Ok stop right there. If you have highlights do not use color infusing shampoo. It will change the color of your highlights.
The best color infusing shampoo or brightening or whatever you want to call it, according to stylists and many people are the ones made by Redken(I think the EQ line). I have personally never tried them, but have read great reviews about them.
They do brighten the color and keep it looking fresh, and some shades such as the reds do seem to bring out the color more.
However, like I said before, I've heard too many stories involving highlights and color enhancing shampoo or conditioner. But that being said, the stories were about people with highlights who used a darker shade on the shampoo, and ended up with different color highlights, that they hated.
If you still want to go ahead and try it, I suggest you get the shade that most closely matches your highlights (or go lighter if you have to, since a lighter shade won't cause a color change) and test it on a small section of hair on the bottom part of your head. That way if it doesn't come out right, it will just be covered by the rest of your hair.
Anyway good luck great hair, and let us know if you try it and how it comes out.
