    There are certain things you grow out of when you reach adulthood. A fascination with Silly Putty is not one of them, which is why the internet is all over Stila's bouncy Heaven's Hue Highlighter.

    Almost as fun to apply as it is to wear it, the unique putty texture results in a weightless feel that melts into the skin and ultimately lasts longer than traditional strobing powders.

    The crazy highlighter compound is available in three shades: Kitten, a nude pink; Transcendence, an opalescent pink; and Bronze, a bronzed shimmer. For the best results, the formula should be applied using your fingers or a dense brush that can sop up the liquid silicone.

    While the slime-like highlighter is not new to the market, it recently caught the attention of beauty blogger Laura Lee, who shared a video of herself testing it out. In it, she applies the strobing putty liberally to her nose, cupid's bow, and cheekbones with stunning results.

    See Lee's review of the playful product below and grab your own pretty putty, which fair warning—keeps selling out.
