Funny you say that, because I panic bought so many Becca highlighters when they announced they were going out of business (did that even happen?). So I'd also love to know the answer to this. I always put a lil on, but I am nowhere near as shiny as I was in 2017/2018. 

I wanted to be a highlighter girl when it was all the rage. I bough Champagne Pop, i did the whole thing. But ultimately, my skin (i have tons of freckles and am pale as hell) and it’s texture, just didn’t look good with it. 

Any highlighter with a color to it is out. Neutrals only, and we’re done putting it on the tip of our noses and peaks of our lips. Just some cheekbone and under eyebrow work, and you’re good. 

That said I do miss being 100% reflective 5 years ago. I felt safer walking at night ✨✨✨

It’s still in. Just cheekbones mainly now

I have a really cute stick from Milk Makeup that I kinda like...but with my skin I always felt like I looked greasy/shiny instead of highlighted. I think if you do use it less is more!

NGL… I still love highlighter. I feel like it’s SO out to wear it, but it’s just too fun to give up. Becca forever. 💕✨

My medicine cabinet is FULL of highlighters purchased circa 2017. But my question is: are we still highlighting? If we are, how are we doing it? I can’t imagine ultra-shiny cheekbones are a thing in 2022, but correct me if I’m wrong. 

Should all these highlighters go in the trash, or is there use for them yet?

What is our stance on highlighter these days?
