A little glow can make the whole look feel finished. The secret is placement and a light hand: bring shimmer to the areas you want to emphasize, then blend until the edges disappear.

Choose your glow

Explore Pink Sparkle and Gold Sparkle in the product photos. Pick the shimmer tone you enjoy with your blush and lip color. You do not need to highlight every part of your face.

Place a small amount first

Use a clean soft brush, pick up a little powder, and tap off excess. Sweep lightly along the upper cheekbones. Start away from areas where you prefer a matte finish.

Blend before you build

Soften the edges with a clean brush. Turn your face toward natural light and check the shine from different angles. Add a second light layer if you want more impact.

Pair color and glow

Apply blush for cheek color, then place highlighter just above it. Keep the two blended rather than drawing a sharp stripe. Finish with a lip shade that ties the look together.
