Marc Jacobs Glowstick Unboxing

Hello my loves!

Today's post is an unboxing of the Marc Jacobs Glowstick thanks to Influenster. I was very ecstatic to receive this voxbox because Marc Jacobs is a brand I always wanted to try out personally (outside of my freelance makeup kit).

I loved how it came in a all black box with white writing to mirror the box packaging of the product really nice. I also appreciated the mini pamphlet that was included on highlighting the face. To see the unboxing, skip ahead to 9:09 in the video below.

This retails for $42 USD and can be purchased on the Marc Jacobs site or Sephora. It comes in a gorgeous sleek white container with 0.49oz

Marc Jacob Says

Instant. Universal. Portable Spotlight.

A portable cream stick illuminator with instant dewy payoff in a first-ever universal shade.  For the first time ever, this highlighter imparts a universal glow that flatters all skin tones. The sheer cream luminizer gives skin a uniquely mist-like radiance as a result of the balanced ratio of pearly gold and silver pigments: Both warm and cool complexions beam with covetable youthful light.

Unlike powder luminizers and highlighters, this fresh-looking cream becomes one with the complexion for a healthy-looking sheen. And, to make Glow Stick even creamier and more touchable than any other cream luminizer, it undergoes a unique process in the lab for its irresistible, silky-soft feeling that never feels wet or sticky.

Marc Jacobs Highlights

Inspired by the fresh, glowy look created for a Marc Jacobs runway show--designed to evoke youthful radiance at an all-night dance party--Marc recreates this glistening sheen with portable, easy to use Glow Stick. For best results, apply Glow Stick with The Shape Contour Brush, blending it into the high parts of the cheekbones, the temples, the bridge of the nose, the cupid’s bow and at the chin. You can also apply Glow Stick directly to skin, blending with The Shape brush, or fingers. Or, apply and blend with fingers where desired for a natural radiant look.

The oval shape of the stick applicator is designed for impeccable one-swipe coverage, fitting perfectly at the tops of cheekbones. And, the palm-shaped case and roll-up dial are travel-ready: Say goodbye to cracked powder compacts. Glow Stick glides on smoothly and effortlessly for the right dose of dewiness anytime, anywhere. Consider it your new portable spotlight.

Uncap Glow Stick and slightly roll up the creamy stick formula. Using a brush, such as The Shape Contour Brush, brush across the surface of the stick then blend into the high parts of the face, such as the tops of cheekbones, the temples, brow bone, bridge of nose, cupid's bow, and chin. You can also apply Glow Stick directly to the face, blending with a brush or fingers if desired.

My Initial Thoughts
I really like this highlighter. It's smooth and glides on like butter. I love that this is one highlighter that's universal since it has both gold and silver pigments in it. It was easy to blend when I wanted to swatch it. It definitely looks gorgeous on the skin. I like that it can also be built up without looking chalky or cakey on the skin. I'm excited to give this a go in my next makeup look and/or tutorial. The glow is going to be serious.

I definitely recommend this product for both makeup artists and personal use.
