SHEGLAM Crystal Jelly Glaze Stick: Your Eyes, But Make It Magic

You've probably seen the SHEGLAM Crystal Jelly Glaze Stick all over your FYP, right? Like, is it actually that good, or are we all just getting played by the algorithm? I decided to take one for the team and actually try this thing out, and y'all, I'm ready to spill the tea.

What is even this Crystal Jelly Stick?

First off, what even is it? The SHEGLAM Crystal Jelly Glaze Stick is basically a solid highlighter – but not just any highlighter. It's supposed to give you that "glass skin" look, you know, that super dewy, almost wet kinda glow. Think less "disco ball" and more "I just walked out of a skincare commercial." The texture is super interesting too; it's not a powder, not a cream. It’s like a jelly, hence the name. It looks like it could melt right into your skin.

Application & Formula: Is it great or not

Okay, let’s talk application. It comes in a stick form, which is low-key clutch. Just swipe it across those cheekbones, the bridge of your nose, maybe a little Cupid's bow if you're feeling extra, and then blend it out with your fingers or a sponge. I’m not gonna lie, I kinda love the instant satisfaction. It’s quick, it’s easy, and it gets the job done. No cap.

The formula itself is where things get interesting. It feels kinda slick on the skin, but not in a greasy way. It’s lightweight and doesn’t feel like you’re wearing a ton of product. And the glow? Dude. The glow is legit. It's not glittery, it’s more of a soft, luminous sheen that makes your skin look healthy and hydrated. Seriously, if "wet" skin was a goal, this is the cheat code.

Shades: It’s Giving Options

I've gotta talk about the shade range too, it's not the widest collection but the tones they have are pretty poppin'. It means there’s probably something for most skin tones but they are lacking a dark skin tone option which isn't very slay. I tried one that was a champagne-y sort of colour, and it looked fire on my fair skin. Honestly, it just elevated my whole look. And the fact that it's buildable? Huge win. You can go subtle for everyday slay, or layer it up for a night out.

Longevity: Is it going to last all day?

Now, the real question: does it stay all day? This is where it gets a little tricky. The wear time is decent, but it's not going to last through a full 12-hour day of you being a baddie. you'll definetly need to top up if you are heading out after your daily slay. It might fade a bit, especially if you're out there doing the most, but honestly, most dewy highlighters are a little touch-and-go in the staying power department.

Hands Down Affordable

Here's the real tea: it's affordable, like, seriously affordable. SHEGLAM is known for being budget-friendly, and this product is no exception. You can get that "expensive" glow without breaking the bank, which, imho, is a whole vibe.

So, bottom line: Is the SHEGLAM Crystal Jelly Glaze Stick a must-have? For me, it's a solid yes. It gives you that juicy glow, it's easy to use, and it's not gonna make your bank account cry. It's defo a worthwhile addition to any makeup bag. If you are looking for that no-makeup makeup look or want to give your skin that extra hydration glow, this is worth the try.

It’s not going to single handedly fix your life, obviously, but it will make you look like you've been drinking a gallon of water and getting eight hours of sleep, which, let’s be honest, we all wish we had. So yeah, go ahead and add it to your cart, bestie. You probably won't regret it. Just don't blame me when you become addicted to that glow.
