The queen of highlighters My favorite highlighter palette of all the time...solid gold
What it is:
A highlighter palette with two different textures: a pearlescent creamy shade and three light-catching pressed pearl hues.
What it does:
Inspired by Huda Kattan’s hack of layering oil with powder highlighter to amplify her glow, this palette is packed with two different textures. The Melted Strobe, a pearlescent creamy formula enriched with karite butter, creates a flawless, lit-from-within canvas for layering powders.

I highly recommend also purchasing the trio pallet of matching highlighters to these highlighter sticks. They play well together and separately. ...Got this as soon as I could get my hands on it and I absolutely LOVE it! The highlighter end is very similar to the Hourglass Vanish Highlighter and the balm end is less tacky and sticky than Glossier’s halo stick (which makes it the perfect balm highlighter —so many other balm based highlighters stick to my hair and drive me crazy... this one definitely doesn’t).
What it is:
A cult-covetable backstage secret that delivers the ultimate in runway radiance for a scintillating glow that is truly otherworldly.
What it does:
This transformative highlighting duo glides on effortlessly, imparting a veil of sinfully sublime luminosity. The creamy highlighter reflects and refracts light, creating iconic illumination, while the transparent balm delivers dewy divinity. Formulated with aloe and argan oils, combined with hyaluronic acid, the balm delivers smooth control and softens the skin. Whether used solo or in combination, these two luxurious finishes can satisfy every highlighting desire. Take your glow to the fourth dimension and prepare for a legendary, lit-from-within gleam that is truly aliengelic.
