Top 5: Glowing Skin Makeup

1. Lighting Primer

The key to a shining complexion starts with a good foundation. Lighting primers not only last long your makeup, but also add a subtle glow to your skin. Look for primers injected with light reflective particles or pearlescent pigments. These formulations produce a soft focus effect, obscure imperfections, and give the skin a natural-looking luminosity.

Tip: After moisturizing and before the foundation, apply a thin layer of lighting primer all over your face. To further increase radioactiveness, you can mix small amounts with foundations or use them as targeted highlighters at high points on your face.

2. Highlighter

A versatile liquid or cream highlighter is a game changer when it comes to achieving a blatant, sparkling look. Choose a light tone that will help everyone, or a warm or cool copper to match your skin tone.

Tip: Mix a few drops of liquid highlighter with the base for a full shine. Or apply directly to high-face points such as cheekbones, nose bridges, or cupid’s bows for a more targeted, bright glow. You can also tap a small amount on your collarbone and shoulders for a cohesive, sparkling look.

3. Cream Blush

Powder blush has its place, but when it comes to glowing skin makeup, cream blushing is a better choice. They blend seamlessly into the skin and create a skin finish that appears to come from inside.

Tip: Choose a shade that complements your skin tone, apply it to the apple on your cheeks and blend it on the outside. For extra glow, choose a subtle sparkle or a cream blush with a satin finish.

4. Shining setting spray

Moisturizing Setting Spray is a dual purpose product that not only sets your makeup, but also adds a beautiful glow to your skin. Look for formulas that contain hydrated components such as hyaluronic acid and glycerin, as well as light-reflecting particles.

Tip: Mist the setting spray over the finished make-up to lock everything in place and add a final glow. You can also use it throughout the day to refresh your makeup and enhance your shine, or cool the heat.

5. Lip gloss

Shiny lips can greatly contribute to the overall sparkling look. Moisturizing lip gloss or tinted lip oils add bloating to your lips and complement your radiant skin.

Tip: Choose a shade that enhances your natural lip color, or choose a clear sheen on top of your favorite lip liner. Apply to the center of your lips and blend outside for a plump effect that captures light.
