It’s also been a few months since I’m battling depression. It’s not the usual “sadness“. Being diagnosed with type 2 bipolar disorder, I struggle between shifts of mania or depression. It can span from days, to weeks, months, and worse case scenario; years. Enough about that, and more about the make-up. Sorry. See? 🙁
Tara let’s talk about beauty na lang in the meantime.

EB Advance Glow Out Review
Packaging – It comes in a basic white plastic pan, with a transparent cover so you can see the product. It looks and feels flimsy. I’m thinking if they give the case a more matte appearance it would look classier.
Coverage – This baby’s got coverage indeed. One sweep and you just need to buff it on to glow.
Texture – Fine oh fine. Even comparable to the texture of high-end highlighters. Shimmer so subtle, the glow it gives can range from ethereal to disco depending on how much you layer. No glitter no chunks. Swear.
I’m particular when it comes to this because I hate seeing huge chunks of glitter to what products claim to be as a highlighter. But EB Advance’s Glow Out is like liquid gold baby.
Color – Spotlight is warm light gold.
Scent – Nothing noticeable.
Longevity – A good 3 hrs and it still looks fresh. 4-6 hrs and the oil on my face sets and the “glow” looks more natural, translucent. Staying power is decent.
Final Thoughts
Okay. For 199php, this highlighter is the one to beat. The packaging is flimsy, but the product inside makes up for it. Seriously. EB Advance is one of those local brands that doesn’t just make products for the sake of it. I believe their research and development team take time to make sure the price doesn’t compromise with the quality. Salute.

I’ve been binge watching on some make up videos lately because you know, that time of the year is near and that means more get togethers and parties where I have to look presentable. Lol. I’ll make sure to get one soon!
On a side note, di ka pa ba mag-destash ng make up mo? Lol. IG sale, ye know ???
Anyway, I hope you feel better soon. Sending you hugs and kisses Miss Kaycee!
