Ecliptic is the only cream formula, in a light Rose-Pink colour with warm undertones & a pearly finish. It's quite sheer but easy to build up to achieve the desired look. I tend to use it when I'm in a hurry as it's so quick to apply & rub in for a subtle glow. It's also great to use as a base if you want to "glow" all out with your highlight as you can apply one of the powder shades on top for a more intense look.
It turns out that the shade I thought I'd get the least use out of is actually my most loved, Hemisphere. It's a beautiful Pinky, Lavender shade that provides a pretty, luminous glow & I love it. I've had so many people asking me what highlighter I use because I wear it religiously right now. It's what I'm wearing in the above photo & as you can see my highlight is poppin'!
Subsolar is the pale yellow shade which tends to be quite a typical highlight colour. It's in a silky sheen finish so it adds a nice amount of glow without being overly shimmery. It's actually my least used shade although I know it's really popular with other people, I just find the other shades sit better with my complexion.
The last shade to mention is Equinox, a bright Coppery Peach with metallic finish, similar to that of Hemisphere. The warm golden hues really brighten up my makeup look when I feel like I need a bit of oomph.
I'd say the Solstice palette is absolutely perfect for pale skinned gals like myself & the Cleopatra's Kiss palette is more suited to warmer skin tones. However I still really want to get my hands on it as I'm so impressed with my Solstice palette, each shade is really pigmented & the quality is amazing.

I totally agree. Sleek have the best Highlighters! I have light skin and use the Cleopatra's Kiss Highlighter and I love it, but now I wanna go out and buy Solstice one too.

I've never used a highlighter before, especially after seeing how purple toned some of them are after testing them on my hand, but these look lovely! They may well just be the ones I try out! -carryonbeautiful.com
