What to look for when choosing a highlighter

1. Form, consistency. There are highlighters on the market for every taste: in the form of pencils, friable, compact, liquid. Powders are great for dry makeup, completing it. Liquid ones, on the other hand, are used wet, applied directly to the foundation, before applying the setting powder. Loose ones are suitable for lovers of mineral cosmetics.
2. Tint. It is important to consider the color pigments that make up the highlighter. Usually they are white, golden, pink, beige, peach, silver, bluish. Golds and beiges accentuate tanned skin. Peach – refresh olive and yellowish skin tone. Blue and pink – look harmoniously on pale skin, making its shade delicate. White ones simply highlight the necessary parts of the face. Sometimes it happens that the tool combines all the shades at once to give a multidimensional effect.
3. Price. Highlighters, regardless of the price, fulfill their main function. Therefore, if there is no money to buy luxury products, then feel free to buy funds from the mass market.
