Fresh, dewy skin is on trend this Spring, so here are some products that will help you incorporate this wearable style into your makeup routine. Glowing skin with copious amounts of highlights take a lighter approach to contouring. Highlighting enhances the high points of the face, which in turn makes them stand out from the shadowed parts. Without further ado- here are some products that will help you achieve a glowing, youthful complexion.
PRODUCTS (clockwise from top left): Dior Addict Lip Maximizer in the shade 006, Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat Radiant Touch in the shade 4.5, BECCA Shimmering Skin Perfectors (pressed) in Champagne Pop and Opal, Laura Mercier Foundation Primer in the shade Radiance Bronze, Chanel Vita Lumiére in the shade 30 beige
Begin with prepping the skin with the Laura Mercier foundation primer. This ensures that the makeup will last throughout the day, in addition to adding a bronzed glow to the skin. Next, apply foundation, and blend it in with a damp beauty blender. This particular foundation has a relatively light coverage, so I would suggest initially applying it to problematic areas of the skin in order to ensure that those areas receive the most coverage. As one could infer from its name, this foundation has a luminous finish, and it feels very light weight because it has a water-like texture.
Next, brush on some highlighting pen onto the areas of the fact that appear tired, as this product is literally eight hours of sleep in a compact package. Dab it under the eyes, on the bridge of the nose, above the eyebrows, and on the tops of the cheeks to instantly bring light into your complexion. Blend it in with clean fingers to maintain a natural look.
To complete the face, apply highlighter to the tops of the cheekbones, bridge and tip of the nose, inner corners of the eyes, brow bones, and cupid's bow. For highlighting the inner corner of the eye, apply it in the tearduct, and along the base of the eye, stopping when your lash line begins. This fully illuminates the eye, making it appear brighter and more awake. Either do this with a fan brush, a pointed synthetic brush, or a large tapered eyeshadow brush. The BECCA Shimmering Skin Perfectors are very pigmented, use a very light hand. The top color, Opal, is a golden pearl color, whereas the bottom color, Champagne Pop, is a rose gold color. Both colors illuminate the face and add bronzed radiance. Opal is more natural, as it catch
Lastly, to give the look next level luminosity, finish with a gloss. This Dior shade has finely milled traces of sparkle running through it, so it naturally gives the lips shine and dimension. It also has a "Collagen Active" element which plumps the lips slightly. This color is the perfect nude/pink that is a universal "your lips but better" shade. Also, the formulation of this product is not sticky, so it is comfortable to wear.
