Kaja Beauty Luna Mochi Glow Bouncy Blendable Highlighter Reviews & Swatches

Luna

Kaja Luna Mochi Glow Bouncy Blendable Highlighter ($19.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a light, peachy gold with warm undertones and a natural sheen. It had buildable pigmentation from medium to full with fingertips yielding more semi-opaque coverage in one layer. The texture was smooth to the touch without feeling emollient, and it was malleable if I pressed firmly on it. The product applied well to bare skin and blended out with ease, but I had to use a lighter hand to work with it over foundation to ensure it didn’t lift up my base products. It wore well for eight hours on me before fading noticeably.

Formula Overview

$19.00/0.15 oz. - $126.67 Per Ounce

The formula is a "cream-to-powder highlighter" that "feels like a cream and finishes like a powder." It has "natural-looking radiance" designed to be applied with "fingertips." The highlighters had a smooth, denser consistency in the pot with a light sponginess if pressed firmly. They had subtle slip but felt more powder-like than cream-like, especially as soon as my finger swirled the product once or twice. The product applied well to bare skin and decently over base products, but I found the thinner, quick-dry texture didn't always play well with base products and could lift them up.

They were blendable and had "natural-looking radiance" as described. The pigmentation was more semi-sheer to medium, slightly buildable, while they were described as buildable, so it was mostly accurate. They lasted between seven and eight hours on me.
