If you want that dewy, radiant glow, you don't need to drop the big bucks for a shimmery highlighter or highlighting palette. Instead, celebrity makeup artist Allan Avendaño (who dolls up Sarah Hyland and Zendaya), suggests picking up the Sonia Kashuk Chic Luminosity Highlighter Stick. Avendaño told Teen Vogue that this pearlescent highlighter gives a gorgeous translucent glow, that is universally flattering. "Drag the stick directly across your cheekbones and dab it on the inner corners of your eyes," said Avendaño " Then tap it smooth with fingers, a foundation brush or damp sponge." A celebrity-worthy highlight can be yours for just under $11 bucks.

When a celebrity has a red carpet appearance where they'll be showing a little leg, they're usually lathered up with a little body makeup or self-tanner. Celebrity makeup artist (and founder of Fiona Stiles Beauty) Fiona Stiles uses this water-resistant leg makeup to add a nice bronze color to the legs, without staining the gorgeous designer gowns clients like Kate Hudson and Heidi Klum are wearing. "This stuff seriously stays put," Stiles said in a Refinery 29 interview.
