I am a die-hard Essence fan. However was not too impressed with the highlighter of this product. I felt it wasn't as pigmented as I liked and had to apply a lot of product to get the highlighted glow on my cheek bones. However because of the price I do feel like there is no room to complain. On the flip-side the bronzer worked amazingly and gave a warmness to my skin and did not fade away throughout the day.
