJaa, Karino smo že s puncami tudi pred Afroditinem eventom spraševale kateri highlighter uporablja, in ko je rekla Dior, nas je vse minilo. :D Zdej pa vemo za dupe! :P Wooohooo! ;)
:D Dior ja, hahah. :D Meni je povedala za tega in potem še za Dior, ampak če bi mi najprej omenila Dior.. kaj pa vem, če bi bila dovolj desperate bi šla tudi tistega pogledat XD. Tako da HB za cenejši dupe! :D
DeleteNi slab, ampak še mojega probaj :* <3
ReplyDeleteBooom tudi tvojega :D. Me še čaka in me lovi v sanjah. :D <3
DeleteJa Karina je še mene prepričala Vanj, sva ga pred meseci gledali skupi v Mullerju in je takooo leppp. Lepo ti paše in koža se ti je čisto popravila:)
ReplyDeleteLepp jeee!! :D In hvala, koža se mi je res popravila. Končnoooo!!
DeleteJaaaa, jaz sem ga lansko leto odkrila in mi je še vedno eden izmed najljubših. Ravno prav tistega zlatega sijaja ima, da deluje naravno lesketajoče. :)
ReplyDeleteJa, čudovit je. Točno to mi je všeč, da izgleda tako lepo naravno lesketajoč. Beautiful!
DeleteTega imam jaz tudi. Že ene dve leti nazaj sem ga kupila. Najprej je izgledal kot da bo LE, potem pa sem ugotovila, da je v stalni prodaji. Res je fajn. Vsak dizajn je unikat in moj je malo bolj temen zato ga imam raje za poletje :).
ReplyDeleteSem potem videla, da si ga opisala nekaj časa nazaj. Ohhh, kako je lep!! Tvoj je bolj temen? Moj je čisto svetel in misllim, da ga bom skozi nosila. Tudi doma, hahah. :D
DeleteWow zgleda super, zdaj se pa ne morem odločiti med tem in tistim Katjinim :) Mojega so namreč nehali prodajat na ličila.si8 :( jokam
ReplyDeleteUm, Tina. OBA! Jaz grem še po tistega, ko bom en dan imela 6€ viška in bom v Nami ali kakšni Tuš drogeriji. Tisti ima srebrn šaj, tale pa zlat. Itak da rabiš oba :P.
DeleteTerra Naturi nisem kaj dosti namenila pozornosti dokler ni sestra kupila paletko senčk, katera ji je trenuten favorit :) xx Maja
ReplyDeleteJa, a ni takšna anonimna znamka? :D Sicer imajo ene stvari res TOP, ampak le kdo bi si mislil z vso tisto rjavo embalažo :P.
DeleteYaaay! Sem vesela, da ti je vsec. Ravno uceri sem ga mela gor in je bozanski ^^. Lepo ti pase <3.
