This cream belongs to the line "Shine Secret", the main component of which is cloudberry oil and vitamin C. Since cloudberry oil saturates the skin with moisture, fatty acids and trace elements, the cream performs not only a decorative function, but also cares for the skin, moisturizing it in deep layers. Vitamin C has an anti-aging effect on the skin due to its high content of antioxidants.
Additionally, the composition includes wheat germ oil, cocoa seed oil and vegetable glycerin. There are no harmful substances, there is no silicone in the cream.
The cream is applied in two ways:
- Apply a thin layer over the entire surface of the face. Thanks to its soft and delicate texture, it is evenly distributed on the skin, giving it a gentle glow and eliminating signs of fatigue. This method is great if you urgently need to put yourself in order after a hard day at work or a sleepless night;
- Areas on the nose, forehead, chin and cheeks are highlighted. In this case, the layer is taken more dense than with uniform application.
The cream is packaged in a white tube of 30 ml. The packaging is devoid of originality and looks at its cost - about 110-130 rubles. The lid of the tube is flat and round, which allows you to put the cream vertically and easily squeeze out for application. The dispenser of a new package is always covered with foil, so it will not work to test the cream before buying. But for such a price, you can not test it, but take it right away.
It's nice that the manufacturer on each tube indicates the methods of applying the highlighter and indicates the zones that are specially highlighted.
The texture of the cream is watery, but that is why you can use it as a remedy for the whole face, without leaving unblended streaks. Externally, the cream looks normal, shine is not visible on it. When applied, it gives a gentle delicate highlight of the skin. That is, using it as an evening shimmer will not work, but for daytime makeup it is ideal. It can be bought as a replacement for white matte shadows, which create shine on the eyelids and in the corners of the eyes.
It is necessary to wash off the highlighter as usual cosmetics - tonic, micellar water, hydrophilic oil, foam or washing gel. Despite the moisturizing effect, it is not a skin care product and must be removed from the face.
Reviews
According to user reviews, Bielita-Vitex highlighter cream stands out best on a tanned body or dark skin from birth, it is not very suitable for pale-faced ladies as an option for highlighting individual areas.
A huge plus of this tool is that it suits both warm and cold color types. And on olive and peach skin, it looks harmonious, merging with the main tone.
When using, only one drawback was highlighted: too wide a hole for the cream in the tube. Even with light pressure, too much content spills out, which must either be washed off or applied to the face with a second layer. The girls hope that the manufacturer will listen to their feedback and make the dispenser a little smaller.
Some especially creative girls buy two tubes of the product at once and pour it into a small container with a dispenser, for example, from an old foundation (previously washed thoroughly).
Pros and cons
Advantages
The cream is universal, it does not clog pores, so it is suitable for women and girls with problem skin. Even on teenage oily skin, the cream lasts for a day and does not require adjustment or additional application.
Dry skin is moisturized due to the presence of cloudberry oil and vitamin C. Not every highlighter can boast of a moisturizing component, so the advantage of the Belarusian novelty is clearly evident.
If you apply the cream in two or more layers, it does not tighten the skin and does not cause the feeling of a heavy mask on the face. It doesn't feel at all.
Despite its white color, it does not sink into pores and wrinkles, so it is not visible on the face. Can be used as a base for basic or heavy makeup (for example, for photography).The bright smell of the cream in the tube quickly disappears from the skin and does not interfere with the aroma of eau de toilette or body spray.
The highlighter is hypoallergenic and does not irritate even sensitive skin.
Flaws
The cream is applied to dry, cleansed skin and requires quick shading. Drying of the product occurs in about 30 seconds after application and, if you do not have time to carefully distribute it, a clear application boundary may remain.
Girls with dark skin should not use the cream in the first way (completely on the entire face). It significantly whitens the skin. However, the second method (highlighting individual areas) suits them better than the rest.
Not suitable for those who prefer to create a hard sculpt on the face.
How and why to apply?
To create a more colorful sculpture, you need to apply it to certain places:
- to make the eyebrows look neater and clearer, the cream is applied under and above them;
- to make the nose thinner and narrower, you need to apply the cream to the central part along the bridge of the nose;
- to create the necessary contour of the face, the highlighter is applied to the cheekbones (not under them, but directly on them);
- if it is necessary to stretch the oval of the face, then the cream is placed on the chin;
- to give the lips a plumper look, the cream is applied exactly to the recess between the lip and nose;
- highlighter is placed in the corners of the eyes to give expressiveness and a special shine to the look.
Thus, this novelty from the Belarusian manufacturer can rightfully be considered a breakthrough in budget cosmetology.
