Step 10 : Cream Highlighter – Luscious Face contour Matte Drama
The highlighter and illuminators are essential for this look, so feel free to use them. I used the cream highlighter from the same palette to highlight the cheekbones, nose, cupid’s bow, and brow bone, creating a radiant glow. Afterward, I blended it all together using a clean brush.
Step 11 : Illuminating glowing powder from Loreal
If you thought the highlighter was enough, well, you’re mistaken, because we will be using another incredible glowing powder that I treasure and guard closely, just like a three-faced dog guarding Philosopher’s Stone from Harry Potter.
This powder elevates the tanned, sun-kissed makeup look to another level, I promise. Unfortunately, it has been discontinued by Loreal, so I use it sparingly when needed.
Even a small amount of this powder goes a long way, and it complements my brown skin beautifully. I have applied it to the same areas as the cream illuminator, enhancing the overall glow.
Step 12: Blush – MAC dilly Doll Blush
This is a stunning limited edition blush from MAC that I have applied to the apple of my cheek. It is a soft, light rosy blush with a shimmering finish, which looks incredibly beautiful on brown skin, especially when paired with a tanned makeup look.
Step 13: Lip Liner
I used the brown 078 lipstick from Sweet touch as a lip liner in this look. It is my go-to liner, yet it is a lipstick. PLOT TWIST!
As a lipstick, it’s not great because it’s too dark. But as a liner? WOAH, it never fails me and has always been my companion, even when Urban Cafe broke my heart.
It has transformed many lipsticks for me, making it a great investment.
I’ve kept the natural shape of my lips and used it to outline only.
