Don’t you love when a brand listens to their customers?! In response to the love for the highlighters from their 2015 release of the Pro Sculpting Duos, MAKE UP FOR EVER has just launched their new Pro Light Fusion Highlighters!

The new Pro Light Fusions come packaged in the usual sleek black compact, although there’s nothing emblazoned on the front to identify what product this is – which is a bit odd since the Pro Bronze Fusion and Pro Sculpting Duos have labels on the front. Regardless, the compact is durable and strong (and I would know… I’ve dropped these guys accidentally a few times…) and has a lovely large mirror inside.

As with their previous iteration, the Pro Light Fusion highlighters are made of a gel-powder, so it has that tougher gelee texture feel to the product if you touch it lightly. Rub your finger a bit on the surface and you’ll feel what I can only describe as a “slick powder”. Some gel-powder formulas can be tough to pick up on a brush, but this is definitely not one of them!

As far as I was aware, the Pro Sculpting Duos didn’t have any names other than 01 (for light skin tones) and 02 (for deeper skin tones). However, repackaged as the Pro Light Fusion highlighters, 01 has become Golden Pink and 02 is Gold (not pictured in this review – please see Samantha Jane’s post on 02 for pictures and swatches).

Gotta say, I can’t see where they’re coming from with the golden pink side of things because I do not see gold whatsoever in that swatch! Pink sure, but definitely not gold!

Since I also own the Pro Sculpting Duo, I wanted to show you the difference in pattern as well as a comparison swatch.

I would venture to say that the new Pro Light Fusion is a slightly more pink, whereas the Pro Sculpting Duo looks slightly more white in comparison. I find the difference is completely negligible on my face.

And here I’m me wearing Pro Light Fusion 01 on top of a red-toned blush (NARS Impudique). I think it’s one of the most effortlessly gorgeous highlighters I own and I’m always astounded at just how well it shows up in both natural and studio lighting.

I notice no difference between the Pro Sculpting Duo and the Pro Light Fusion in terms of texture, appearance and longevity. This is great news for those who loved the original product, but  may not have been so keen on the contouring/bronzing component. This highlighter also builds really well – add more product and you’ll definitely be a beacon of light walking down a sunny street!

Final Thoughts

I think I’ve made it pretty clear that I’m quite a fan of this highlighter! I’ve reached for the Pro Sculpting Duo consistently over the last year that I’ve owned it, and now I’m really, really happy to have the highlighter in its very own single compact. I recommended it in my Sephora VIB 20% Off Sale Video and I stand by that completely. All summed up, the Pro Light Fusion highlighter is astonishingly pretty and it lights up my face. I really can’t ask for more than that!

The MAKE UP FOR EVER Pro Light Fusion highlighters can be purchased on sephora.ca for $48 CAD or on sephora.com for $39 USD.

The product featured in this post was sent to me for consideration.
