Clionadh Spark Powder highlighter ($ 15.00 for 0.21 oz.) Has a transparent base with an iridescent sheen that seemed to alternate between warmer pink and cooler lavender with a bright finish. The texture was soft, smooth, and a little powdery, though it didn’t look dry or powdery after applying and fading it on my skin.
It had mostly an opaque, buildable paint cover that was applied evenly and distributed well with a luminosity that didn’t emphasize my skin texture. However, it didn’t seem quite as intense in its color shift as other shades in the range. It carried well for eight and a half hours before it visibly faded.

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.
