A touch of a face highlighter changes your entire look and can give your skin a glowing, luminous and three dimensional effect that keeps your face from looking flat. Just apply a little on areas on your face where the light hits the most, such as your cupid’s bow, above your cheekbones, on the bridge of your nose, the centre of your forehead and on your brow bones. Get the perfect glow with these top face luminizers!
