  • “The formula is exceptional. So unique”29:30–29:36
  • “It reminds me a little bit of the Chanel kind of cream to powder formula that I love so much. These are very similar and a very very blurring on the cheeks”29:43–29:51

  • “Out of all of them, this is my number one, without a doubt”33:55–33:59
  • “Not just the packaging, just the smoothness, the effect that this has. It's a highlighter that is bright, as you can see here, but there's not as much base to it, so you can see your skin through it”33:59–34:06

  • “It also goes really beautiful over texture or over like wrinkles... it does not emphasize that”34:39–34:47
  • “It's definitely unique. It's a very expensive. Is it worth the money? Absolutely not. Do not buy this thinking that oh, this is going to be the most unique highlighter. But, if you are into Sisley products and you're looking for a very elegant kind of a little bit more golden highlighter, this is beautiful”34:49–34:55
