Meilily: Benefit Cosmetics Moon Beam
Meilily Product Photos & Swatches: Benefit Cosmetics Moon Beam Iridescent Complexion Enhancer!
Following on the success of their popular High Beam pink highlighting liquid, Benefit Cosmetics has created a new sister-product called Moon Beam. Moon Beam
is a “golden apricot” illuminating liquid that is similar to High Beam but with pinkish iridescent shimmer instead of silver-pink iridescence.
Moon Beam comes in a glass bottle with a built-in nail polish brush cap. Since it is not a very runny formula, it is probably best blended with fingers or a sponge.
Check out these Benefit Moon Beam Swatches…
Benefit’s Moon Beam Swatch (in natural light)… looks like an opalescent champagne-peach liquid, yet, it blends down more pink.

Van, thanks for the great comment! Glad you found us!
To answer your question, I can at least say that girl meets pearl is a similar liquid highlighter but has a subtle rasberry-floral scent to it and feels slightly cooling, whereas moon and high beam are unscented. Girl meets pearl is also more golden than moon or high beam. Stay tuned- I hope to post some comparison swatches that might help!

hi meilily! thank you for answering – and so fast!!! i was so in doubt between the two of them, i just got them both =))) the only bad thing now is waiting… because i live in brazil and it takes about a month to arrive here… but that’s ok, the waiting is worthy because it feels so good to get home someday and have the little benefit box with these wonders waiting to be opened!!! can’t wait… i can tell you my opinion when they arrive, but anyway i’ll still be looking forward for your post!!! xoxo
