Glow Your Own Skin - 1

Love the pretty flush you get after a brisk walk or a belly laugh? Now you can get that gorgeous glow even on the drabbest days.


The just-went-for-a-run glow


For a vibrant, outdoorsy flush – no activity required – put on a palette of pinks. After applying foundation that has a lustrous finish, smooth a glistening pink liquid highlighter on eyelids, forehead, nose, cheek-bones and chin – the luminescence will instantly brighten your face. Next, dust lids with a shimmery apricot eye shadow, glide some berry blush across cheeks and slick on a matching berry lip stain.



The chic hint-of-glint glow


If your skin is on the pale side, try a Midas touch. Start with matte foundation (shine free skin helps golden high-lights show up better). Then brush brush a pale gold powder on eyelids, and rev up the sparkle quotient with a layer of glimmer golden eye shadow. For cheeks, go with a pink-gold blush, then seep a deep gold powder along the tops of cheekbones. Now color lips with a rich, rosy tone that shimmers but doesn’t shine – a little gilt definitely goes a long way!
