Sunkissed
Chanel Sunkissed Sheer Healthy Glow Highlighting Fluid ($48.00 for one oz.) is a light-medium, champagne gold with warmer undertones and ultra-fine pearl that gives it a barely-there, luminous sheen when applied to the skin. It was marketed to work all over, mixed in with other products, or patted on the high points of the face/body to highlight, making it an intentionally sheerer formula. It had a more watery consistency.
The coverage was sheer, and while the highlighting effect was subtle, it worked well for more all-over radiance, particularly with foundation, moisturizer, or tinted moisturizer. As a standalone highlighter, it was a little more watery than ideal and worked better over bare skin as it moved around base products slightly. I’d recommend pumping a bit onto the back of one’s hand, then stippling it on top of the foundation, which helped absorb some wateriness and made it easier to work with over products. It dried down for the most part, but it left behind a soft, golden sheen that looked slightly wet but not overly shimmery. The product stayed on well for eight hours before fading a bit, and interestingly enough, the wear time claimed was eight hours (so rare for a face product).
