Talkin' Highlighters

Today we're talking about that beautiful summer glow. Highlighters can be so universal and there are so many beautiful colours out there to play with to enhance your features and make them pop. I love a bright highlight paired with any look. Particularly in these hot summer months when the makeup looks get minimal, you can never go wrong with having glowing radiant skin any day of the week!

Wearing here: MAC "Soft and Gentle" 

Some of my holy grail's... ♡ 

Top 3 Highlighters {as of right now}

1. NARS "Albatross"

2. MAC "Soft and Gentle"

3. HARD CANDY "Tiki"

Where to apply:

I always apply my highlighters along the tops of my cheekbones and towards the temple, down the centre of the nose, and on the top op the cupid's bow. Applying this on your cupid's bow will make your lips look bigger and down your nose will help elongate! Most highlighters work really beautiful as an inner corner highlight as well as highlighting underneath the brow bone to make your eyes pop

Brushes I use...

Morphe Fan Brush M497 or Sigma F35 Tapered Highlighter for the tops of the cheeks

Realtechniques Setting Brush for the bridge of my nose and cupids bow

These babes will light up your life! All my boo's together!

Glowing Skin Tips: To give your skin an all over "glowing from within" prep your skin with a radiance primer and then mix your favourite illuminzer into your foundation! My current obsession is combining my L'Oreal True Match foundation with a few dabs of Benefit High Beam and then applying to the skin just like you would regularly! 

Currently Craving...

The Balm "Mary Lou-Manizer"

Becca "Opal"

Laura Geller "Gilded Honey"

ColourPop "Lunch Money"

Happy Highlighting!
