Baked Highlighter
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
Milani's Baked Highlighter delivers a soft, buildable glow that can be diffused or built up, with one creator describing it as a "white skin glow from within" look. Abbey Yung (beauty content creator) notes the pinky champagne shade may be too pink for warmer undertones but suits cooler skin, and she prefers Essence Pure Nude and L'Oreal Lumi Le Glass to this. CosyWithCait gives it a strong yes, calling the highlighter absolutely stunning.
