The year 2017 has indeed been the year of some stellar highlighters, and this year is going to be no different. From drugstore brands to high-end luxury ones, there are highlighters for every budget. What’s more, there are so many formulas and textures to choose from.
Here’s a list of 14 best highlighters— from the warm ones to the more cool-toned ones, from the shimmery ones to the ones with a subtle lit-from-within glow, and from cream and liquid ones to the long-lasting powder ones.

Another gem from the drugstore brand is this stick highlighter which looks dewy, natural and effortless on the skin. As the name suggests, it also photographs beautifully.

This ultra luxurious gel-cream highlighter will bathe your skin in that enviable candlelight glow. This incredible highlighter works as an instant pick-me-up for your skin and it’s a product totally worth the money and hype.
14. Fenty Beauty Trophy Wife Highlighter:
This is possibly the most sparkling highlighter in the market – meaning it is choke full of micro glitter. While it may not be for everyone, but I cannot deny that it looks most unique than any other highlighter in my stash. The glitter is very very fine but each of those catch the light and each and every one of those twinkle. I cannot emphasize enough that the pictures do not do it justice!!
