Winter has gone and we are already in the middle of the spring. It’s time to get that glow from within and shine brighter than the sun! But how can we achieve this?
Thankfully, makeup is here for us once again. There is a huge number of illuminating makeup products available that are able to provide you with that natural glowing skin, like you woke up this way.
Probably your first thoughts are the famous highlighters. Nevertheless, there is another product category able to radiant your skin, the illuminators. The basic difference between highlighters and illuminators, is that highlighters are able to bring a ton of light in either your cheekbones or in your upper brow bone. The yielded result is not very natural and it’s more suitable for “glam” occasions. On the other hand, if you want to achieve a natural glow, like you are shining from within, you can use the illuminators. You can either mix them with your regular foundation or you can even tap them in the areas you want to give some extra “shiny” boost, and all of that without looking unnatural.
Let’s see our suggestions for some illuminating products!
It’s a liquid gold illuminator, which you can mix it with your foundation and give a beautiful dewy effect in your skin. Your other option is to put two or three dots in the areas you want to bring light on and mix it with your fingers or with a beauty blender etc.
BECCA – Shimmering Skin Perfector – Champagne Pop
It’s also a liquid product. The application is exactly the same as the Nars Illuminator. Keep in mind that… a little goes a long way!
The iconic Touche Eclat Pen from YSL is our third suggestion. It is a very lightweight illuminating concealer, which helps you bring light in areas like under the eyes, your cupid’s bow etc.
The philosophy behind this product is similar with the YSL Pen and the difference here is that it has a slightly rose gold shade and gives the most natural effect.
