Cameron Diaz, 49, has a complexion as radiant as her on-screen presence. The acclaimed actress always seems to have a certain glow about her, whether she’s serving looks on-screen or spending the day with her best friend, Drew Barrymore. And lucky for us, she’s finally shared the powerhouse product behind her dewy skin. In a recent interview with The Strategist, Diaz revealed that Westman Atelier’s Lit Up Highlighter Stick is a product she “can’t live without.”

Diaz, a longtime friend of Gucci Westman, the brand’s founder, told The Strategist she particularly loves Westman Atelier products because they aren’t “just great makeup but also [benefit] your skin.”

The highlighter stick in particular is packed with a blend of 100% vegan skin nourishing ingredients. Included in the lineup is an ayurvedic oil blend and vitis vita grape extract, which Diaz says are “soothing, moisturizing, and firming.” But that’s not all. According to the brand, the oil blend also strengthens the skin’s moisture barrier while the grape extract boosts the skin’s natural collagen and hyaluronic acid production.

But the highlighter doesn’t just feel amazing on the skin, it also looks amazing. The translucent gel formula easily glides on with the stick applicator for a natural glowy finish. “I like that you don’t really see the highlighter,” Diaz explained to The Strategist. “It’s more of a true glistening of your own skin. The sheen looks just like you’re dewy, not like you’re wearing makeup.”

The Lit Up Highlighter Stick is available at Sephora for $48 dollars in three different shades, from bronze to a golden peach. And judging by the reviews, it’s safe to say that customers are loving the highlighter as much as the Charlie’s Angels actress. “This highlighter is heavenly!” writes one reviewer. “It’s gorgeous on the tops of the cheekbones or as an eyeshadow–a lip? Anything!”

Customers with sensitive skin love it too. “I have rosacea, so I have a lot of redness and dryness on my cheeks,” one reviewer says. “I love this product as a last step after foundation. It gives a lovely glow and actually moisturizes my cheeks so helps with the dryness and any flaky skin I might have.”
