Which higlighter to get: benefit cookie vs dior backstage glow palette

[loahaddian]

Hiii so I wanted to get a new highlighter during the sale. I have a few highlighters in my collection but I feel like i'm constantly looking for a highlighter that is really smooth and has no sparkles but still provides a GLOW. I am going back on forth between these two and don't know which one to choose. I'm also open to hearing other suggestions for super smooth but glowy highlighters. Thanks guys!

Benefit for sure I love it so much

@loahaddian  I would also say the Dior one. Although it’s more pricey, you get more variety and it would last longer. You could also probably even use it as a shimmery eye shadow if you like. I personally use Benefit because I only put highlight on my nose and inner eye corner. I don’t need to go crazy lol

@loahaddian  Add to that, although I love the Benefit one, it is very sparkly. Kinda like glitter.

Thank you for the response! So the dior one would be less sparkly you think? I really want a glowy highlighter that looks like its part of your skin

@loahaddian The Dior one would be better if you want that.

@loahaddian Sephora employee here. I have owned both. 

The benefit highlighter is more blinding than the Dior one. I love the Dior one because you can mix several of the shades together to create a custom highlighter. It isn’t as blinding as the Benefit one.

i was actually thinking about how the dior one is more versatile because you can customize the color! Thank you for your help 🩷
