Make this summer [1] the season of shimmer and spritz, sweep, or stroke on a top-rated body highlighter to bring your glow from zero to 100. After all, radiance isn't just for your face [2] — as that dewy sparkle can spotlight your shoulders, arms, legs, and pretty much anywhere you'd love to subtly glisten in the sun.
Sephora has a ton of powders, gels, sprays, and oils with a varying degree of shimmer so, whether you want to go semisheer or full music festival, there's something there for your body. Some add a touch of colour [3] and others are pure iridescent sparkle [4], but most can also be used on your face [5], hair, lips, and eyes, too.
After smoothing on sun protection (always! [6]), follow that with one of these top-rated body highlighters from Sephora when it's your time to shine. Check out our picks ahead.
