Highlighters have become one of the most sought-after products in the beauty industry for the past couple of years. It feels like everywhere you look, there’s a new tutorial that touts their greatness. Because seriously, who doesn’t want to try and achieve that famous JLo Glow?! But first, you have to buy the right highlighter for your ever-glowing needs — so what highlighters are the best and where do you find them!? After years of testing every highlighter on myself and my clients, I am sharing my 10 favorite highlighters that give a range from a natural subtle to an “OMG! You are blinding me!” finish.
If you’re looking for a fashionable holiday gift for any man in your life, you cannot go wrong with anything from Sézane’s men’s collection, Octobre Éditions.
Known for its velvety-smooth, cream-powder formula, Colourpop's Super Shock highlighters have made a name for themselves. Flexitarian is one of the best selling shades — it’s a silvery-champagne color with a pearlized finish that is super buildable!
I recommend applying with finger tips for the most intense application, but if you want a more subtle glow, they recommend you use a duo-fiber brush to give your skin an airbrushed look!
This palette comes with two velvety powders and two luxurious cream formulas for highlighting options. It can be used for face and body, giving you the option to have an ultimate glow moment from head to toe!
A honey-hued luminizer that gives a soft and subtle glow to the skin. Best for fair to medium skin tones for a very natural light highlight!
This highlighter is made of pearlescent pigments that will leave your skin with a ‘reflective melted metallic finish.’
Though Maybelline has new shades for their Master Chrome collection, the Molten Golden is by far their best selling color because it looks great on every skin tone!
With a versatile and universally flattering sun-kissed shade, this highlighter can be seamlessly added into any makeup look! Made with the use of the highest grade pearls, they give this highlighter its high luminous pigment!
This illuminator has become a must-have product for makeup artists in their kit because of the way that it makes skin look healthy and lit from within.
You can go from subtle to intense with this buildable high-pearl powder; and with four color choices, you can pick the perfect illuminator for your skin tone!
With its luminous creamy stick and vegan-friendly formula, this highlighter is the perfect product for someone that wants to take their everyday makeup look up a notch. It’s as simple as sweeping the stick on concentrated areas where you want a bit more of a glow! Plus, it's infused with coconut oil, mango butter, and avocado oil for lasting hydration.
Just remember — cream formulas are best applied on top of liquids or other cream products so that it doesn’t cake up or separate!
If you're a highlighter fanatic, then you have definitely heard of Becca’s most popular product, Shimmering Perfectors! With fifteen different color options, it has a super smooth velvety formula that is easily swept on cheekbones and everywhere else you want a high-shine finish!
This palette is a staple product in my kit because of its range of shades to highlight any skin tone, and because it applies so smoothly on the skin!
It gives a satin, radiant finish, so it's perfect for camera since there aren’t sparkles in the formula.
Another must-have for makeup artists and one you can always find in my kit. It’s a creamy, gel-like formula that leaves the skin looking dewy, but never greasy or glittery. It is infused with castor oil and coconut oil for a hydrating effect.
I recommend using finger tips for application, and remember that this is best applied on liquids or other cream formulations! Applying on top of a heavy powder foundation will create separation or cakiness!
