As someone who is nearing her 30s, i kind of got over the blinding and shimmery highlighters. I recently just decluttered so many "shiney" highlights and i only kept this one. The pure nude in...

This is hands down the best product if you’re looking for a no-frills, sparkle-free, dewy highlighter. It’s difficult to describe the colour of it; looks very peach in the pan but on my skin it...

This is a great highlighter if you are looking for something a little more natural that you can wear everyday. You can also build it up for a more noticeable glow. I enjoy the baked formula. It...

Beautiful highlighter - a subtle, nude shimmer with good texture at a great price. Fairly easy to blend and lasts for several hours. However, it breaks me out. My skin breaks out pretty easily so...

This is probably the best product Essence has put out. It’s such a subtle highlighter to the point where you could lightly dust it all over your face, somewhat like the Hourglass Ambient Lighting...

I use this almost every day and I really like it. It's a little bit dark for my fair skin, but it's fine if I use a light hand. This is really pretty and it isn't glittery or chunky at all. It just...

A great budget highlighter. HG status in my collection for sure. It's very finely milled and has almost a pearlescent glow. It's a bit on the darker side. I wish they had a lighter shade for fairer...
