Lightshift Cream Highlighter 7,8 g

The Lightshift Cream Highlighter by ILIA Beauty brings light to the face without making the highlighter itself the first thing you notice. Its silky cream melts into the skin on application and transforms into a featherlight powder with the warmth of your skin. The result is a soft glow that looks like it comes from within – radiant, but not glittery.

A little on the cheekbones makes the complexion look instantly fresher and more vibrant. Applied to the brow bone, tip of the nose, or Cupid’s bow, Lightshift catches the light exactly where it flatters the face most. Its sheer color payoff can be gently built up: from a barely-there shimmer for everyday wear to a more radiant glow for the evening.

Shades

• Glint – a soft, light champagne shade; especially beautiful on fair to lightly tanned skin tones
• Arc – a luminous gold with a peach undertone; especially harmonious on medium to tan skin tones
• Daze – a warm copper with a golden radiance; especially beautiful on deeper to very deep skin tones

Plant-based squalane keeps the texture smooth and helps preserve moisture in the skin. Antioxidants from green tea and microalgae help protect against oxidative stress caused by environmental pollutants. Silica and cornstarch help the cream settle weightlessly, making pores and minor imperfections look visibly softer while the glow lasts up to twelve hours.

The non-comedogenic formula is suitable for all skin types – including sensitive, mature, and blemish-prone skin. For a sun-kissed complexion, Lightshift pairs especially beautifully with the Sunshift Cream Bronzer. Discover more radiant textures in our selection of natural beauty highlighters.

FAQ

What finish does ILIA Lightshift Cream Highlighter have?
Lightshift has a naturally luminous, soft-focus finish. The pigments reflect light without looking like coarse glitter on the skin.

How strong is the color payoff?
The color payoff is sheer at first and can be built up in thin layers. This lets you choose between a very subtle everyday glow and a more intense highlight.

Which shade is right for my skin tone?
Glint is especially suited to light skin tones, Arc complements medium to tanned skin tones, and Daze was developed for deeper to very deep skin tones. However, you can also choose based on your preferred warmth and intensity.

Is Lightshift suitable for mature skin?
Yes. The fine cream-to-powder texture contains no coarse glitter particles and can be applied in a very thin layer. It blends into the skin and can help soften the appearance of pores and minor unevenness.

Can I use the highlighter on dry skin?
Yes. Plant-based squalane makes the texture smooth and helps retain moisture. For best results, dab on the highlighter with your fingers or a soft brush so the foundation underneath doesn't shift.

Is Lightshift Cream Highlighter suitable for blemish-prone skin?
Yes. The formula is non-comedogenic and was developed for all skin types, including blemish-prone and acne-prone skin.

Can I apply the highlighter over powder?
Yes, but the skin should only be lightly powdered. Gently press on the highlighter instead of rubbing it over the skin. The texture blends particularly seamlessly over liquid or cream complexion products.

How long does the highlighter last?
An instrumental test showed wear of up to twelve hours. Actual wear time may vary depending on skin type, skincare, and the foundation used.

Is ILIA Lightshift Cream Highlighter vegan?
Yes. The formula contains no animal-derived ingredients. The product is also cruelty-free and Leaping Bunny certified.
