highlighters for pale skin
“They're still shimmers, but they don't seem to reflect as much light. Also I'm relatively pale (NC20) so they're not highlighters for me, they're more like blushes and eyeshadows”

“After trying countless highlighters, I’ve finally found the one for me! This highlighter gives off the most dewy, luminous glow”
Shiny Highlighter
“First of all I think the packaging is aesthetically pleasing, and I’m a SUCKER for beautiful packaging. The luminizer/highlighter itself is so soft and gives you a natural glow - NO glitters (I prefer highlighters WITHOUT glitters.) ”
