How to apply highlighter liquid for a more natural look? Can expired highlighter be used?

Liquid highlighter is a type of highlighter, usually more suitable for people with drier skin. However, some beginners may not know how to use liquid highlighter, so we need to know how to apply liquid highlighter more naturally. Can expired highlighter be used?

Different face shapes require a good method of using highlighters. You can use a makeup brush or fingers to apply highlighter liquid. When using highlighters on a round face, the main areas are the center of the forehead, the triangle area of ​​the lower eyelid, and the chin. The makeup brush used to apply highlighter liquid should not be too soft. Only hard and resilient bristles can control the extension of the highlighter liquid. When using highlighters on a long face, the area should be from the eyelid to the cheekbone. You can also use your fingers to lightly apply or smudge, but be sure to apply it evenly on the face before the highlighter liquid dries. When using highlighter powder on a square face, the main areas are from the lower eyelid to the cheekbone and the chin, which can make the face look rounder.

It is not recommended to use. When choosing any cosmetics, you should pay attention not to choose cosmetics that are close to the expiration date. Once used after the expiration date, especially for overly sensitive skin, it is easy to cause skin allergies, or uncomfortable acne after use. When buying cosmetics, it is best to choose a new production date, and it is best to use it up within half a year after opening. Long-term non-use will cause the ingredients in the cosmetics to volatilize. When using it, you will feel that the skin is particularly uncomfortable, and it may even clog the pores, causing acne and blackheads on the skin. The highlight effect of expired highlighters after use is not particularly good, and it will also affect the overall makeup effect. After buying highlighter powder, be sure to place it well. When placing it, you need to put the highlighter powder in a cool and dry place, and do not expose it to the sun. If it is exposed to the sun, the effect will be particularly poor. Once placed in a relatively humid place, it is easy to cause the light powder to appear lumpy after overtaking, which will basically cause uneven makeup when used.

Generally, it is better for people with dry skin to use liquid highlighter, because dry skin is prone to peeling. Liquid highlighter contains sufficient water and oil to meet the needs of dry skin. Liquid highlighter can cover the pores well for dry skin, and it is very moisturizing after applying it on the face, without dryness and peeling. Liquid highlighter is not recommended for friends with oily skin, after all, liquid highlighter itself is oily, and if used on oily skin, it will make the oiliness of the face worse, and the makeup will appear dirty and mottled. In terms of usage, the use of highlighter powder is simpler than that of liquid highlighter. Use a powder puff or powder cake on the face, and then use your hands or beauty eggs and other tools to spread it evenly along the direction of the skin; liquid highlighter is generally used with foundation or primer. After completing basic skin care, apply the mixture on the face and pat it with your fingers to smudge it.

Highlights can modify the cheeks and brighten the skin tone, while loose powder is mainly used to control oil and set makeup. Generally speaking, highlight is used before loose powder. After using highlight to modify and brighten the skin tone, loose powder is used to set the makeup, which will make the makeup more durable. However, some girls will use highlight after setting the makeup with loose powder. This does not have much impact and can be decided according to their own makeup order and preferences. Apply highlight powder on the T-zone in the middle of the face. The highlight on the forehead cannot be drawn too high, just slightly higher than the eyebrows, and the length can be slightly longer than the distance between the eyebrows. Use a high-profile brush or fingers to blur the highlight, but do not let the highlight powder be too scattered.
