Drop the highlighter blush and grab the glow stick; here’s why. Sometimes powder blushes can fade, cake, or disappear into your pores. In addition, it may settle into fine lines or simply sit flat on the skin. While blush highlighters try to bridge the gap by combining colour with subtle shimmer to your face, it somehow doesn't end up giving your skin that radiance you desire. On the other hand, stick highlighters are all about the shine. Usually cream-based and in solid stick form, this formulation is incredibly easy to apply. All you need to do is swipe, dab, and blend directly onto the high points of your face, and you are going to be left with a glazed, dewy, and luminous look.
And what makes them even better? These sticks are mess-free, portable, and easy to carry without any need for brushes or compacts. Just toss one in your bag for an instant glow-up whenever needed. Whether you're on a trip or simply jumping into a meeting, these sticks are all set to deliver major glow power any time of the day.
