Three highlighters that cost less than 10 euros: they are not Charlotte Tilbury's, but they achieve the glowy effect

Posted on 23 August 2026

If you have run out of the Charlotte Tilbury highlighter that came as a gift with the September Elle magazine, don't despair: we have alternatives at a price very similar to that of the magazine that can get you out of trouble.

One of the most important steps to achieve juicy and luminous skin when you put on makeup is the highlighter: use it only to place points of light in strategic areas of the face to also achieve that effect. glowy and with a good face that we all look for. If you also have mature skin, choose the cream, mousse or liquid format (instead of powder) to prevent expression lines from appearing.

Lumi Le Glass by L'Óreal Paris

One of our favorite options, since it has a super soft texture and also has modular coverage, so you can start with a small amount without going overboard and load the area as needed. It blends easily with makeup base or CC cream, if you use it, to achieve a mirror shine without leaving a residue. It is available in four shades.
