Listings show two main formats: dual-ended cream sticks that combine contour and highlight, and pressed powder highlighters.

The highlighters are described as sheer to buildable with a blendable, pigmented formula—able to provide a natural sculpting effect or a more noticeable glow depending on how much you layer.

Product descriptions consistently list shimmer or a high‑impact pearl finish, designed to create a radiant, luminous glow.

For dual‑ended cream sticks: apply the deeper shade along natural contours (under cheekbones, jawline) and the lighter shade to high points (cheekbones, brow bone), then blend. For pressed powder highlighters: use a small, fluffy brush to lightly apply and build glow on cheekbones, cupid’s bow, collarbones, and other high points.
