We Tested the Viral "Alix Earle Light" on 2 Different Skin Tones

We've seen countless enthusiastic videos spotlighting the viral "Alix Earle light."

Must Have Must Have Our Editors Put the Viral "Alix Earle Light" to the Test As you know, our editors test a wide variety of products. But for our Vetted franchise, multiple editors with different perspectives come together to test the most-talked-about products and decide if they're *actually* worth buying. Basically, if a group of POPSUGAR editors say something is good, we know we should add it to cart ASAP.   This time, two of our editors are looking at Alix Earle's TikTok-viral selfie light ($26, originally $32). Associate director of commerce content Sarah Wasilak and assistant commerce editor Anvita Reddy each tried the influencer-approved light on their different skin tones and took comparison photos so you can see what their selfies looked like before and after using it. Here's a look at why Anvita and Sarah have deemed this a five-star item and cosigned Earle's light of choice:  On Alix Earle's Newmowa Selfie Light  "I can 100 percent confirm it is worth the hype. This light mimics the effects of studio lighting, but it does not wash me out at all. I immediately noticed a significant difference in the quality of my pictures, especially selfies, because everything looks more crisp and detailed. Initially, I thought my phone camera was on the fritz, but who knew that it was just missing proper lighting?" — Anvita Reddy The Newmowa Light Compared to More Expensive Lights "When I looked at these comparison shots side by side, I was blown away. The photo at left was taken with the Lume Cube Ring Light Pro ($280), which you'd assume to be superior quality given the $250-plus price difference. And while Lume Cube's ring certainly makes for professional lighting, the Newmowa snap just comes off more natural-looking and softer." — Sarah Wasilak READ THE FULL REVIEW These Affordable Press-On Nails Make At-Home Manicures So Easy I Tried a Red-Light Sleep Device, and It's Been a Total Game Changer My Dull Winter Skin Was No Match For Jones Road's New Serum 16 Products to Relieve Stress, According to Wellness Experts and Editors More Shopping Inspiration The Best West Elm Dining Tables For Every Space → The Viral Wig That Not Only Survived, but Thrived During My Marathon Training → Are Copper Peptides the Answer to Plump, Hydrated Skin? → ADVERTISEMENT For more must haves, click here.
