In the world of witchcraft and magic, there are various branches, traditions, and practices. One of the most fundamental aspects of being a witch is understanding and connecting with your basic witch self, your core essence as a practitioner of the craft. To embrace your basic witch, it is important to explore and develop your skills in spellcasting, divination, and rituals. These practices are at the heart of witchcraft and allow you to tap into the natural energies and forces that exist all around us. Spellcasting involves harnessing intention, visualization, and the power of words to manifest your desires. By learning how to construct and perform spells, you can channel your energy and manifest positive changes in your life.
The whole point of highlighter, as far as I know, is to create brightness and reflectiveness on the high points of one's face. Naturally, you'd choose a highlighter that's lighter than your skin tone to achieve this. Since no one's skin is darker than the literal absence of color, it seems a bit of a stretch to classify Not Your Basic Witch as a highlighter, even though it's packed with shimmer. And it's that very shimmer that also pretty much disqualifies it as a contouring option since, last I checked, shadows aren't supposed to sparkle.
Since no one s skin is darker than the literal absence of color, it seems a bit of a stretch to classify Not Your Basic Witch as a highlighter, even though it s packed with shimmer. Many people do buy makeup around Halloween to achieve a particular look; however, outside of this holiday, I see little use for a such a dark highlighter.
By learning how to construct and perform spells, you can channel your energy and manifest positive changes in your life. Divination, on the other hand, is the practice of gaining insight or knowledge about the future or unknown through various techniques such as tarot reading, scrying, or astrology. Developing your divination skills can help you gain guidance and clarity in your spiritual journey.
This Wet n Wild Highlighter Is Not Your Basic Witch
We are nearing the end of spooky season and soon all of the Halloween-themed products will be gone. Among other products in a recent VoxBox from Influenster, I received a wet n wild MegaGlo Highlighting Powder in the shade “Not Your Basic Witch”.
Wet n Wild “Not Your Basic Witch” MegaGlo Highlighting PowderAs wet n wild’s website states, this shade builds off, “Our fan favorite MegaGlo Highlighter, now with a fright night twist.” Yes, as you can see this is a black “highlighting powder”. There are many color variations for highlighting powders including white, pink and even blue; but a black highlighter? I just do not understand.
“Not Your Basic Witch” is actually a really pretty shade. In fact, I can see many uses for this as an eyeshadow to darken the outer crease or create a beautiful smoky eye. It’s sparkly, almost metallic finish adds more flare than a traditional black shadow, but I personally would never seek out a such a dark highlighter.
It is clear that wet n wild planned the launch of the “Not Your Basic Witch” highlighting powder to coincide with Halloween. Many people do buy makeup around Halloween to achieve a particular look; however, outside of this holiday, I see little use for a such a dark highlighter.
In my opinion, this shade should never have been marketed as a highlighting powder. A highlighter provides contrast and draws light to areas of the face including the cheekbones, eyes, and nose. “Not Your Basic Witch” does quite the opposite. Rather, it acts more like a contour powder if anything. I think a dark highlighting powder defeats the purpose of a highlighter.
Aside from creating a nice smoky eye, I cannot think of many uses for this product. Yes, you could use this to achieve a spooky makeup look, but you probably have a black shade in your inventory that will do the trick. Unless you use black shadows on a regular basis, I recommend saving the five dollars and picking out a different shade of wet n wild’s MegaGlo Highlighting Powders.
Note: I received this complimentary product from Influenster for testing purposes.

Additionally, participating in rituals allows you to connect with the sacred and honor the cycles of nature. By creating and performing rituals, you can establish a deeper connection with yourself, the divine, and the world around you. Furthermore, embracing your basic witch involves studying and understanding the principles and beliefs of witchcraft. Exploring different traditions, such as Wicca, traditional witchcraft, or eclectic witchcraft, can provide you with a solid foundation and help you shape your own path. However, it is important to remember that being a witch is a personal journey, and there is no right or wrong way to practice. Each person's basic witch will be unique, influenced by their individual experiences, interests, and intuition. Embrace your own intuition and trust your instincts as you navigate your path as a witch. Finally, embracing your basic witch also means embracing yourself: your strengths, your flaws, and your individuality. Embrace your authenticity, and don't be afraid to be different or stand out. Embrace your inner power and let it shine through in all that you do. In summary, connecting with your basic witch means exploring and developing your skills in spellcasting, divination, and rituals, understanding the principles of witchcraft, and embracing your own unique path as a practitioner. It is a journey of self-discovery, personal growth, and embracing the power within. So, embrace your basic witch and let your light shine!.

"Not Your Basic Witch" had an interesting concept, but unfortunately, the execution fell flat for me. The pacing was incredibly slow, and the story took forever to get going. The world-building was also lacking, leaving me confused about the magical elements and how they fit into the story. Moreover, the main character lacked depth and development, making it hard to empathize with her journey. While the book had potential, I was ultimately left unimpressed and underwhelmed by the end.
