True VS Wrong: How to Apply Highlighter

In order to give the face a healthy and radiant complexion, we often use a highlighter, but instead of the expected result, we get a face with an oily sheen.

Highlighter is a very convenient beauty product that at first glance is very convenient to use. All the makeup artists of the world have been telling for several years how and where to apply it, but many still have not learned how to do it correctly. Sometimes, wanting to highlight the face, girls apply too much highlighter, and the skin looks oily. We’ll show you how to use a highlighter to really shine.

Under the eyebrow

Apply the highlighter under the brow, but above the crease of the eyelid, so you can create the illusion that your eyes are slightly larger. Of course, this rule is suitable for girls whose eyes are naturally small.

On the apples of the cheeks

If you want your skin to be radiant and healthy in an instant, use the life hack of many makeup artists. Apply some highlighter to the apples of your cheeks, after applying blush to this area.

On the bridge of the nose

To tweak your nose slightly, you can try this trick: apply a highlighter along the nasal bridge, and on the wings of your nose, apply a foundation or concealer a couple of shades darker than your skin. Carefully blend it all. With these simple steps, your nose will appear narrower.

Inner corner of the eye

One of the oldest tricks to look fresh in the morning. Add some highlighter to the inner corner of the eye to emphasize it and not the dark circles under the eyes. Apply gently to avoid evening makeup.

Diagonal along the cheekbone

To make the cheekbones more visible, makeup artists often recommend applying the highlighter diagonally from the center of the eyes to the hairline. Use this trick whenever you take selfies, and you will notice that you look even more beautiful in the pictures.

Cupid’s Bow

If you want a sheer lipstick shade, apply the highlighter to Cupid’s bow (above the upper lip). This life hack can be used if you want to make your lips more voluminous – just blend the product not only on the depression above the upper lip, but also on the center of the upper lip, add a natural shade of lipstick or gloss – the “Kylie Jenner effect” is guaranteed to you.

Mix it with moisturizer

Nowadays, natural radiance of the face is in trend, which is why all makeup artists advise not only to carefully care for the skin and use moisturizers, but also resort to some tricks. For example, mixing a liquid highlighter with your day cream or foundation will provide a radiant effect and your face will look healthy and attractive. Just do not overdo it with the amount of highlighter – a couple of drops will be enough.
