Highlighters for Mature Skin
Remember days spent on the playground, rosy cheeks and a sun-kissed glow? As we age our skin can lose the radiance of our youth, but with the right product not only can we achieve a healthy-looking appearance, but technique and placement can lift and contour the face, making it look more youthful.
While many think cream highlighters are best for mature skin, my holy grails are actually powders that have beautiful illuminating properties.
While applying highlighter just above the cheekbones may seem obvious, let’s not forget the other high points of our face - center of the forehead, above the brows and under the brow bone arch, corner of the eyes and down the bridge of the nose to brighten a dull complexion and provide a beautiful glow.
Grab a highlighter or two and don’t be afraid to try something new. I always favor palettes with pink undertones to match my skin, but experiment with different shades and amounts of shimmer (not glitter) and with a little patience you can achieve an ethereal glow!
These are my personal powder favorites:
Becca (rose quartz)
Too Faced (Born This Way - Light)
Creme favorite:
Shine on, my friends
