I'm looking for the perfect liquid luminizer/illuminator that I can use to mix with my foundation to create a dewy skin look.

I was looking at the Stila All Over Shimmer Liquid Luminizer in Kitten, any opinions on that?

I've used Benefit High Beam before, which I liked as a regular liquid highlighter, but I'm looking for some other options as well.

Any opinions or recommendations on liquid luminizers/highlighters would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Becca shimmering skin perfectors :) I also really like loreal magic lumi primer for drugstore. Very subtle and pretty!

I forgot that Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector comes in a liquid form as well! I'm so used to seeing the pressed powder form in videos! Thank you, Molly (:

I have that exact stila one, but it actually doesn't participate well with dry skin. I find it exaggerates any dry patches I have and can be a little too pink. MAC's strobe cream actually looks gorgeous under a foundation that will let it seep through, and the formula actually contains some vitamins and antioxidants for the skin. I could swatch it for you if you'd like ☺

If you could, Kitty, I would really appreciate it! I'm surprised you say the Stila one is too pink since it doesn't look pink at all on the Sephora website. I'll probably have to stay away from it then, pink/cool undertones don't go well with my skin.

MAC Strobe on the left, Bare on th e right. I didnt blend it out so you can get the idea of the apperance.. once blended it leaves the skin moist and luminous but not over done

I also have the stila illuminating liquid but mine is in gold. I agree with kitty about mac strobe that gives a beautiful finish to the skin.I also like the boots N 7 illuminating cream.

You're welcome Alexis :) just wanted to show you ladies the Boots N 7 instant radiance balm next to the Mac strobe cream.I like to switch off these two because they're both pretty much similar, and the boots is a good back up. Boots is the bottom one and Mac strobe is above it. :) Alexis is you want to see the stila gold I could swatch it just for a look.

Thank you so much, Alma! I think I might get the Stila in gold just for a regular liquid highlighter, it looks so pretty!

Thank you, Jacqueline! Your review says it's water based so would it be okay to mix with silicone based products?

Here is another option I have, I'm all for glitz and glow lol here is Hard candy Glow all the way in doll face. Also if you get mac strobe you might want to get mac soft and gentle it's so pretty.

Alma, you're making me want everything! Lol! I figured I'd crack and get Soft & Gentle eventually anyways so you're right, I'll probably pick it up when I get the Strobe Cream. That combination is beautiful!
