I personally like Benefit's Cookie highlighter. I also have the ABH Sugar Glow Kit palette and use that frequently.

I really like Jouer’s powder highter, I think it’s so underrated. Benefit’s cookie one is also really nice

For a liquid one i’d say Rare. They have a nice range too.

I just recently found what I will now call my holy grail powder highlighter at Sephora. I wish I had discovered it sooner!! Melt Cosmetics “Digital Dust Highlight”. They have gorgeous shades, my favorite is “Stargazer”. I think it would actually be a good dupe for the tarte shade you liked! I also think it’s flattering on every skin tone. I love it because it’s beautifully pigmented and reflective, with a super smooth application. (And no glitter chunks!) I highly recommend. I can’t believe (but I’m kind of relieved) it’s not super famous!

Check out Temptalia for shade dupes! :)

Essence pure nude is so natural and glowy, not shimmery or glittery. It’s the only highlight I keep coming back to.

Wet & Wild MegaGlo highlighting powder. I've replaced mine multiple times since I've used it up. It is my holy Grail over my high end ones.

The Wet n Wild MegaGlo highlighter in the shade Blossom Glow is my absolute favorite and also one of the most affordable. I bought it as my first ever highlighter and it’s still my go to.

Essence pure nude is chefs kiss for natural. More extreme, colourpop flexitarian. Wet n wild precious petals is in between.

Essence

Obsessed with the Laura mercier matte radiance baked powder in the shade 01 highlighter. Actually such a lovely nice subtle highlight powder, it’s my HG! Expensive but I’ve had it for years and I think it will last longer than I will 😂 Go try it out at Mecca if you’ve got access to it.

It’s expensive but the Dior forever couture luminizers are beautiful. I’m talking about the ones that come in just a single pan and not the backstage one!

I've heard the hourglass powders are nice. I've never personally tried. I don't wear makeup enough to drop the coin. The Vegan w7 powder used to be lovely but a quick search seems it's not available anymore, which is a shame. All my others do have glitter (which I'm not a fan of either)

I love the Mary Lou-manizer from The Balm! Got mine at priceline and it's my everyday go to!

I quite like the Maybelline Master Chrome. Nice colour and one of the smoothest I’ve found personally, I don’t like the glittery look either

The Dior quad highlighter is seriously so pretty. I saw it in-store and it had the most beautiful soft glow—super natural, not glittery at all.

The highlighters from 2an and Glint are very fine and give me a more natural/smooth looking glow.

If you are looking for a smooth , wet look highlighter Clio prism air highlighter would be great it has almost glossy glow without chunky glitter another one can be Etude glow beam highlighter.

If you want smooth and wet look without chunky glitter some options can be Clio prism air highlighter ,Rom&ND veilighter. They have glass skin effect without being too shimmery

Seconding this post because I'm extremely picky about highlighters and only ever end up liking powder or cream-to-powder formulas. I could use more product recs, particularly in cooler tones.

I did purchase one of the more natural shades in 2an's lineup though (ND01) and I really like the natural sheen it gives despite still having a slight shimmer. However, I did find that the product wore off on the quicker side in comparison to my non-AB highlighters that gave a more dramatic effect.

Merit's day glow highlighting balm is really pretty and looks very natural!

I love the rare beauty highlighter. I use a ever so slightly damp sponge to apply on cheek bones and my fingers to tap on brow bone and nose. It’s lovely.

Chanel luminizer. 10/10

Benefit High Beam

The OG subtle highlighter ✨️

If you want more subtle glow: Clinique’s chubby highlighter stick or Jane Iredale’s highlighter stick. If you want something with a little more oomph try Benefit’s Cookie.

I love the Rare Beauty powder highlighters! Take note they’re very fragile tho. If you drop it on a hard floor, it’ll shatter instantly. A little goes a long way, and it works immediately! It’s very finely-milled, so the texture is like silk. Not chunky at all!

Kevin Aucoin Glass glow! The best!!!

I'm currently using the L'Oréal lumi le glass sticks and they give the glass dewy look perfectly.

I have tried the hince and the espoir kbeauty options and the L'Oréal by far is the best

I use the 610 shade

Wet'n'Wild Mega Glo, it's great to use with a slightly wet make up sponge, and yes, it's mega glow

HERA Healthy Glow Dewy Balm

INOUI Highlighter 

Red Chamber New Wandering Multi-Purpose Stick in Closing

Those with no sticky feeling, esp. Red Chamber's.

Cezanne Pearl Glow Highlight in 01 Champagne Beige 🍾✨️ has super fine shimmers that gives a beautiful, natural looking glow on the skin

It’s hard to get the wet look with a powder highlighter, the finer the shimmer the wetter the look, but at some point it starts to look metallic instead of wet. It’ll look wet in pictures but in real life it’ll look metallic, iykwim?

If you must have powder perhaps the wakemake one that is a dupe for the Dior quad that all the celebrity makeup artists in Korea use?

You might have better luck with cream highlighters that aren’t sticky, it’ll give a more natural look than a wet glossy look but paired with a dewy base and setting spray it’ll work better than powder I think.

Finally, you can try experimenting with wrapping masks such as the medipeel one. It’s what aespa had on in one of the MVs. Once it’s dried it won’t be sticky, but the corners might lift if you move your face too much.

Girlscrush is the answer - it went viral on xhs for giving that wet look while being a powder
