Every girl and even man knows what face powder is and how to use it. But on store shelves you can increasingly find cosmetics that have been slightly modified. For example, powders with a highlighting function are in great demand today. Let's find out what it is and what recommendations for use exist.
Highlighting powder and everything about it
There are quite a lot of unfamiliar names among cosmetic products today. It was repeatedly noticed that already familiar and long-familiar cosmetics suddenly began to be called completely differently. The “names” also change for those products that have been slightly modified and supplemented, like the product we are discussing.
Highlighting powder is a product that is used when applying decorative makeup. It differs from the usual mattifying one in that it allows you to create the effect of glowing skin from the inside. It is achieved due to the presence of microscopic reflective particles in the composition. Such cosmetics are used simultaneously with sculpting products for facial contouring.
How to use
The use of highlighting powder has several nuances:
- Selecting a tool. The thinner the brush, the thicker the coating will be, and vice versa. It is better to use those made from natural bristles.
- Face reduction. To visually narrow the oval, you first need to apply a foundation to the skin, and then a highlighter on the cheekbones and forehead.
- Highlighting the eyes. You can make your eyes look wider by applying a small amount of product to the inner corners of the upper and lower eyelids.
- Changing the shape of the nose. If you apply highlighter powder along its back, you can achieve a visual narrowing and shortening effect.
- Lip augmentation. After filling in the outline, do not forget to outline the part of the upper lip under the nose with a small amount of highlighter.
This product is truly unique and irreplaceable. You can use it both in winter and summer. The main thing is to place accents correctly and not to overdo it with glitter in daytime makeup.
What is it for?
Using highlighting powder you can solve a large number of skin problems. It helps to emphasize the beautiful line of the cheekbones, visually narrow the nose, and make the lips fuller and plump in appearance. There is simply no better way to distract attention from problem areas.
With its help you can achieve:
- stretching and reducing the oval of the face;
- fresh looking skin;
- visual rejuvenation;
- backlighting and glare;
- lifting effect;
- changes in the shape of individual parts of the face.
Highlighting powder will be especially beneficial for older women. Skillful use will hide fine wrinkles and give the skin a fresher and healthier look.
Applying a small amount to the eye area will make them brighter and more expressive. With its help, you can emphasize the beautiful arch of your eyebrows and add drama to your look.
What could it be
Skin highlighting powder comes in several forms:
- Crumbly. It is a powder packaged in a small box. It can be applied to the skin using a brush. More suitable for older women and those with dry skin types.
- Compact. It is considered the simplest and most convenient to use. Release form: compressed bar in a box. The kit includes a puff or flat sponge. Can be used to improve the appearance of oily and combination skin.
- In balls. Packaged in a small box, the balls consist of pressed powder and brightening highlighter. To apply the product to the skin you will have to use a special brush. This option is considered suitable for young girls with normal skin type.

The highlighting powder is also available in several colors for different skin tones. It can be golden, honey, bronze and pearl tones.
