radiance

This term evokes a sense of luminosity that emanates from a center, suggesting a glow that is soft yet powerful. While it describes physical light, it carries a strong positive connotation of purity and brilliance, often associated with divine or celestial sources.

When applied to people, it describes an internal state of joy or vitality that manifests physically. It differs from simple beauty by implying an active, outward projection of happiness or health, as if the person is glowing from within.
