Overview

A night out under bright lights is where this NYX Buttermelt highlighter shows up most, giving a light champagne glow on the cheeks and shoulders. The powder is blended with mango, shea and almond butters so it glides more like a cream.

Smooth payoff without fallout is the strength, and the butters stop the powder from looking dry on the skin. The shimmer is high impact with a multi-chrome topper, which is more than a barely-there glow.

Who it's for

Evening makeup and photos suit its high-impact pearls on fair to medium skin. People who prefer a soft, skin-like finish should try a sheerer product.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Buttery glide, blends like cream
  • No fallout claimed
  • Transfer and fade resistant
  • Vegan and cruelty free
Cons
  • Strong shimmer for subtle looks
  • Champagne tone may wash out on deep skin
  • Small pan size

Performance notes

Butters bind the pearl pigments so they spread smoothly and grip the skin, which is what limits fallout. Building in thin layers controls intensity, and the multi-chrome topper shifts in light for extra shine.
