As the popular habit of contouring slowly makes way for more dramatic facial highlighting, brand's like [NYX](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jelly-job) 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/romnd-glasting-color)." 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glow-protect-spf-50-liquid-highlighter) is particularly well-suited for those with dry skin.
