Nars albatross can only be described as the perfect powder highlighter for me. In the pan albatross looks like a pale frosty yellow, with barely any shimmer present and when swatched it looks like a chalky white powder. However, once applied to your cheek bones it transforms and becomes a beautiful, light catching, golden shimmery shade, which really defines the cheek bones. Trust me on this one, it's beautiful.
A tiny amount of product is all that's needed and it picks up really well onto a brush, without it going everywhere in a huge powdery mess. Due to this being quite a golden shimmery shade I like to apply this before my powder, so it's not too heavy and sets nicely. Currently I've been wearing this with Nars orgasm, and even though they both contain shimmer, they both look amazing together. I seriously can't fault this product, there are no flecks of glitter and the shimmer is perfect and can be toned down if needed. This also makes the perfect brow bone highlighter and highlights the inner corner of the eye when wearing a shimmery smokey eye beautifully.

This is gorgeous! I love the colour, yellow-based highlighters are the best.
