Highlighters Are My Friends

Hi, my name is Liana and I am a highlighter-holic(?). Okay, that didn't flow very well....but what I'm trying to say is that I love highlighters! I use one every day to give my skin a glowy finish, and to highlight under my browbones and the inner corners of my eyes. Here are some of the highlighters that I currently own:






L to R: Physician's Formula Shimmer Strips in Vegas, e.l.f. Illuminating Facial Whip in Lilac Petal, and Victoria's Secret All Over Face Highlighter in Divine/Desire-I love this one! But sadly, I don't think they make it anymore :(


L to R: Hard Candy Blush Crush Baked Blush in Living Doll, Silkygirl Shimmer Duo Blush in Sunny Glow, and MAC Mineralize Blush in Rhapsody In Two. I know blushes aren't really highlighters, but these all have a shimmer effect that works great for highlighting or rosy cheeks.


L to R: Hard Candy So Baked Bronzer in Tropics, and Forever 21 Love & Beauty Bronzer


L to R: Lotree Shimmer Bling Face Designing, Cezzane Contour/Highlighter, NYX Highlighter (not too fond of this one, but still try to use it and not waste it!), NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Cottage Cheese-love this!


These are the brushes I use to apply my highlighters, or sometimes l'll just use my fingers.


So tell me-what are some of your favorite highlighting products?

i recently picked up revlon's mineral finishing powder in brighten, and its very similar to a msf! so far, im loving it as a highlighter :) also, ive been really liking NYX mosaic powder in highlight. pretty pretty :D

Highlighters are a new thing for me! I've always wondered how some people can achieve light in some areas and always thought it was a camera technique. Little did I know you can wear it on and look glowing! :p

To me it seems most highlighters do the same trick, so I don't have a favorite at the moment. I don't own many other than the experimental ELF ones that I have, which I really like :) I have one from Smashbox that I don't use often but I do love the different colors :)

Gorgeous colours. Love the eyeshadow palette especially. I purchased the elf brush set and I have no idea how to use a fan brush! Such a waste lol

I wish I knew how to wear highlighters! I guess that's why I love your blog!! Hehehehe...I love your new pic- so pretty!!!!

Diane said...

OMG! I'm exactly the same way, I love highlighters too! Anytime I see a baked shimmery highlighter I go crazy. The Victoria's Secret HL you showed is sooo pretty, too bad it's discontinued, it would def be something I would go looking for. =)

im so glad all you girls liked this post, you should definitely give highlighters a try if you haven't, they add such a nice glow and finishing touch to your face! :) i love cream ones or shimmery baked highlighters, but not ones that are too glittery. maybe ill do a post about how to apply highlighters :)
