Create a base with glitter eyeshadow of the color of your sequins (glitter is packaged in different colors, always metallic and iridescent, to be used on different occasions based on the color of the dress). A tip to stay in palette: if you opt for a silver glitter dress, always opt for the cold colors (purple, dark blue, cold pink, silver). Create a shaded base, darkening from the inside out. Then apply your glitter with a brush, possibly purchasing a product final fixative . LIPS : with such a shiny look, your lips will have to be kept in nude tones, but still shiny.

Never forget to complete the work with a good dose of fine eyeliner and a mascara appropriate for the occasion. Fantasy black: if your mood is festive and irreverent, why not completely subvert the elegance of black and dare with fluorescent colors?

There are also so many possible combinations for your make-up, both for the eyes and for the lips, which will enrich your style even more. Let's see together: EYES : with white you can indulge in the intensity of your makeup, but less in the chromatic variety. The perfect combination with a white dress, in fact, is given by a pale white (or a pearly blush pink) on the eyelids, very light and delicate. To increase the intensity of the eye you will have to play with black: you can use a marker eyeliner (like Revlon Colorstay Liquideye Pen ) or a semi-permanent Peggy Sage marker , also available in metallic colors (earth/powder). LIP : Peggy Sage Red Feelings lipstick It's the perfect choice if you've opted for eye makeup sober and nude ; on the contrary, if you have exaggerated with the heavy effect on the eyelids it is better to stay on nude in the lipsticks: we recommend a pale pink in a powdery color , avoiding candy pink or too intense pink like the plague. If you follow our advice, everything will be easier and with your make up you will amaze friends and relatives. Ready to party ?

The face highlighter is a cosmetic product aimed at covering skin imperfections, creating, at the same time, points of light that enhance the face and give an almost natural shine. Most of the time it is used as the final part of an entire make-up process, other times it is preferred to apply it at the base.

In short, the highlighter for the face has literally made all make-up lovers fall in love: all that remains is to discover every secret of this splendid product. In what format can you find the face highlighter? This cosmetic, much loved by all make-up lovers, has changed its format over time, giving space to a series of valid formulations to satisfy every need.

In addition to this, they are available in different formats: liquid/cream/drops stick dust The format liquid or cream They are usually distinguished by having a very soft texture and is easy to apply, with brushes or fingers, and unlike the others it takes a few seconds to dry. The colors are particularly intense and reflective while blending perfectly with the complexion. An example of a liquid face highlighter is Skin Lightening Light produced by Nouba. An innovatively designed bottle with a convenient dropper, from which a silver-pearl highlighter comes out, enriched with pearlescent micronized pigments.

It stands out for its extreme compactness and for being perfect for both the face and the décolleté area . Debby has also created her own line: economical but effective, with a soft texture and a shiny effect. What is the strobing technique? Strobing is the name of the new make-up technique that is driving the web, influencers, celebrities and all make-up lovers crazy. Strobing comes from the phenomenon that produces an intermittent light, in fact the effect on the skin would be exactly that. It is as if there were many small flashes illuminating the face. It would enhance or even replace the contouring . It is becoming more and more popular precisely because the idea of obtaining a natural make-up that enhances the strategic points of the face , using points of gloss is much loved, especially in the summer and for non-photographic make-up. This technique is quite simple to put into practice and is increasingly preferred over classic contouring which is considered too heavy. How to proceed First of all, it would be good to apply some primer to even out the skin tone and to provide a base for the highlighter. After that, we proceed to apply our lightener on some tactical areas. The center of the forehead to give it back dimension, the cheekbones to externalize them, the upper part of the eyelids to make the gaze more intense, the chin to make it appear narrower and to give a plumping effect to the lips. All this can be embellished with a touch of blush on the cheeks. This is an effective technique to give vitality to your face, but you have to be careful not to overdo it with the highlighter, otherwise the effect will be anything but natural. You have to use only small touches of product, so as to make the face illuminated without exaggerations that would appear artificial. One thing to be careful about is using the technique if you have a face with excessive sweating, in which case it is advisable to dab very well and give a powder finish and/or finish with a spray fixative that holds the make-up in place. It is also advisable to be careful when using this technique if you have excessive facial hair. Unfortunately, this tends to highlight the hairs. Now that we've told you everything, all that's left to do is try strobing to give your face a new light!
