This is a liquid highlighter from Rare Beauty (by Selena Gomez). The product page describes it as: “a silky, second-skin liquid highlighter that creates an instantly dewy, buildable glow.”
The shade Enlighten is described as “cool champagne”.
Size: Net weight listed as 0.5 oz / 15 mL.
Key formula features:
Contains super-fine, light-catching pearls.
Made with a botanical blend of lotus, gardenia and white water lily extracts.
The formula is vegan, cruelty-free and suitable for layering over powder, cream or liquid bases.
Radiant, natural glow: The “cool champagne” tone of Enlighten gives a luminous finish that works especially well for fair-to-medium skin tones and for delivering a polished glow in imagery.
Versatility across skin tones: Because it is buildable and has a second-skin texture, it can adapt to different skin depths — useful when working with diverse models or multiple skin tones.
Great for photography/brand visuals: Given your premium beauty-lifestyle work (product shoots, model campaigns), the refined, liquid highlighter finish delivers dimension and glow without heavy glitter or chunky shimmer — which tends to photograph better.
Flexible use: It can be used for targeted highlight (cheekbones, brow-bone, nose bridge) or mixed into foundation for an all-over glow. The product page specifically mentions mixing into foundation for a soft glow.
Brand fit & quality: Rare Beauty is a reputable brand with a strong visual aesthetic and inclusive approach — aligning with your brand imagery and luxury-beauty focus.
Here are recommended steps, especially tuned for your beauty-lifestyle and visual-branding workflow:
Prep the skin: After foundation/concealer is applied (and lightly set if needed), ensure the high-points of the face (cheeks, brow bones, nose) are well blended and smooth.
Apply: Using the doe-foot applicator, apply 1-2 dots of Enlighten to the areas you want to highlight:
Top of cheekbones
Brow-bone
Bridge of the nose
Cupid’s bow
(According to the brand: “Apply 1-2 dots directly over any areas you want to add a touch of glow.”)
Blend: Use fingertips, a small brush or sponge to gently diffuse the product outward so it merges seamlessly with skin and makeup. Because you work in high-res visuals, blending is especially important for a clean look.
Layer / Mix-in:
For subtle glow: one dot may suffice.
For more intense highlight (e.g., model campaign, editorial look): apply another dot or slightly increase amount.
For an all-over radiance (especially in lifestyle/travel visuals): mix a drop into your foundation or tinted moisturizer.
Check under lighting: Because your imagery involves varying lighting (studio, daylight, mobile), test how the shade reads under your actual shoot lighting—ensure the glow appears luminous but not overly reflective or “flash-hot”.
Touch-ups / Kit use: Carry in your kit for model shoots/travel; the liquid formula means a little goes a long way. If you’re moving through multiple looks in a day, minimal touch-ups should suffice.
