How to get luminous skin!

There's several things you can do to amp up your glow! Moisturizing before you apply foundation is super important. Also you could try a primer with a hint of shimmer in it. Otherwise dry skin could make shimmer look cakey. And you don't want that! The key is highlight certain areas and not your whole face, otherwise it can make your skin look oily. Applying with a light hand with the right makeup brush will keep it soft and pretty!








For powder highlighters I use elf's tapered brush 



I Love Elf blush in Gotta Glow, it's a great dupe for NARS Albatross



Another favorite is The Balm 's Mary-Lou Manizer 




Magic LUMI primer - put a drop in your foundation to add a light shimmer




Here are the areas you want to focus your highlighting powder or cream.




Have a great Wednesday and don't be afraid to try new techniques!
