so...its official i am a Highlighter Addict, i know its bad im going to get some help. I just love how they make your cheeks look once you apply them or how they make your lips look.
I'm loving-
- Touché Éclat by YSL,
- Highbeam by Benefit,
- Strobe Cream by MAC,
- MAC Cream Colour Base- Luna
- Copacabana Illuminator by Nars.
___________________________________________
- Touché Éclat is one of those cult products that any makeup lover has tried before whether they like it or not. I personally love this product, it highlights as well as on pale skins slightly conceals. The light reflective properties work well with under eye circles etc. Not suitable for Flash Photography
-TIP- When using this outline the lips lightly and blend out to create a gorgeous full pout.
___________________________________________
- Highbeam by Benefit is the most gorgeous pastel pink colour with gold undertones which dont show when fully blended but add to the gorgeous glow of the skin. The formula is soft and blendable even flawless if applied correctly.
-TIP- Use a clean cotton to dip into the bottle and apply 3 dots along the cheek bones on either side as well as 3 along the brow bone to create a gorgeous glow and give the skin some dimension
___________________________________________
- MAC Strobe Cream is quite similar in texture to the Highbeam but this has a white texture with a pink shimmer. When blended into the skin it looks more like a glow than a shimmer which is think looks amazing, it would work great for a cheek highlight
-TIP- This can be mixed in with your foundation to give it a really nice dewy-glowy finish without looking shimmery or glittery, Great for a night out!
___________________________________________
- MAC Cream Colour Base- Luna- is a very pigmented white silky satin colour which can be used again as a cheek highlight or even as a brow highlight and powdered on top. This colour is quite hard to work with unless it is worked a little (Heated up, Body Heat) other than that quite a nice colour and long lasting
-TIP- Placed on top of the cupids bow, this colour will accentuate and make the cupids bow stand out making your lips look more defined
___________________________________________
- Nars Illuminator in Copacabana has to be my most favourite ever!! Its so creamy and when i say a little goes a long way i mean it (a sample of this lasted me a month!!)) This is amazing for cheek highlighting but does tend to be a bit shimmery in my eyes and I'm not to big on the shimmer! but it does look amazing a lip highlight!
-TIP- A little goes a long way...dont over do it
