Hi Everyone! Adding highlighter is one of the most fun and final steps in a makeup routine—it’s where the glow comes in!

Whether you’re going for a soft shimmer or a bold sparkle, highlighting the right areas can truly enhance your features.

1. Choose Your Favorite Highlighter

Personally, I like to apply highlighter to the high points of my face—any spot where light naturally hits or where I want to draw a little extra attention. One of my go-to products is the Flex Highlighter from Milk Makeup in the shade “Blitzed.” It’s been a favorite for a long time, and even after countless uses, it’s still going strong!

2. Start with the Cheekbones

I usually start by tapping highlighter onto my cheekbones using my fingertips. This helps build a radiant, natural-looking shine.

3. Brighten the Eyes

Next, I take a small, dense brush to gently sweep some highlighter onto the inner corners of my eyes and the brow bones. These areas help brighten and lift the eyes for a more awake look.

4. Add Glow to the Center of the Face

For extra dimension, I sometimes apply highlighter to the bridge and tip of my nose, the cupid’s bow above the lips, and just above the brows on the forehead. These small touches bring light and structure to the center of the face.

5. Blend for a Seamless Finish

No matter where it's applied, blending is key. Whether using fingers, a sponge, or a brush, soft blending ensures the highlighter melts naturally into your skin.

Highlighting is like the sparkle that completes the look. Whether you keep it subtle or go bold, it adds that perfect finishing glow to any makeup routine. Have fun, experiment with placement, and let your features glow beautifully!
