Beauty Care: Lethal Cosmetics Gravity Pressed Highlighter Review & Swatches

Gravity

Lethal Cosmetics Gravity Magnetic Pressed Highlighter ($18.00 for 0.18 oz.) is a light-medium, yellow gold with moderate, warm undertones and a soft, metallic sheen. It was one of the more metallic shades in the brand’s range, though it stopped short of emphasizing my skin’s natural texture.

It had mostly opaque color coverage, which was buildable to full coverage with a second. The consistency was soft, smooth, and not too firmly nor too loosely-pressed, which made it easy to control how much product was picked up on different brushes. It wore nicely for eight hours before fading visibly.

Formula Overview

$18.00/0.18 oz. - $100.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have a "radiant glow" that is "never glittery" and long-wearing. The pigmentation ranged from semi-opaque to opaque, but all were buildable if desired. The texture was soft, smooth, and blendable without being too firmly nor too loosely-pressed, which made it easy to adjust pressure or use with both feathery and denser brushes to change the application results.

The finish was more luminous and glowing without being overtly shimmery for most shades. I didn't have any issues with the formula emphasizing my skin's natural texture. They lasted around eight hours on me before showing signs of fading.
