I'm looking for a very natural, everyday highlighter that is easy to pop on when you need some glow, but most importantly it can't have specks of glitter because they end up getting everywhere and it looks really unnatural to me. I just want something that is going to give me that 'glow from within' look and make it look like my skin has a natural radiance to it. Any suggestions?

What's your skin tone? Do you like more of a golden, white or pink tone to your highlight?

I'm light medium and I like more of a white toned highlight but not like blinding white but more beige toned.

Cream, powder or liquid? High end or drugstore?
Do you want an all over glow from within (like an illuminating primer) or just the typical highlighter places? To help out there's a lot more information needed :)

Mac strobe cream is a very subtle natural highlight, becca liquid highlighter in opal is a bit more intense but still gives a nice glowy effect without any glitter.

Second MAC Strobe Cream- also you can't go wrong with the BECCA liquid illuminators- mix them with primer or foundation for an all over glow or dab them on the high points of your face over foundation for more intensity (it's still subtle). For a subtle powder highlighter, Kevyn Aucoin Candlelight Celestial powder is my all time favorite. It's a grown up highlighter- no chunky glitter and it's very subtle. It gives you that "lit from within" glow. It's my HG powder, followed by BECCA Moonstone pressed powder highlight.

I also absolutely love the essence pure nude highlighter! it gives me such a beautiful glow, but not glittery at all which I love. another favorite of mine is the nars hot sands powder highlighter. sephora recently started carrying the full size, whereas it was just previously available in the laguna/hot sands duo. if you are looking for a liquid one, I have been recently loving the wet n wild cushion highlighter in "who's that pearl", as it also gives you a beautiful, not glittery, glow.

Becca pearl is great for lighter skin tones. It gives the skin a natural glowy look.
