Today, I am going to talk about highlighting. I’m sure you must have noticed that in parties, some ladies have their cheekbones shining than the rest of the lot. Is it their natural glow? Maybe. But most of the times, it is the result of good highlighting.
Highlighting is a part of makeup that focuses on creating the shape of the face enhancing the natural structure through very subtle makeup. Basically, the highlighter is the makeup that attracts light, creating the illusion of brightness and vibrancy, thus creating that lit-from-within look.
Highlighting is done on the cheekbones, the bridge of the nose, forehead and cupids bow. If you're a fan of makeup, you can buy a fan brush (the one I have used in the video), or you can use a blending brush or you can also apply highlighter using the tip of your fingers. Check this out in the video below.
This can be done with powder highlighters and liquid highlighters. Liquid highlighters give a dewy finish on the face, which works wonders for day events.
If you don’t want to splurge on highlighters, I would suggest buying one from Makeup Revolution. It is one of the best available in drugstore brands.
Have questions? Bring them on.
