Let's be real: We all want skin so radiant that it can be seen from space. If my highlight isn't bright enough to blind my haters at 100 paces, I'm not interested.

Which is why I'm so psyched about this: MAC has released a brilliant new product that will make your highlight shine like the top of the Chrysler building, AND hydrate your skin — all at the same time.

This is the Prep + Prime Essential Oils Stick from MAC Cosmetics.

It may look like a glue stick, but this brilliant product ($27, MAC Cosmetics) does so much more. Not only does the oil stick provide a major moisturizing boost to your skin, it also creates a BEYOND amazing base for highlighter.

Swipe the oil stick onto your skin where you want your highlight to be the MOST blinding...

For me, this is the C-shaped area around my cheekbone and up over my eyebrow that I call "the Mariah highlight."

Rub a powder highlighter overtop...

According to MAC, Sam is using Extra Dimension Skinfinish in Beaming Blush ($33, MAC Cosmetics), a shimmery gold that reflects pink.

BAM. Highlight turned up to eleven.

SO angelic!

Seriously, I'm sold. I love products that a combination of skincare and makeup — especially in winter, when so many of us (me) need a little extra boost. Plus, who doesn't want to take their ~glow~ to another level?
