Clinique, for me at least, just has a little shimmer and not the "shine," and this is a shimmer type blusher.

Too Faced Pink Leopard Bronzer. This is FINALLY a bronzer and highlighter that doesn't look like MUD on fair skin. It gives me such a warm, sun-kissed glow.

BB Shimmerbrick Beige gives that just right candle lit glow without too much colour
TBS Shimmerwave in blush, more colour but good as an alternative to bronzer
I missed out on Lightscapade, Glissade, Shimpagen and Porcelain Pink so I hope they come around again

Re: Porcelain Beauties: Highlighters/ Products to give you that "GLOW"
I'm another pale person. A tiny bit of High Beam mixed into foundation gives me a great glowy look. I've also discovered Winter Radiance Meteorites, which show up much more on me than the Mythic shade, and highlight beautifully. This summer, the Barbie Pearl Sunshine powder gave me a bit of a sun-kissed look.

I personally am not a MSF fan at all! For that "Glowy" look, I use The Beauty Powders. One of my fav is from BLM in "Pearl Sunshine". My HG!!!

Re: Porcelain Beauties: Highlighters/ Products to give you that "GLOW"
Ooh I forgot, my fav beauty powder which is Yogamode, for a nice glow.
I've just tried Glissade finally and its brilliant, just a hint of peach glow, not too glittery.

Re: Porcelain Beauties: Highlighters/ Products to give you that "GLOW"
I just got a new-to-me product yesterday, by smashbox...called Artificial Light. I'm in /love/ with it.
(I'm too pale to wear NW15, if that helps...)

Re: Porcelain Beauties: Highlighters/ Products to give you that "GLOW"
I really like Benefit's Perfect "10" Powder or Miss Popularity. There's also this gigantic jar of pink highlighting powder that you can get at CVS or whatever....I forgot the brand but it's like $11 bucks. It's gorgeous on fair skin!

Re: Porcelain Beauties: Highlighters/ Products to give you that "GLOW"
As far as MAC goes, I think that Lightscapade, Glissade, and Shimpagne look wonderful when applied over a matching blush, or all-over in the case of Lightscapade.
As far as non-MAC, The Body Shop's shimmer waves in Rose and Peach give me a luminous glow.

Re: Porcelain Beauties: Highlighters/ Products to give you that "GLOW"
I finally got my mitts on NARS Albatross, and it's the best highlighter I've used (so far).
Only trouble is that I wish it had a little more staying power. It doesn't fade away completely, but you do have less glow after a few hours of wear.
Still, it's so gorgeous, it's worth the occasional touch-up.

Re: Porcelain Beauties: Highlighters/ Products to give you that "GLOW"
I'm slightly more than porcelain.....I use Goldmember creme blush with Albatross atop as a highlighter. I also use them on eyes and atop of lipstick-in the center to make my lips look really full. (both are NARS)I'm into layering products and less blending. I also like Too Faced First Base-probabley the most underated eye shadow base ever-as a cheek and lip highlighter. This is one of my desert island HG products.

Re: Porcelain Beauties: Highlighters/ Products to give you that "GLOW"
Some of my favorite highlighters are:
Clinique - Fresh Bloom in Peony or Up-lighting Liquid Illuminator in Naturel.
MAC - Beautypowder in Yogamode. If I want a bit more color I like to use Pearl Blossom or Pearl Sunshine.
MAC - Blushcreme in Uncommon.
TBS - Shimmer Waves in Blush, which gives a subtle pink glow.

Re: Porcelain Beauties: Highlighters/ Products to give you that "GLOW"
Glissade is the PERFECT shade for me. I am NW15. A real Porcelain doll, a little transparent too. 
When I apply it on the cheeks with no foundation it is even nicer and gives a more natural glow.
The best when you are in a hurry too and don't have time to do your entire face.

MUFE has a pale pink star powder that's a really nice highlighter if you use it sparingly. It's so glowy but looks good with just a tiny bit on.

Re: Porcelain Beauties: Highlighters/ Products to give you that "GLOW"
I don't know if I'm "porcelain" at NC20, but I have to say that I recently found Lightscapade at a CCO and I am in LOVE. It gives such a beautiful glow!
On a more daily basis, I use EM's Wet Sand, which leaves me with just a hint of shimmer (but not glitter!) that helps my cheekbones stand out.

Re: Porcelain Beauties: Highlighters/ Products to give you that "GLOW"
i use a tiny bit of benefit's high beam. it's shimmery so quite a few people dislike it but i really like the shimmer, personally. it's not so shimmery it's disco ball, it's just enough to give you a nice glow.
