***Summary***
A collection of 9 short stories at which Salinger excels. Each story introduces us to a new character and gives us an unedited tour of their life. The general theme which threads the stories and characters together is loneliness and yet the book is also full of hope.
***About the Author***
Jerome David Salinger was born in New York on New Years' Day 1919 to a Jewish father and a Scottish/Irish mother. Salinger bounced from school to school, including Military Academy, never staying long enough to complete even a year. He later attended evening writing classes through Columbia University where he studied under Story Magazine editor, Whit Burnett. It was Burnett who first ...
HighBeam is one of the greatest products that i have in my make up bag and i do not know what i would do without it.
HighBeam is a pink highlighter and it is used for all skin tones and you can blend it all over your complexion on it's own or you could mix it in with you moisturiser with a all over subtle glow to your face.
HighBeam is easy to use, if you put it on the top of your cheekbone with the brush applicator that comes with your highbeam and then with your fingertips it hightlights the cheek and gives it a suble glow. It is the finishing touch to my make up and i would never go for a night out without it. It retails at around £15.50 and it is well worth it, mine lasts me around a year so when you average it out it is a bargain.
Definately one to recommend i think this is ideal for anyones make up bag. ...
Advantages: makes a 'dewy' effect, easy to apply. Disadvantages: rubs off make-up underneath, expensive, may not suit all skin tones.
I'm a recent Benefit addict: I pretty much have bought the whole Benefit collection in the past 3 days!
One prouduct that firstly got my attention was 'HighBeam' -- a highlighter which can be applied to the cheekbones, brow bone, or all over the face. Actually it can be applied anywhere! (Well...maybe not EVERYWHERE...lol)
PACKAGING:-
The packaging was fairly plain, just a light pink box with the words 'HighBeam' written in black. It didn't catch my eye in the shop, I'd read about it on a website so I searched for it. I probably wouldn't have noticed it if I'd just walked in the shop and knew nothing about it.
PRICE:-
Highbeam sells for rougly £15 in most stores (I got mine from Debenhams). It is VERY expensive for a item of make-up...I tend to buy stuff by Maybelline which is much cheaper. But I think it's worth it ...
