Opalescent Face Glosses

NYX's Dose of Dew Adds a Noticeable Sheen to the Skin

As the popular habit of contouring slowly makes way for more dramatic facial highlighting, brand's like NYX are catering to the beauty industry's increased emphasis on "strobing" – as evidenced by the brand's new Dose of Dew product.

While most highlighters offer a subtle glow or sparkle to the skin that is only visible when the light hits it, NYX's Dose of Dew adds a much more noticeable sheen to the skin. The product offers a soft, pearlescent glow that functions as a "face gloss." It was designed to be used on the high points of the face, including the tops of users' cheekbones, along their nose, and on their eyelids.

This highlighting product is particularly well-suited for those with dry skin.
