Bring light and radiance to your skin with these luminizers.

Hawiza Sharpe — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 04:46:41 +0000

Luminizers are a must in my makeup kit. Also known as “highlighter”, “illuminator” or “shimmer”; it is definitely a product that you want to add to your makeup routine.

With a secret ingredient like mica, a natural mineral that sparkles, it will give your skin a natural warm and glowing appearance without being too glittery or greasy. It will erase any signs of fatigue and it will also brightens your complexion.

Apply it to the very top of your cheekbones to give your skin a dewy appearance, the corner of your eyes to open up your eyes, the bridge of your nose for a narrower nose or to your decollete and shoulders for sexier looking skin.

Here are some of my favorite luminizers:

YSL Touche Eclat Radiant Touch

Benefit High Beam

Nars Orgasm Illuminator

Smashbox Soft Lights

A visionary and an artist. Fashion has lost one of its great artist.

May he rest in peace…
