The Ultimate Guide to Highlighters Part I

You can have a million different products in your makeup arsenal but the most fun one that makes the biggest difference is highlighter. It adds life and vitality into the skin to make it look as if you actually have the sun resting under your face. Who doesn’t want that? However, just like setting powder or lipstick, one size doesn’t always fit all. A common issue some dark skinned women can have with highlighter is that it looks ashy sometimes because the shade doesn’t have enough warmth, so it’s imperative to use a highlighter with the right undertone and base.

Generally you’ll want to go for something that’s a little more gold but not too yellow because then it will be very obvious and exaggerated looking. But since pretty much everything looks good on dark skin, the world is your oyster when it comes to obtaining that glow with the right hand and technique. Listed below are some of the most popular highlighters right now amongst dark skinned women and for good reason, at different price ranges.
