Face Highlighters

You should apply highlighter to areas where light naturally hits: top of the cheekbones, eyebrow arch, inner corner of the eye and Cupid's bow. Applying a touch of highlighter to the bridge and tip of the nose, together with contour at the sides, creates a harmonious effect that enhances your facial features.

Using the right brush for highlighter depends on the texture: for stick formulas, you can use your fingers, while for powder highlighters, a small, rounded brush with a flame-like shape is ideal for blending with precision and achieving a natural effect.

The best highlighter for you depends on your needs and the effect you want to achieve. Liquid formulas, which have a light texture and high pigment concentration, offer total control when applying the product: the dropper allows you to measure out the amount you need with ease and, for a light result, just one drop is enough. Cream highlighter is ideal for a smooth finish, often with a wet, natural and dewy effect, while powder highlighter is less intense and allows you to build radiance with ease by layering the product in areas you want to accentuate.

To prevent highlighter from being too intense, apply a small amount of product at a time and blend well. For a balanced result, it's important for the radiance to blend seamlessly with your make-up and natural features.

To find the right highlighter shade for your complexion, choose one based on your undertone. If you have a cool undertone, choose silver or pink highlighters; if you have a warm undertone, opt for peach, gold or champagne.
