What the gurus are saying

These glow drops deliver a natural luminous finish without glitter, and their lightweight texture makes them simple to layer or mix into moisturizer and foundation. The catch is that reflective products can emphasize skin texture, so they work best when skin is relatively smooth and applied with a light hand. Gurus praise their versatility for everything from eyelids to cheekbones and note they contain vitamin C and aloe vera in a naturally derived formula.

"Typology has glow drops, which is a concentrated illuminator traditionally used for the high points of your face. I'm going to use this a little bit differently and use it along my eyelids for a little bit of a shadow. I love a light shadow over the mobile lid to make my recessed eyes pop. It's an easy, harmonious way to bring in the eye area into this minimalist makeup look without doing a complete shadow."

"The Glow Drops are a favorite of mine. These contain 5% vitamin C and aloe vera and it gives the skin just this most incredible natural luminous glow. It's 98% naturally derived and these are really really universal. You can mix these in with your moisturizer, your foundation, or how I like to use them as a highlighter as your main highlighter."

NO ONE CAN USE THIS PRODUCT RIGHT! | How To Use Bronzing Drops Properly!
"I'm going to use the Glow Drops from Typology. I personally like to use my finger, and there's no glitter. They feel really lightweight, and you get that bronze without actually technically using any makeup. Bronzing drops are reflective, so they give a little bit more of a shine to the skin. When you add shine to the skin, it picks up details, so if your skin isn't perfectly smooth and textureless, they will grip a little bit and show up some areas you might not want to show up. But they're really simple to use when you know how and when you're doing it in the right order, mixing it with the right thing."
