nutrimetics marble rouge in jupiter review, swatches

Not gonna lie, after I dug this out of the goodie bag I stared, confused. What is it? It says rouge, but... so much shimmer. It's too similar to my skin tone, how can I make this work?

Jupiter is a shimmering marble of golds and bronzes, presented in two halves.

Although rouge generally tends to mean blush, I found this works better as a highlighter, dusted on top of cheekbones. As mentioned before... this is shimmery, especially the left side. And even though you all know I like my highlighters borderline metallic, the colour itself is too deep to highlight drastically.


Hmmm...


I found a use for it by dusting it first on the cheekbones, bridge of the nose, chin and forehead, then using what's left on the brush all over, a la Benefit One Hot Minute. That's the glowy ticket. It stayed on my cheeks for about 4 hours last I tested it, but I apply cheek colours while my foundation is still slightly tacky. It's pretty hot as an eyeshadow too...

Left side, right side, swirled together.

I also wore it on my eyes here (see if you can spot it on the lid amongst the smokey blacks)
