Description
Liquid highlighter with bakuchiol for a warm golden glow
Warm light does something to a face that no foundation or powder can match. Candlelight, morning sun through a window, the late afternoon hour before sunset — these are all moments when the skin looks warmer, softer, and more vibrant than under normal daylight. Holding onto that effect when the light is less favorable is exactly what a good liquid highlighter is for.
The Delilah Wake Up Radiant Elixir Candlelight translates that warm gold-peach candlelight hue into a liquid formula you can apply any time of day. The product stands out from regular highlighters because beneath the shimmering finish it contains a serious skincare treatment: raspberry stem cells, next-generation hyaluronic acid microspheres, and bakuchiol work together to actively improve the skin while worn. This combination earned the Delilah Wake Up Elixir the Veggie Award 2026.
Color: Candlelight is a warm natural peach shade with a golden undertone that gives the skin a sun-kissed, inner-lit glow.
Benefits
- Warm golden glow that looks natural on all skin tones
- Contains bakuchiol as a plant-based alternative to retinol for signs of aging
- Immediate plumping effect thanks to hyaluronic acid microspheres
- Versatile use: under foundation, over makeup, or mixed with base products
- Packaged in a 100% recyclable tube made from recycled plastic (PCR)
Active ingredients
Raspberry Stem Cells: These plant stem cells improve skin elasticity and hydration and visibly restore the resilience of tired skin. At the same time, they protect against environmental stressors such as air pollution and blue light — key contributors to premature aging.
Next-Generation Hyaluronic Acid Microspheres: While traditional hyaluronic acid works only on the skin surface, these microspheres penetrate the upper skin layers where they attract and retain water. The result is an immediate plumping effect that visibly softens fine lines and refreshes the skin’s appearance.
Bakuchiol: This plant-based extract is recognized in dermatology as a gentle alternative to retinol. It stimulates cell renewal and has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, without the irritation or sensitivity that classic retinol often causes. Perfect for daily use on mature or sensitive skin.
Light-reflecting pearl particles: The warm gold-peach shade of the Delilah Radiant Elixir is created by ultra-fine pearl particles that softly reflect light in a golden shimmer. They are so fine that they do not accentuate texture or pores, which is crucial for mature skin.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Candlelight suitable for a cool skin undertone?
Candlelight, with its warm golden undertone, is primarily developed for warm and neutral undertones, where it seamlessly blends with the natural skin tone. For a pronounced cool undertone, Moonlight might be a better match — that is the cooler oyster-pink variant within the same Delilah Wake Up Elixir line.
Can I use the Delilah Wake Up Radiant Elixir Candlelight in the evening before bedtime?
Yes, it can. Thanks to the bakuchiol, raspberry stem cells, and hyaluronic acid microspheres, the product also works as a light treatment. Apply a thin layer as the final step of your evening routine when your skin needs extra glow and hydration — even without makeup.
Does this product contain retinol or should I combine it with SPF?
It contains no retinol but bakuchiol — a plant-based alternative without the known sensitivity to sunlight. However, daily sun protection is always recommended, even when using the Delilah Wake Up Radiant Elixir Candlelight, to optimally maintain the results of the skincare actives.
