Glowcomotion is the highlighter from W7 that has really impressed me since I bought the original earlier this year. When I saw they had a new one called Pink it up! I was really excited.
These are so affordable and if you haven’t already seen it, the original is a dupe for the Mary Lou Manizer.
I really enjoyed the fact you could get this at a fraction of the price.
Here is the lowdown:
Packaging
They are very average packaging, slightly bulky, plastic BUT they do have a mirror which I am well impressed with. You also get SO. MUCH. PRODUCT!
Texture
The texture of these is super soft and creamy. I find they give a lovely sheen and no glitter. There is something really quite special about these as they may be budget alternatives to most highlighters, but to me, they feel like high end.
Shades
I have to admit that the colours look nothing like the pan colour but that’s great. The pink would be way too dark for my skin tone at first glance but once sheered out it’s a beautiful silvery shade.
The original one does need a lighter hand for my skin tone, like the Mary Lou Manizer but it’s still workable.
I think these are great shades and I think the pink one is really unique. I don’t have anything like it in my collection at the moment.
Longevity
Like most highlighters these stay on as long as I don’t rub my face and use a setting spray.
Price
These are £6.95 each – less than 7 quid. That to me means you should really at least buy one to try. They are really a great addition to your makeup collection, even if you’re not a fan of budget things normally.
Overall thoughts
I am really impressed by these. I am. They are a cut above the other budget highlighters in my opinion and they really have surprised me by coming out with the lovely pink shade.
Have you tried these?
These look pretty good Leah! For the price they can’t be bad can they! Great review.

These shimmer highlighters sound really lovely. I do love having a bit of a glow and these sure would do that. They seem really well priced too!
Beautiful colours, these! I’ve just got back into wearing cosmetics after a 15-year break – so many new fun things to try!
These look interesting. I have only ever tried a liquid highligher before.
I have heard quite a few good things about these highlighters, but I trust your reviews more than any others! I think the price point is fantastic, especially for the amount you get. I love how glowing they are and as I need a new highlighter, these would be great for my budget. xx
They sound like they are worth a shot! I think the pink one might be too dark for me too, but the other shade looks great
