Fans of Iconic London's highlighter can now experience an all-over glow thanks to the brand's new Body Illuminator. Inspired by its iconic highlighter cosmetic, the brand created a glow-boosting product for the whole body that's packed with [reflective pearl pigments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pink-beach-shimmering-body). The Body Illuminator is available in two shades, including Original and Glow, and a formula that blurs imperfections and delivers a "sculpted illusion" for longer-looking legs or an overall healthy glow.

To help consumers apply its lightweight and shimmering Body Illuminator in a clean way, the brand released a companion Body Brush and packaged its all-over body shimmer in a glass bottle with a mess-free pump dispenser.

Many consumers are seeking out products that will help them get a [lustrous, lit-from-within glow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glow-reimagined), which is a universal signifier of radiant health.
