How To Get the Perfect Highlighter Look

The game of makeup changes its course over the years, and new trends come and go - some crazy, some to stay for long.

One of the trends that has made its mark in the makeup world is that of highlighting, and currently we see highlighting as a not-to-skip-step in every makeup routine.

Beauty brands also have come up with a variety of products to give you the ultimate glow, and based on your skin tone, you can opt for a gold, silver and even a rose-gold glow!

Highlighters can be worked with both day and night looks, some opting for a subtle glow while some going all glamorous and sparkling.

There are a number of highlighting looks that you can choose from, and here is a guide to apply highlighter flawlessly, based on the kind of glow you want.

How To Get the Perfect Highlighter Look

Dewy Highlighter

A dewy highlight is perfect for a youthful glow, to skip the years off your face, and perfect for spring time. A dewy highlight also gives a healthy look to the skin, and the ultimate key to achieving this look is moisturizing. Dewy highlights are done with a shimmer free highlight, preferably a liquid highlight or a skin illuminator, and adding a drop of it to your moisturizer. You can then dab it on the areas you wish to apply or just pat it on your cheekbones and the brow bone. To achieve all day dewy moisture use the Image Skincare Vital C Hydrating Intense Moisturizer!

Shimmery Highlighter

A shimmery highlight works wonders on lifting your entire makeup look, and adds an extra zing to that beautiful makeup. After you are done with your makeup, use a fan brush with a powder highlighter or a cream-to-powder highlighter and apply on the cheekbones, brow bones, tip of the nose and the v of the lip. Powder highlights are usually shimmery, and allow you to control the bling, and you can go subtle or extra bling as per your look. A tip for a super strong glow is to apply cream highlighter first then top it off with a powder for the highlight of your dreams.

Matte Highlighter

If you love a good highlight to top off your makeup, but are not fans of shimmery and dewy bling, then a matte highlighter is the answer to your problem. Very delicate and subtle, and ideal to make the features stand out, a matte highlight works wonders for daytime makeup looks. The trick for a matte highlight is not to use a highlighter, instead a concealer! Select a concealer two shades lighter than your skin tone and apply it with a blending sponge to the high points of your face that you wish to highlight. Using this technique with bronzing also works perfectly, and gives you a delicate matte glow.

Goddess-Glow Highlighter

For the goddess-glow that nearly blinds all, the technique is simple and easy, and you just need a cream-to-powder highlighter and a setting spray. Spritz on some setting spray on to your brush or sponge and apply it on the areas you wish to highlight. This trend was put forth by singer Rihanna, whose own beauty line brings some amazing and gorgeous highlighters. Day or night, why to care, go extra bling and be the queen of highlight that you are!
