While highlighter hadn't yet been invented during Regency-era London, perhaps the Bridgerton family time-traveled to 2024 to find their perfect glow.
Season three of the massively popular Netflix series Bridgerton has fans running out to Sephora to find out which highlighter in particular the crew is wearing for all those balls, promenades, and romantic entanglements.
One character in particular has been truly gleaming this season: Francesca Bridgerton. Daphne, Colin, and Anthony's little sister, who gets her own special moment in the spotlight this year, has been looking the part with lots of glowy highlighter on her cheekbones.
Fans were desperate to know which product was used to give actor Hannah Dodd such a gorgeous sheen on her skin, and they're pretty sure they've figured it out.

As it usually does, the conversation began on TikTok, where fans posted clips from season three, wondering what highlighter Francesca was wearing with her embellished, glittering gowns.
The (likely) answer: Pat McGrath Labs' Skin Fetish Highlighter & Balm Duo, a double-ended highlighter stick with a pearlescent highlighter on one side and a transparent balm for a dewy finish.
Others think it's the Skin Fetish Sublime Skin Highlighter, which delivers a similar effect in a powder form.
“I know the makeup artist from Bridgerton loves Pat McGrath,” one TikToker shares before trying out the product on their cheeks, and indeed that's true — the beauty line even dropped a few Bridgerton-inspired collections when the show premiered, and another fan suspects that highlighter could be the key to Francesca's look.
As evidenced by several videos, the final result with any of these picks is a glistening but not shiny highlight that would definitely make you the diamond of the season, even if you're not hanging out at Queen Charlotte's court. Watch out for Lady Whistledown!
