Colorful Skin Illuminators

The PRISM Rainbow Highlighter is From Bitter Lace Beauty on Etsy

Described by Refinery29 as "the all-time glitziest illuminator," this rainbow highlighter is making a lot of noise online. Available from Bitter Lace Beauty on Etsy, the highlighting product reflects light and gives the skin a magically dewy appearance in all the colors of the rainbow.

Currently out of stock due to popularity, the PRISM rainbow highlighter is suitable for all skin tones. The metallic palette is part of a homemade cosmetic range by Jenna, which also consists of gold and copper, pink and nude, seafoam mint and a gold-silver combo highlight. A few of these are even vegan-friendly.

Given the recent surge of strobing as a makeup technique, it is unsurprising this highlighting product is all the rage. A new release date will be made known soon.
