We love a beauty multitasker. The right one will shave off minutes in the morning – think: a lip-to-cheek stain or a three-in-one skin-perfecter that primes, highlights and covers. The same can be said for highlighting powders, which are arguably the OG multitasker. We've long seen make-up mavericks and pro artists put the beauty staple to good use in multiple ways, be it to add a touch of brightness to the cupids bow, tip of the nose, inner corners of the eyes or the tops of the cheeks. But there's a new use for it, according to TikTok, and you'll need Fenty Beauty's Diamond Bomb All Over Diamond Veil in order to get it right.
Last week, mega influencer Glamzilla took to TikTok to bring us the only hair hack worth trying for the festive season. In a viral video that has since amassed 1.5 million views and 131.6K likes, Glamzilla forgoes the conventional uses of highlighter and gets experimental by taking a portion of her hair and sliding her Diamond Bomb All Over Diamond Veil down the length of it.
The results? Well, Glamzilla's reaction speaks for itself. She calls it 'holiday hair', before screaming, 'oh my god, oh my god, it's so pretty! It worked, it worked! What the heck? I just created diamond lights in my hair.'
Glamzilla's hair is left, as the product's name would suggest, with a veil of diamond dust. And the effects of it are even more dazzling under a spotlight, as she proves in the video. Fenty Beauty's product is basically a super-finely milled multidimensional glitter, which boats a 3D formula that's lightweight without compromising on next-level shine. But it's the unique jelly-like texture of the powder itself that allows for seamless application on hair in the way Glamzilla instructs. Densely packed and bouncy, the powder is cool to the touch and melts on to any surface it touches without crumbling or scattering everywhere – be it your skin, body or hair.
In fact, if you really want to see if the highlighter is worth its salt, look to @__hananscorner. Last year, the influencer showed us how to use the Diamond Bomb on her hijab during Ramadan to 'step' up her look for Iftar (the meal to break fasting). The results were so good, I had to try it for myself and can confirm the hack is worth the faff.
