Like with blush, there were more cream and liquid highlighters released in 2021 with less new powder releases. Out of just over 100 single highlighters I reviewed, you'll find 14 of my very favorites shown below.
If you’re unfamiliar with how I like to do my year-end favorites, here’s the low...
There was a marginally better mix of brands with new-to-me/new highlighter releases in 2021 (five!), though ColourPop certainly had the most numerous releases in the year (which is not a surprise). Here are my top seven out of 46 shades reviewed!

Oh, yeah, this is where things get interesting! There were 141 single blush reviews during 2021, and below, you'll find my top 10 favorites. I'm so glad that cream and liquid blush have become more popular, though I find I'll still reach for powder more often.

Here's a recap of my reviews of Anastasia's Summer Collection, which featured three new formulas: a cream bronzer, cream blush, and cream highlighter.
'Tis the season for gift guides! Here's my updated guide to products worth shopping at Sephora -- these are products that are permanent (or seemingly limited life, since they've been around for nearing on a year still!). I'll have a separate guide featuring newly-released, limited edition products...
Clionadh will be doing a major restock of their ranges--more details to be announced on the brand's Instagram--along with an expansion of their Stained Glass range. Here are (some) my favorites, divided into sets of six across their more black-based, white-based, and hybrid multichromes along with...
