Top 3 Highlighters

What is that bright, shiny ball of light I see in the sky lately? Oh yeah, it's the sun. Since we are starting to see a bit more sunshine I decided now was the perfect time for me to share what my favourite highlighters are that I tend to reach for achieving a healthy glow.

YSL Touch Eclat | Once my foundation is applied I like to draw a triangle under my eyes using this and then blend it out with my Real Techniques Sponge. This is definitely my favourite highlighter for brightening up the under eye area. It can be a little difficult to blend but I do think using a sponge helps. My eyes instantly look more awake and healthy, people wouldn't believe that you've only had a couple of hours of sleep once you use this. Totally worth the price tag.

Makeup Revolution Ultra Blush Palette | Something that is a lot easier and cheaper to get your hands on is the Makeup Revolution Highlighting Palettes. I am yet to get my hands on the 3 trio palette but for now, I like to use this one. This comes with a variety of highlighting shades that are perfect for not only brightening your facial bones (brow, cheeks etc) but for applying over blushers. They don't last all day but they do last a couple of hours and really make a difference to your makeup. I find powdery highlighters easier to apply but more difficult to control. I always use this palette when I want to brighten certain areas on my face, whereas the YSL I use just for under my eyes.

Benefit High Beam | This was sat in my drawer for months without being used, it was only until I watched someone on Youtube apply it on their brow bones that I decided to include it in my everyday makeup routine. Once I have filled my brows in I like to go ahead and dab 2 or 3 dots of this highlighter onto my brow bone and then blend in with my little finger. This really makes a difference in highlighting my brows and making them look a lot more put together. It also looks incredible in any photographs which are a bonus!
