You can go from mere mortal to full-on unicorn in about 2.5 seconds — or maybe even one second! — with Farsali’s Jelly Beam Illuminator ($40). Farsali is an indie brand best known for their shimmery skin serums and elixirs, and Jelly Beam (it’s a highlighter), which launches November 1st online, is their first official foray into the world of makeup.
Jelly Beam is galloping atop (!) the trend of bold, shiny metallic highlights, with the key difference between this one and every other shimmery gold out there is the jelly texture, which feels like silky whipped cream (so it’s not runny). It’s so cool! It kinda looks like cake batter or jiggly scrambled eggs just before they set.
Remember the MAC Big Bounce shadows a few years ago? Jelly has the same texture.
Pat and/or blend the golden jelly on your skin, give it about 30 seconds to dry to a powder, and Honey, that wet-satin highlight won’t budge for nothing.

Sounds like an interesting consistency. I’m not the biggest highlighter gal though, as I’m an oily mess and have already a “natural glow”. 😉
You had me at “jelly”!!
Seems like an excessive amount of product for me!
I love the description of the texture, but stay away with highlighters like that!
ooooh, I like that shininess!! I think the base color is too light/whitish for me, tho. But I love me teh shine!!!
I’d really have to play with it to see if the color/shine would work for me.
