Get your glow on with Anthropologie's collection of radiant highlighters.

Where do you apply highlighter?

To achieve that lit-from-within radiance, apply highlighter to the high points of your cheekbones, the bridge of your nose, the cupid's bow, and the inner eye corners. When planning for a dewy and fresh look, reach for cream and liquid highlighters—they blend like a dream for that natural glow. And if you're always on the move, don't forget the highlighter sticks—they're perfect for a quick and easy touch-up.

How do you apply highlighter?

Start with a well-moisturized face and a base layer of foundation. Once your skin is prepped, pinpoint those key areas where natural light hits: the tops of your cheekbones, the bridge of your nose, your cupid's bow, and the inner corners of your eyes. Using a makeup brush, sponge, or your fingertips, apply the highlighter with a gentle touch. Begin with a small amount, gradually building up if needed. For the tops of your cheekbones, sweep the highlighter towards your temples to enhance your bone structure. Add a subtle amount to the bridge of your nose and a touch to your cupid's bow for a radiant smile. Illuminate your eyes by applying a small amount to the inner corners. Ensure a seamless finish by blending the highlighter into your skin, steering clear of harsh lines. When using a cream highlighter or liquid highlighter, consider setting it with a translucent powder.
