Highlighter: look younger with a play of light
A great beauty rule: the more play of light and shadow we create, the fresher the look. It is clever here if we emphasize the areas of our face that are caressed by the light anyway (keyword: sun terraces) with the shimmering powder. So we apply it to the forehead, bridge of the nose, cheekbones and chin. Ideally, we use a fan brush for this - it prevents an overdose and only releases a hint of product. And this is particularly important, as too much highlighter can quickly look unnatural.
Liquid versions in pipette bottles are an alternative to powder. This allows us to buff in foundation and cream drop by drop. Mix on the back of the hand, then apply - this gives a tired gray haze an instant hello-wake-up kick that lasts all day. Too much of a good thing? No problem: top with translucent powder to soften the holographic finish.
Eye make-up that makes you look younger
These 3 beauty tips with highlighters will make you look younger
Highlighter on the eyelids opens up the look
This flattering miracle even helps with tired eyes. It almost conjures away drooping eyelids or dark shadows. Particularly suitable for this: the practical pencils. They conceal wrinkles and tired skin better than any glitter eyeshadow on the eyelid (be careful, use a primer first here too). If we paint some of it onto the concealer under the eye, the charm effect is enhanced even more.
How a highlighter creates a beautiful décolleté
It is particularly important when styling that we always think about the neck and chest area, after all, the cut-out floral dress is supposed to work! Of course, this includes applying a layer of face powder or a little blusher every time. Highlighter also creates a few great highlights down the chin. You can either brush the shiny particles over everything with an extra-large powder brush or use the liquid version, which you can mix into your sun cream, for example.
Highlighters also make the body glow
Especially in outfits that show more skin on the arms and legs, it looks great when we dust gloss on our forearms or shins. There are body lotions that are already enriched with shimmer particles. This makes even fair skin look instantly summer-fresh and healthier.
