Hidden Gem Makeup Product: Highlighter "Quartz" by Makeup by Mario

I was buying this highlighter from Makeup by Mario in the quartz tone, I bought it without thinking how nice it would be. It has a frost with a very small shine, they illuminate very well, it is perfect as an eye shadow or to illuminate high parts of the face.

I do not understand why anyone is talking about this beautiful highlighter, for me it is a hidden gem, I am glad I found it.

... Read moreYou know that feeling when you discover a makeup product that just gets you? That's exactly how I felt about the Makeup by Mario Quartz Highlighter. It's truly a HIDDEN GEM MAKEUP PRODUCT that deserves so much more hype! I was initially drawn to it for its subtle promise, and it completely delivered, becoming a staple in my routine. What makes this Highlighter MARIO stand out is its unique texture. It’s not glittery or chunky; instead, it offers a delicate "frost with a very small shine." This means you get a radiant glow without emphasizing texture or fine lines – almost like a soft-focus lens applied to your skin, giving that coveted "no blur" effect where your skin looks perfected but still real. It melts seamlessly into the skin, making it look like your glow is coming from within, rather than sitting on top. Beyond just illuminating the high points of your face, like your cheekbones or brow bone, I've found this Makeup by Mario Quartz Highlighter to be incredibly versatile. It's truly a multi-tasker! I often sweep a little across my eyelids for a quick, bright-eyed look, especially when I'm not using a full "colorful eyeshadow palette." It adds a touch of sophisticated shimmer that catches the light beautifully. For a really cohesive look, I sometimes pair it with a sheer "essence extreme shine volume lipgloss" to enhance that overall dewy, fresh aesthetic. The subtle glow from the Quartz highlighter perfectly complements glossy lips without competing. If you're someone who loves the effect of products like "hourglass ambient lighting powder" or wants a glow that blends beautifully with an "hourglass ambient soft glow foundation," this highlighter is a fantastic addition. While those products offer a diffused, all-over radiance, the Quartz highlighter provides a more targeted, yet still incredibly natural, pop of light. It's brilliant for layering – apply your foundation, then a touch of Quartz, and perhaps a dusting of ambient powder for an ethereal finish. It’s perfect for elevating an "amateur perfect nude" makeup look, transforming it from simple to stunningly radiant with minimal effort. This truly elevates your natural beauty without looking overdone. Honestly, if you're on the hunt for a highlighter that delivers a sophisticated, long-lasting, and genuinely flattering radiance, you absolutely need to check out the Makeup by Mario Quartz Highlighter. It’s become my secret weapon for looking effortlessly luminous, and I can't recommend this HIDDEN GEM enough!
