Listen closely: Summer. Is. Not. Over. We’ve got four weeks until September 21, the last official day of the season. Yes, summer ends right in the middle of Fashion Month, so you can keep that sun-kissed glow going. Luckily there’s a highlighter for every part of your being (really!) to keep you glowing from the barbecues of Montauk to the runways of Milan!

URBAN DECAY NAKED SKIN HIGHLIGHTING FLUID, $28
This creamy highlighter adds instant illumination anywhere you need it (a.k.a. everywhere). The sheer formula blends beautifully, making the product easy to use and extra forgiving. Each shade is prettier than the next. Skywalk, a pale blue, is great for brightening around the eyes, while Sin, a champagne shade, imparts a healthy-looking, lit-from-within sheen. Yes, please.
FRANK BODY SHIMMER SCRUB, $20
