There are a lot of ways to wear highlighter, and there are a lot of highlighters to wear. But when it comes to achieving that reflective, glass-like highlight — a.k.a. the glass skin trend — only certain products will do. Coined by L’Oréal Paris celebrity makeup artist Sir John, glass-skin highlighting is all about perfecting a mirror-like glow. “I tell my clients to follow a K-Beauty inspired skincare routine and remix it by adding in your favorite highlighting products to create the perfect, glassy look,” he says. Inspired by this reflective trend, we rounded up the best highlighters that can help you achieve the same effect in one simple swipe. Ready, set, glow. Hourglass Ambient Lighting PaletteCreated with real photoluminescent technology, this highlighting palette by Hourglass is sure to change the game when it comes to your daily glow-up routine. It comes with three different shades, a neutral peach beige, an opalescent pearl and sun kissed golden shade, all of which will brighten up every skin tone and shade with the softest glassy hue.L’Oréal Infallible Crushed Foils Metallic Highlighter in Gilded GlowFor a glass highlight that really packs a punch, we recommend the new L’Oréal Infallible Crushed Foils Metallic Highlighter in Gilded Glow. This stuff is what pigmented highlighter dreams are made of and will literally add instant vibrant glow in one swipe or less.Col-lab Fairy Nudes Glow PaletteA palette that will please the highlighting gods: The Col-lab new Fairy Nudes is excellent for illuminating your cheekbones, nose and cupid’s bow.
