Beautiful finish though a little sticky

I want to preface this as a long-time Nudestix fan who has purchased Nudestix products since day one. There was a product in the beginning that I reviewed and loved which was not in a twist up stick format. It was the highlighter that is in the same format as the eye shadow sticks and lip and cheek ...sticks that needed to be sharpened with the sharpener that it came with. I absolutely loved that one because it didn't feel sticky and it lasted through everything--chlorine saltwater tears sweat heat and humidity. I was sad when they discontinued it.I already owned a few Nudies and love them but I did not have a highlighter from the Nudies collection. I have a million highlighters at home but I wanted one with no colour base because I find that many of the highlighters with a base colour often clash with my skin tone once I sweat a little bit or just don't go on even and reveals my skin underneath. I don't wear foundation (no acne or skin problems) so I wear highlighters on my bare skin. This one has a tacky texture but it does give a colourless glass finish that's very glowy but not overdone. It fits in the Nudestix aesthetics and is very easy to use.While it gives a glass finish it does have a somewhat sticky texture even hours after application. I have a glow stick from Sephora that is like that but that one is stickier and I didn't like it. This one is sticky but once you put in on you don't feel it. However if you touch your face a lot this will come off. Because I don't wear foundation underneath I don't find it to be a problem lifting products under but if you wear foundation it's best to tap on with your fingers. The spots where I applied near the cheeks can be so emollient that the product will smear concealer a little bit but nothing that a little patting won't fix.I think if the texture isn't so sticky I would give it 5 stars. I do miss that old non-twist-up stick formula but I have been using Ice Ice Baby for that beautiful glass skin look.I don't have dry or oily skin and I find that this stays on my skin for a good 8 hours before fading a little bit (especially if I touched my face). Because it has no colour base the fade is natural enough that you won't have to touch up. All in all I do like it but if it isn't sticky I would give it 5 stars and it would be holy grail status. Would I purchase it again? No but not because it's not good but because it has so much product it will last me a long time.
