This is Light, not Sparkle.
Day Glow gives me a dewy radiance that feels alive, not artificial. I swipe it onto my cheekbones, down my nose, and sometimes even under my brows. It’s ethereal, subtle, and utterly divine.

Easy to use. A very natural highlight which I prefer to anything to sparkly or in your face.

Absolutely gorgeous
I have been wary of highlighter’s as I have more mature skin and was worried that it would sit in my fine lines making them more obvious. This highlighter, however, is a game changer…it glides on like warm butter and gives a beautiful healthy glow to the skin. It is stunning and now one of my go to makeup items every day. Just gorgeous.

Natural Sheen
I rarely wear highlighter as I generally find they are too shiny & draw attention to my lines, and look totally unnatural. However this Day Glow gives the best version of what I want from a highlight. Cava seems to have virtually no base colour so works well on my fair skin, and gives a really subtle natural glow, rather than shine, & only when it genuinely catches the light, as opposed to a line of glitter! I've occasionally gone a bit overboard with it (I'm a bit heavy handed) but it only ever really looks like damp skin, not makeup, and it's easy to dial it back by blending it out. Looks lovely as a very soft sheen on my eyes, bringing a bit of light to them behind my glasses, again, without just looking like glittery eyeshadow (as well as being much faster to apply). If you want a full on traditional highlighter then this isn't it, but if you just want glow this is perfect and could be one of my favourite Merit products. Plus there's loads of it so it will last for ages.

Lovely colour and texture, but not the best longevity

One of my everyday go-tos
This is a really lovely product, it gives a subtle glow without being overly shiny and is just so versatile.
