Tracking down this OG jelly highlighter is worth it because it leaves skin as glazed as a doughnut — and that's a good thing. Tap the dewy illuminator on with fingers over any areas you want to enhance. The innovative formula transforms from a gel into a powder for a pigmented, wet-satin finish. The intensity can be increased from golden goddess to megawatt 24k gold. For next-level shine, mix it with a powder formula.
This jelly highlighter might be packed with sparkling pigment but it maintains a silky smooth finish that feels good anywhere it's applied. (That includes collarbones.) The wet jelly dries down, holding the pigment in place to maintain that lit look. Take your pick from gold and ultraviolet shades — or get both. At this price, they're a steal compared to other formulas.
Obsessed with colored highlighter? Experiment with gold, bronze, pink and even red while enjoying the bouncy texture of a jelly highlighter with this new launch. The self-smoothing, memory-form highlighter has a water base for comfortable wear. It dries quickly, leaving behind a burst of concentrated pigment. For extra cuteness points, each highlighter comes in a little purse.
