How to Use:
For those who do not have time to contour in daily routine, apply this highlighter on your cheekbones and shine out the entire day. This comes in a cute packing with kind of nail paint applicator wand which can be a task to apply for the very first time. Use this to enhance your sharp features like cheekbones, browbone, cupids bow and forehead. Make dots on top of the area to be highlighted and with naked finger just dab dab dab! Always remember do not rub it harshly as you might feel you have lost it somewhere.
My Experience with Benefit Sun Beam Highlighter
‘Hey, how did you get that natural glow?’ is the question which pops up when my highlight is on fleek. My complexion is towards white tone which I personally don’t like and I use a darker tone of foundation mixed with this highlighter to get that natural glow and dusky tone. It makes my skin look healthy and dewy.
I make it a point to use it before my foundation application so that my foundation gets a glowing finish and doesn’t look too gaudy. Later I apply it on my cheekbones and blend it towards my hairline. Mine lasts all day with ease with primer. It’s more of an illuminator and looks even better when applied over a bronzer.
