The Highlight Challenge

[KatieBT]

Not to generalize, but I think it's fair to say a lot of us on BeautyTalk have a slight obsession when it comes to highlighter. For me, my highlight is the finishing touch before running out the door. Some days I aim for a natural look and other days I want to look like a glistening unicorn and I know I'm not alone. Many of us have a lot of love for each of our highlighters so it's time to show them off! 

Now, onto the challenge: From March 13th- April 14th let's give our highlighters some love each day by sharing details in this thread. I encourage you to get creative and be experimental with your product and technique. There are many highlight formats (liquid, powder, balms, etc.) and you can play around with the intensity of your highlight as well. Share as much or as little as you'd like, including pictures, swatches, products, tools and your favorite tips. 

Can't wait to see your lustrous highlight looks!

It has been a busy and exhausting week, so no pics from Monday or Tuesday, but here is today's look:

Wednesday:  ABH Summer shade from the Sun Dipped Glow Kit (with NARS Luster Blush from One Shocking Moment and Marc Jacobs Tantric Bronzer)

Tuesday (not pictured):  Too Faced Love Light in You Light Up my Life (with Too Faced Love Flush blush in I will Always Love You and Too Faced Endless Summer Bronzer)

Monday (not pictured):  Lancome Glow Subtil Creme Highlighter in Glowing Lights (with NARS Sex Appeal Blush and Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer)

Also, I told my little brother about the challenge and he thinks it is silly, but he sent me his contribution:

Lol @Tamara76 Your brother is smart 😃 I love the gold tone in your highlighter. It is very well blended and looks beautiful.

[Tamara76]

Thank you!  😊  @fatimamummy

@Tamara76, hahaha I love your brother's highlight! My brother would probably send me the highlights from whatever Warriors game happened most recently. 😄 

[Tamara76]

LOL!  That is cute, too!  @MariekeBT

[DinaPRO]

This is hilarious! I love the photo you posted! This is a great every day look and the other combinations you listed sound great! Bronzers and blush support the highlight, love that you included them!

[Tamara76]

Thank you!  @DinaPRO 😘

@Tamara76 Beautiful glow! How do you feel on the Sundipped vs the NG?

[Tamara76]

@makeitup305  Thanks!  I love NG and I think I can do more with it, but sundipped will be awesome for more natural looks in the summer (I totally want all the Glow Kits now!) 😊

[makeitup305]

@Tamara76 I bought the NG and I still feel a little meh about it (I've got 4 other glow kits :P) but I'm gonna keep playing with it. I really wish they hadn't put glitter in it.

your little brother is hilarious lol.

[Tamara76]

Thank you!  Yeah - he's a riot - lol!  😝   @unfungirl

[DinaPRO]

Hi everyone! My name is Dina and I'm on the Sephora PRO Team. I'm a little late to the highlight challenge but I'm super excited to be sharing my photos and highlighting tips & tricks!

Feel free to ask me any questions! By the end of the challenge, you'll realize what a highlighting fanatic I really am!

What I used:

- Giorgio Armani Beauty Fluid Sheer in 7

- Benefit Cosmetics Watt's Up Cream-to-Powder Highlighter

How I used it:

1. Mix 1 pump of Armani's Fluid Sheer in with my foundation for an all-over natural glow.

2. Using my ring finger, I tapped Benefit's Watt's Up on to the high points of the face like my cheekbones, center of my nose and cupids bow.

These two products together give me a luminous glow!

You look amazing @DinaPRO I love your glow. Whatt's up was my first ever highlighter and I remember how amazing it was. I need to dig it out again and get some use of it during this challenge.

[jesscheems]

@DinaPRO Your eyes look amazing. I totally need to use my Watt's Up 😄

[DinaPRO]

Thank you!! Watt's Up is one of the classics! 🙂
