Best Inner-Corner Eye Makeup Products

NYX Professional Makeup Jumbo Multi-Use Highlighter Stick

This creamy pencil glides onto the skin with ease and creates a multidimensional look. Apply it onto the inner corners to brighten your eye makeup — the shade Vanilla Ice Cream will give you a touch of shimmery white or, opt for something bolder like a purple-blue hue with Blueberry Muffin.

Valentino Beauty V-Lighter Face Base Primer and Highlighter

For a subtle glow that still packs a punch, try this face base primer and highlighter. It gives your skin a dewy, radiant look and can be tapped onto the inner corners of the eyes to enhance your eye makeup look.
