Ignore my completely undone hair and look atthat glow. It looks this good, even when the camera’s not doing it full justice.

I’ve used it almost exclusively since.

Ilia’s formula sinks into the skin very quickly, almost like a skin-care product.

Once again, that’s coming from someone who, until recently, absolutely hated gold highlighters.

Regardless of shade, you’ll find ease in this water-based formula that’s also packed with skin-softeningglycerin.

The Ilia Beauty Liquid Highlighter is $42 and is available atiliabeauty.com.
