Clionadh Current Powder Highlighter ($ 15.00 for 0.21 oz.) Has a transparent base with an intense, pale aqua sheen that was highly reflective and shiny in its finish. It had a medium to semi-opaque buildable cover that was in line with the marketing of the highlighter formula.
The consistency was soft, a lightly pressed but not powdery smidgen that spread well on my skin. It had a high-gloss finish but didn’t emphasize the natural texture of my skin. It was nine hours before it visibly faded.

Formula overview
$ 12.50 / 0.21 oz. – – $ 59.52 per ounce
There isn’t much that the formula describes other than that there is a “soft, buildable application”. They were usually quite pigmented – semi-opaque to completely opaque – with soft, smoother textures that were neither too tight nor too softly pressed into the pan. For a sheer or more buildable application, I would highly recommend using a lighter hand and a less dense brush to do this.
The texture was usually smooth, slightly dense, and a little thicker than most powder highlighter pens on the market, so often they really needed to be buffed and spread over the skin. The surfaces were often more intense and tended to be metallic. Occasionally they would accentuate the natural texture of my skin when worn at higher coverage levels. Most of them lasted between eight and nine hours with me.
