It's not just hypnotizing to look at, Laura Geller Baked Gelato Swirl Highlighter ($26) also comes in five shimmery shades that give a lit-from-within effect.

Looking for a range of highlighters that pop like gold on brown skin? Huda Beauty 3D Highlighter Palette ($45) in Bronze Sands is it: The palette comes with four golden shades from champagne to deep copper.

The latest highlighting trio from Pat McGrath ($50) will take your cheekbones to another stratosphere. Each pigment has a creamy texture that feels like silk on skin.

Leave it to the highlighting masterminds at Becca Cosmetics to bless our faces yet again. The brand's latest release is a new shade of its fan-favorite Shimmering Skin Perfectors, this time in a pearly pale pink shade dubbed Vanilla Quartz ($38).

Oh, you thought the holographic trend was over? Cute. In 2018, our obsession with all things mythical lives on thanks to the Cover Fx Custom Enhancer Drops ($42). The sheer amount of times this product has been referenced int the Sephora Beauty Insider Community makes it a favorite. You have the option to dot the liquid-based formula directly onto your face or mix it with your favorite products.

We're more than happy to make room for rose gold in every area of our lives, and our cheekbones are no different. Thankfully, Maybelline's Molten Rose Gold Highlighter ($8) looks like a wash of pink-hued chrome, especially on deeper complexions.

Don't let the frosty white base fool you — this MAC Extra Dimension Skinfinish ($34) leaves behind a stunningly iridescent finish on any skin tone. It's easy to sheer out or build up for a touch of pearlescense on your cupid's bow, cheekbones, and eyelids alike.

If 2017's Fenty frenzy wasn't proof enough, no beauty roundup is complete without a touch of Rihanna. The Killawatt Highlighter ($34) is easily one of her most noteworthy launches and will leave every skin tone on the spectrum shining bright like a (gold) diamond.

A gilded highlighter with pink undertones is just about as universally flattering as it gets. The champagne rose gold shift in the Jouer Cosmetics Skinny Dip Highlighter ($24) will reflect light flawlessly on whoever it touches.

Look up words like "colorful," "quirky," and "dreamy" in the beauty dictionary, and Lime Crime will always be the first result. For bold makeup fanatics looking to jump on the rising lavender trend, the pastel-toned Hi-Lite Highlighter Palette ($38) in Mermaids will be a year-long go-to. Icy blue and frosty peach are also creative shades to switch it up with.

Wet N Wild's copper-toned MegaGlo Highlighter ($5) will look like luminescent caramel when swiped on medium and dark skin. If your jaw hasn't already hit the floor looking at the insanely low price tag, it definitely will once you try it for yourself.

Who said highlights were strictly made of shimmer? Glitter is an equally eye-catching (and totally fun) alternative, which this Milk Makeup Stick ($14) makes easy to roll on.

As long as Too Faced continues to release gorgeously extra products, we'll keep coming back. Everything about the Love Light Prismatic Highlighters ($30) is so pretty and ornate that we don't just want to wear them, we want to Instagram them, too.

Orgasm blush, meet your match. This squeezable illuminator ($30) is packed with enough light-reflecting product to get anyone through the majority of 2018. While those with fair-to-medium complexions might opt to use it as a blush topper or for a subtle standalone glow, the gold will truly pop on medium-to-deep tones.
