Get The Glow | Mel's Fav Highlighters

I love highlighters all year round. I love them in Spring Summer because they give your skin the most gorgeous dewy, fresh glow and I love them Autumn Winter because they add that touch of shimmer to your makeup application. My favourite place to wear my highlighters is on along the very top of my cheekbones. They can be worn with or without makeup to light up and brighten the face. I love when I am taking my makeup of the day selfies or just looking in the mirror and I can see my highlighter glowing!

So Where Should I Apply My Highlighter?

FOREHEAD - This only applies to a non shimmery highlighter. What I like to use is a cream concealer that is two shades lighter than my foundation and apply it in the centre of my forehead and blend it upwards and outwards so that it looks like natural light diffusing.

EYEBROWS - You can use either the same cream concealed here or you can use a shimmery highlighter. It is totally up to you. Sometimes I use a very light eyeshadow or my NYX Milk Jumbo Eye Pencil. Highlighting this area gives extra definition to your brows and will also give you a chance to perfect the line where you were shading your eyebrows.

INNER EYES - Applying a highlighter next your tear ducts will make your eyes look wide awake and bigger.

NOSE - To draw attention to the centre of your face you should apply a highlighter or an illuminating powder to the bridge of your nose.

CUPIDS BOW - For the appearance of fuller lips apply a little highlighter to your cupids bow.

CHIN - Finish off your flawless, shimmery glow by applying highlighter or an illuminating powder in a circular motion on your chin.
