I’m always on the lookout for a good highlighter, especially during the warmer months when I love adding a bit of extra glow to my makeup routine. The Benefit Cosmetics Cookie Highlighter really stood out to me, and overall, I’ve been impressed with its performance.
First off, the packaging is adorable—Benefit always nails it when it comes to presentation. It has that signature retro vibe with a fun, feminine twist that looks super cute on a vanity or in your makeup bag.
The formula itself is smooth, buttery, and super easy to blend, which I appreciate. The shade is a beautiful pearly, iridescent champagne with a soft shimmer that catches the light beautifully. It’s quite pigmented, so a little goes a long way. I find it gives a high-impact glow, which makes it perfect for summer events, concerts, or festivals where you want that extra sparkle.
While I absolutely love how luminous it looks, I wouldn’t necessarily reach for it as an everyday highlighter—just because it’s a bit more intense than what I typically wear to the office or for casual outings. That said, it’s still very versatile! I’ve used it not only on my cheekbones, but also to highlight my brow bone, and it really lifts the eyes and ties the whole look together.
Another thing I love is how well it layers over other products—it doesn’t cake or emphasize texture, and it holds up nicely throughout the day with minimal fading.
Overall, if you’re looking for a statement highlighter that adds a radiant, festival-ready glow, this one is definitely worth picking up. It might not be your everyday go-to, but it’s a standout piece in any makeup collection.
