Whether you want a glittery lustre or a subtle sheen, these are the top products to try now

The increased amount of time we&#39;ve all spent indoors this year due to the pandemic&nbsp;means you&#39;ve seen less sunlight than usual, and your&nbsp;skin may appear more washed out as a result. While there&rsquo;s no substitute to good old vitamin D, highlighter can replicate&nbsp;the sun&#39;s effects when applied to certain features, like your cheekbones and nose bridge, to create the illusion of light on your skin.

Liquid highlighter is especially suited for a dewy look, as&nbsp;it&rsquo;s&nbsp;blendable and less concentrated than powder or cream versions. With each major brand touting its own unique formula, we&rsquo;ve assembled a lineup of some of the best (and most popular) products on the market to make choosing a product to experiment with&nbsp;that much easier.

These drops work like a highlighter although they&rsquo;re technically skincare. Cruelty-free and clean&nbsp;(without ingredients like parabens and mineral oil), they&rsquo;re offered in seven shades ranging from Halo, which is holographic, to Candlelight, a golden bronze.

Inspired by Marc Jacobs&#39;&nbsp;love of coconut water, these gel drops contain five forms of coconut and the provitamin B5, which helps to&nbsp;hydrate and improve brightness via the fruit&rsquo;s naturally occurring electrolytes, making this one of the best liquid highlighters on the market.
