Get your own bottle of the must-have highlighter that everyone in the beauty world is talking about. ICONIC London's illuminator tops the list with its versatility; you can use this product in so many different ways! 

Aside from using it as a spot highlighter, you can also opt to mix this one with your foundation for a quick way to get a full-on glow all over your face. Another way to maximize it is to blend it with body oil or moisturizing cream for a sexy, subtle sheen all over your body, perfect for glam shots at the beach!

Whichever way you choose to use it, this highlighter won't fail you. Its buildability lets you go from a soft, diffused glow to a really blingy brightness, depending on your preference. If you're not convinced yet, keep in mind that this highlighter has earned its superstar seal of approval - it's what J. Lo and Beyoncé use for that fabulous, glowing look! 

Sometimes a subtle glow isn’t what you need, and that’s okay! Wet n Wild puts the spotlight on you with their intense liquid highlighter. It comes in a buildable formula that you can layer to up the ante in your highlighter game. Its shimmering pearl pigments are sure to be a confidence boost.

Its applicator makes it easy to dot the product onto your face, so you can easily blend it after. It is also hydrating, as it is infused with Murumuru seed butter, grapeseed oil, and vitamin E to keep skin soft and moisturized. To top it off, it is paraben and fragrance-free. 

The High Beam highlighter is a cult favorite right next to their lip tint and eyebrow pencils—and with good reason. It comes in a satiny pink hue that gives you a subtle sheen of color upon swiping it on. You can wear it as a spot highlighter or dab it over your cheekbones and nose for a soft rose-gold glow.

You could also use it under your foundation for a more subdued glow. The color is not too frosty or too orange, so it is suitable for a wide range of skin tones. It is also long-lasting, which means you won’t have to worry about it slipping off your face. The product comes with an applicator, too, making it easy to dot on your face. 

Not all highlighters have to be frosty or too metallic-looking. Nars' liquid luminizer is a good example. It comes in only one shade that's versatile enough for use with different skin tones. Whether you're a mestiza or a morena, you'll find that this product works wonders for you! 

What's special about this product is that it works two ways-you can use it on top of makeup for a high-shine finish or on bare skin to achieve a naturally flushed effect. Moreover, compared to other highlighters, this one doesn't leave you with a sparkle. Instead, you get a lovely dewy look that will make you look simply youthful!

Brightening and freshening up dull skin is absolutely easy peasy with Guerlain's one-of-a-kind illuminator pen. This formulation uses Japanese pearl extract and pearlescent pigments to highlight the contours of your face with a luminous veil. The gel texture melts into the skin quickly, and the pen packaging makes it easy to slip into your purse for quick touch-ups during the day. 

Another plus is that it's infused with glycerin to help hydrate your skin and leave you with a smooth, plumped complexion. And it's versatile, too-whether you have a pale or dark skin tone, this product is suitable for you. It may be one of the more expensive products on this list, but it's certainly worth the splurge!

Liquid highlighters are versatile, as you can mix them in with your foundation if you want a more subtle look. Koh Gen Do's shades are the perfect match if you want that dewy skin effect. It instantly melts into your skin, so you don't have to spend time warming it up; just blend it right in. This gives you a subtle glow that's not too greasy, in case you're worried about that.

Its beige shade complements most skin tones, while the white variant is great for spot highlighting and brightening dull areas of your face. It is also formulated with Koh Gen Do's glowing film powder, which makes it long-wearing. Now you can make your highlight last as long as your foundation!

Almost every beauty junkie has an Anastasia BH product in their kikay kit, and it's because the brand is known for professional-quality products that are extremely wearable. This highlighter is just one example; you get a full-pigment highlighter that feels weightless on the skin. The gel-like formula gives you an illuminating effect that dries down to a natural finish. 

This is easy to blend, and you can use it in two ways: alone or layered on top of your makeup for a touch of luminosity. The three shades are also suitable for Pinay skin; no matter which one you pick, it will look great on you! Take note, though, that the glow it leaves is intense, so take care to use it sparingly!

Feel absolutely magical with Happy Skin’s Mousse in Stardust. This is a product you can use in different ways. You can play with its application on your eyelids, cheeks, and lips. Swap it for your regular eye shadow or apply it to the corners of your eyes to look more awake. Swipe it on your cheeks for instant dewy skin. This little tube has so many possibilities!

It dries into a second skin natural finish, and it is non-sticky - no more feeling malagkit. The formula is also infused with hyaluronic acid to keep your skin supple and moisturized, great for battling the hot weather. It also contains grapefruit extract, which has antibacterial properties to help fight acne. 

This local favorite has been raved about for its long-staying power that can withstand our humid climate. Users have noted that the formula stays put on their skin all day without slipping. To make it even better, Colourette has reformulated its liquid highlighter by upping its pigmentation while retaining its weightless consistency.

It can be easily blended with your fingers or a brush. It can also be used on your lips and eyelids for added pizzazz. This variant, Yellow Diamond, is a soft golden pearl shade that looks heavenly on warm-toned skin. But if you prefer a different shade, you can check out their other offerings, such as Crystal Prism, Tiger's Eye, and Rose Quartz. 

Each shade is buildable and melts into skin for an instant radiant glow. It is also very inclusive, as it flatters Filipina skin tones without looking too metallic or ashy. Another thing to note is that this brand only makes cruelty-free, paraben-free, and silicone-free products. 

Looking for a way to switch up your highlighter? This one lets you in on a great secret for achieving luminosity - crystals! It's an iridescent liquid highlighter you can apply on your face or on your lips. The formula is inspired by the beauty of crystals, specifically moonstone, which explains why the look you'll get with this one is otherworldly indeed.

Aside from that, one of the biggest selling points of this product is its ease of application, as well as its weightless and non-greasy formula. Loyal users love how its consistency is like water and how the dropper helps with accurate dispensing of the product. Just a little of this goes a long way, so this tiny bottle is sure to last you a long time!
