The Art of Glowing Skin
Highlighter drops, aka glow drops, are designed to add a radiant, luminous touch to your skin. When applied strategically, they can help create the illusion of glowing skin and enhance your natural beauty. But where exactly should you apply glow drops for skin glow to get that perfect, dewy look?
What Are Highlighter or Glow Drops?
Glow drops are lightweight, liquid highlighters that are designed to give your skin a luminous, radiant finish. They can be used on bare skin, mixed with foundation, or applied to certain areas of your face to enhance your natural features. Whether you're going for a subtle sheen or a bold glow, highlighter drops are your go-to for achieving a radiant, glowing skin effect.
Where to Apply Glow Drops To Highlight
- Cheekbones
One of the most popular places to apply glow drops is on the cheekbones. This helps to accentuate the high points of your face, giving you a lifted, glowing appearance. For best results, apply the drops using a small amount and blend gently with your fingers or a makeup sponge.
- Brow Bone
Highlighting the area just beneath your brow can give your eyes a more open, lifted look. Apply a tiny amount of glow drops on the arch of your brow and blend outward to create a natural glow skin effect.
- Cupid’s Bow
Adding highlighter drops to your Cupid’s bow (the V-shaped dip above your lips) enhances the shape of your lips, making them appear fuller. Dab a small amount of glow drops and blend lightly for a natural, glowing effect. With the right colour lipgloss shade, this combination can be a defining statement for your final look. Dewy skin and velvet glossy lips, you can’t beat it.
- Bridge of the Nose
Using a light touch of glow drops on the bridge of your nose, can help to elongate its appearance and make it look more defined. Avoid over-application and create a soft, glowing look.
- Inner Corners of the Eyes
Take the end of your eyeshadow brush, or your little finger and dap a little light-enhancing shimmer from your glor drops. This brightens the inner corners of your eyes, opening them up, and giving them a refreshed and awake appearance. Although a subtle amount, it has a big effect on the glow of your face.
- Collarbones and Shoulders
Highlighter drops aren't just for your face—extend the glow to your collarbones and shoulders for an all-over radiant look. This is especially useful if you're going for a sun-kissed glow during the summer months. Apply and blend to highlight your body's natural beauty contours, giving your skin a dewy and glow skin finish.
How to Use Glow Drops Effectively
- Apply directly to clean, bare, moisturised skin for a fresh, radiant finish.
- You may want fuller coverage, so mix glow drops with your foundation for an all-over glow or apply on top for extra shine in targeted areas.
- Combine your glow drops with tanning drops for a sun-kissed, bronzed glow that looks natural and radiant.
