6 Shimmery Inner Corner Highlighters for a Summer Glow

We have a problem. Every time it's summer, we can't resist glowing everywhere! Our cheeks, nose and cupid's bow have an intense amount of highlighter. But by far, our favorite place to apply it is in the inner corner of our eyes. There is something so ethereal about having a metallic sheen in the center of your eyes. It truly helps accentuate the sparkle in them.

To enter your dreamy goddess era this summer, continue reading to discover the best inner corner highlighters.

NYX Professional Makeup Jumbo Multi-Use Highlighter Stick in Yogurt: $5.99

We always return to NYX's Jumbo Eye Pencil. The tip is the perfect shape to maneuver around your inner corner. Plus, each swipe is super pigmented. While our favorite shade they offer is the warm-toned champagne, Yogurt, they have endless colors for more experimental looks.

 

ColourPop Shadow Stix in Honey BB: $8

ColourPop's Shadow Stix is everything-in-one. With this tiny but mighty pencil, you can (most importantly) highlight your inner corner but also swipe across for a shimmery eyeshadow look. And unlike the other pencils on the market, you won't have to purchase an additional sharpener because it arrives with one.

Honey BB is our favorite shade for summer. Warning—you will look like a glazed donut after application.

Pixi by Petra Endless Shade Stick in Pearl Lustre: $14

If your eyes tend to get dry, you'll love Pixi by Petra's Endless Shade Stick. This product has an infusion of green tea, aloe and chamomile to offer hydration. Even with these ingredients, the texture is creamy (not oily) and lasts all day. For an extra sweet look, we'd recommend the baby pink shade Pearl Lustre.

 

3CE Eye Switch in Dalsegno: On Sale for $10.49

Sometimes, we like to bring the inner corner highlight under our eyes. On these occasions, a pen may be too thick to use. Instead, we prefer something more precise, like Korean brand 3CE's Eye Switch. It has a fine tip to thinly glide around the lower part of your eye and blend into the corner. The gold shade, Dalsegno, has a gorgeous bronze hue to match the summer vibe.

 

Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Positive Light Silky Touch Highlighter in Exhilarate: $25

Are you a pro at applying highlighter? Then, you may have no issue with using a brush to add it to your eyes. If so, we must recommend Rare Beauty's Silky Touch Highlighter. It has the most buttery texture on the market, and its micro-shimmers will give you a natural summer glow. You can't go wrong with any shade, but Exhilarate screams sun-kissed with its bright, gold glitter.

 

Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter in Champagne Pop: $42

We couldn't forget the classic Becca Champagne Pop. This shade looks beautiful on every skin tone, even if you are cool- or neutral-toned. With each swipe, you'll get some of the most rich pigment, and you can feel confident it won't budge throughout the day.
