Highlighter that isn’t glittery

Hi! I was wondering does anyone have good recommendations for highlighters that aren’t sparkly and glittery but more glowy with a sheen to them? Thanks! 

Re: Highlighter that isn’t glittery

I'd definitely recommend the Benefit Cosmetics Cookie and Tickle Shimmer Finish Powder Highlighters Cookie  in the cookie shade! It's blinding, but also doesn't have glittery chunks in it. A dupe for it though is the colourpop highlighter in flexitarian, which is also SO good and is definitely less pricey.

Re: Highlighter that isn’t glittery

Laura Mercier highlight 01 or bronze 2-4 depending on your skin tone. It's so refined and beautiful for a powder. You can also go with the hourglass luminous light finishing powder.

Hi, @jess19999999 !  My favorite nonglittery highlighter is Hourglass Mini Ambient Strobe Lighting Powder Incandescent Light  .  Hourglass makes lovely glowy, nonglittery products.

Re: Highlighter that isn’t glittery

I like using Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops Serum  for a nice glow without any sparkle. The Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Ultra-Fine Mist 2.53 oz/ 75 mL  gives me a similar effect too. 💖

If you can try them in store to see if you like the glow they give. @jess19999999 

 

Another highlighter I like with out sparkle is Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Positive Light Silky Touch Highlighter Exhilarate  for a mega-watt glow or Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit Unlocked Palette Jellyfish. This highlighter looks bomb in photos 🤩

i definitely recommend the refy highlighter! charlotte tilbury is also great too!

Re: Highlighter that isn’t glittery

@jess19999999, I'd seek out cream and liquid highlighters.

 

For just a natural look, I love Ami Colé Light-Catching Highlighter Balm Glaze .  It's reasonably priced, easy to apply and gives the right amount of shine where applied.

 

For a glowy mix in with your foundation or wearing as light foundation, try Saie Mini Glowy Super Gel Lightweight Dewy Multipurpose Illuminator , Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter (there's a mini, too) or my fave, e.l.f. halo glow.

 

Haven't tried yet, (but on the way), tarte the buffer™ airbush foundation buffing brush .  It's on sale now and you can get 20% off with the promo.

@jess19999999 I’ve been using Laritzy Cream Highlighter. It’s not glittery at all, just a nice subtle glowy effect. I got mine from a sub box, but you can buy direct from them.
