Liquid highlighter / illuminator recommendations

Years ago I used to use Becca make up - it was an Australian brand with a focus on glowy, dewy finishes. In particular I LOVED the liquid shimmering skin perfector. Then the brand disappeared I stock piled as much of it as I could, but sadly I’ve now got through it. Can anyone suggest alternatives?

It needs to be liquid (rather than a powder or block) and NO glitter (shimmery and glowy without being sparkly). I’ve tried Ilia (didn’t like stick and was too hard/waxy), Merit (far too greasy and vanished almost instantly), Charlotte Tillbury (was the pressed powder so I liked it but am after a liquid)…

keep seeing ads for Saie which looks similar to what I’m after, has anyone tried it? TIA!

NYX Professional Makeup Born to Glow Liquid Illuminator. It’s less than £10 on Amazon and I can’t believe how good it is! The rest of my makeup and skincare is from premium brands, but this product is unbeatable.

I have L’Oréal Lumi Glotion, got it on offer in Boots, it gives a refreshing sort of glow but not glittery. Lumene do something similar but more expensive.
