How to? Highlighters Vol 1.
I know that many of you heard about highlighters, and that even more of you bought it, but do you really know how to use it? If used properly, highlighters can define your face and make it radiant, glowy and overall healthy looking. It is the best accessory for these spring days ahead, when you should drop heavy makeup an let your skin breathe. There are 8 areas on your face where you can apply highlighters:
1) The center of your forehead, but you should be careful and avoid this area if you have oily skin. You are going for healthy glow, not oily.
2) This is probably the easiest area to put highlighter on. Usually, the blusher goes first, but no harm will come if you mix up the order. Make sure you put small amounts of highlighter on the top of your cheekbones, do not put it all over your cheeks.
3) Highlighted center of your chin will help balance the face and give it definition.
4) and 7) Putting highlighter on the tip of your nose and in the middle will visually make the nose smaller, thinner and more defined.
5) Corner of your eyes is a very important area. Highlighter will trick others into thinking you had the most amazing sleep last night. So, if you have a problem with dark circles, or you just didn't have the time to get some rest, this will do the trick.
6) Put some highlighter under your eyebrows. This will define your brows and make eyes pop out more.
8) Last but not least, highlight your Cupid's Bow to get that sensual and defined lip.
