Ciaté Dewy Stix

Say the word 'highlighter' and shimmer, glimmer and sparkly gleam come to mind. But a more natural type of radiance comes not from metallic micro-particles – but from moisture. In fact, what defines young -v- old skin tends to be a lack of natural dewiness.

From Ciaté then (who are better known to us for fab nail products), is a clever and innovative way to add a glow to skin – without even a whisper of glitter.

It's in the form of a nourishing, swivel-up balm which you glide over collarbones, cheekbones, cupid's bow (it's great there) – and it gives the skin a real lit-from-within, three-dimensional beauty.

It's true that you could achieve something similar with lip balm. But with this sitting in your make-up bag, you're more likely actually to do it – and literally watch the years roll back, with that simple gesture.
