Top 10 Highlighters for Pale Skin

Top 10 Highlighters for Pale Skin

I don’t know about you, but for a pale skin tone girls like me, it’s super challenging to find the right highlighter shade. You have to be aware of gold undertones that might look patchy and be aware of too pigmented formulas as these are hard to make look natural. In today’s post, I rounded up some of my most favorite highlighters that work for fair skin girls.

Clare Blanc Luminizing Mineral Powder 

Not many people know about this indie brand, but I totally adore this highlighter! It provides the most luminous and gorgeous glow

Wet N Wild Illuminating MegaGlo Palette 

This highlighter palette is super affordable and you receive lots of product for the buck. The product provides a beautiful gold-undertone finish that looks not too pigmented on the pale skin girls like me.

Milani Spotlight Face & Eye Strobe Palette 

If you are into silver undertone highlighters, you’ll love the shade of this highly pigmented and super affordable product.

Flower Shimmer & Strobe Highlighting Palette 

On the days when I’m taking photos or want my highlighter to blind people, I apply one of the pigmented and so shimmery shades from this highlighter palette by Flower Beauty. It’s been my first product from the Drew Barrymore’s makeup line and this impressive palette definitely force me to want more items from the line.

e.l.f. Illuminating Palette 

I’m always surprised by the quality of e.l.f. products, but this one was even more than I could expect. I was truly impressed with the elegant finish of the highlighters that come in the set and had a good use of each shade—both for photographs and everyday wear. Without going deep into reviewing each shade, I have to say that this affordable product is a bomb! Definitely, check it out!

Pixi Aspyn Ovard Glow-Y Powder 

I received this highlighted in the PR mail a long time ago, but never had a chance to check it out. What a mistake it was! The product provides such gorgeous glow that will blow your mind!

Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom All-in-1 Nude Palette 

This rosy cheek and eye palette feature some of the finest blended highlighter shades that look super natural due to the unique package design. The product is shaped in a way that the brush picks up a few shades at one time to ensure flawless, multi-dimensional application.

e.l.f. Baked Highlighter 

This highlighter is the most subtle from the list which makes it a perfect product for all sorts of daytime occasions.

Too Faced Love Light Prismatic Highlighter in Blinded by the Light

This blinding highlighter shade looks gorgeous on photos, but I would not recommend applying it onto the Cupid’s Bow as it’s quite bright. I do love how it looks in the corners of the eye though; it also works quite nicely as an eyeshadow.

Tarte Spellbound Glow Rainbow Highlighter 

This unicorn highlighter provides a #GlowToTheSkies kind of coverage that looks amazing in photos and indeed transforms you into an ethereal creature. The highlighter provides a buildable coverage and looks even more pigmented if packed with the help of a setting spray and dense brush.

    I’ve tried the elf baked highlighter but it did not go well on me. It was super dry, and I got no pigment out of it. It could have been the shade I got though, I recall someone telling me another one of the colors was way better.

    I am right there with ya on the e.l.f products! I’m always weary to try thinking that they surely can’t be that great with such a low price point but I’ve actually found SO many awesome products that I sometimes prefer over more expensive products! I’ve never tried the highlighter but I need to find it and try it out!
