DISCOVERED
The year was 2018, and Gucci Westman—renowned editorial makeup artist known for rebuking the trend of heavy, mask-like makeup in favor of natural, authentic-looking skin—was set to launch her very own line of complexion essentials. Among them, Lit Up Highlight Stick, a translucent, skin-care packed, almost opalescent gel (in stick form) that she created to “give skin that luminosity and clarity you only get when you've just had a facial.” Our editors had to have it, and soon, every beauty enthusiast we knew was sporting a subtle-but-signature “Gucci glow.”
