Highlighter Stick

Types of Highlighter Sticks

Stick highlighters are available in plain, glittery and shimmery finishes. The sizes vary where some resemble huge foundation like sticks while others can be as compact and slim as a pencil. The best part of slimmer designs is that you don't even need an applicator and can also reach tiny areas like the inner corners of the eyes directly with the stick. 

Multipurpose

While the main purpose remains the same that is to bring attention to the points of application and to brighten them, highlighted sticks can also be used as cream eyeshadows and blushes. The more pigmented ones can also double as creamy lipsticks and one can create their own unique looks by adding a layer of sparkly lipgloss.

Best Highlighter Sticks

The best ones are that suit your choice, budget, skin tone and texture. If you like a subtle glow then opt for NYX Strobe of Genius Holographic Stick Highlighter. For mature skin, look for stick highlighters with absolutely no shimmer or glitter such as the Chanel Baume Essential Multiuse Glowstick.

People with oily skin can use NYX Bright Idea Illuminating Stick as it settles well and gives a matte finish. For a dewy glow go for Maybelline Master Chrome Highlighter Stick.
