Formulated with buzz-worthy, glow-getting ingredients like diamond powder, vitamin B6, rosehip seed oil, green coffee bean, and Julep's trademark Power Cell Complex and Malvaceae Lipid Extract, this Amazon best-seller is basically the Wonder Woman of highlighters. Specifically designed to enhance the look of your skin (and discourage the appearance of wrinkles, pores, and pesky discoloration), the ultimate effect is shimmering, yet subtle. Think: "your skin but better."
Aesthetically speaking, this long-wear highlighter will take your breath away -- both thanks to packaging and the powder's impossibly pearlescent finish. Not for the faint of heart (aka it translates better for dates than daytime), the ultra-pigmented color achieves a "lit-from-within" glow that still manages to feel light and airy on top of the skin. And, thanks to a plush, creamy consistency, it plays well with others -- layering gorgeously over foundation, blush, or bronzer.
As beauty editors, there's nothing we love more than a multi-tasking product that delivers serious bang for your buck. A mere three dollars and chock-full of vitamins A and E, soothing chamomile, caffeine, and energizing green tea, this do-it-all formula can be applied under the eyes or on your cheeks and nose for an added touch of chiseled dimension. Vegan and cruelty-free, buyers on Amazon love the light to medium coverage and how effortlessly it blends with other makeup.
If you happen to be short on time (or cash), this swipe-and-go highlighter from one of our favorite drugstore brands is a one-stop-shop for sparkle, shimmer, and irresistible radiance. The stick offers impeccable precision, while micro-fine pearls amplify skin with an illuminated glow. Highly coveted, the Amazon masses have spoken and between the 250+ reviews, this pick garners an impressive 4.5 star rating. For the ultimate strobing effect, try it on cheekbones, brow bones, the inner corners of your eyes, and down the bridge of your nose.
We all have our preferences when it comes to makeup -- especially where consistency and texture is concerned. This liquid highlighter from Maybelline New York boasts the same aforementioned benefits as its long lost cousin (see previous slide), sans the ultra-precision that comes from a stick. With its light and creamy texture, apply it on top of finished makeup or mix it with your foundation or moisturizer for an added boost of radiance. Time to pick your poison.
