Makeup Shortcuts: metallic Lipstick doubles as a cream Highlighter

Yup, that’s lipstick
You’ve most likely heard of the lipstick-as-blush trick, however did ya understand that you can utilize a metallic lipstick as a cream highlighter?

Yeah! You totes can. as well as considering that metallic lips are having a moment, you may have a tube of metallic lipstick sitting around. If you do, you can apply a bit to your upper cheekbones, or anywhere on your deal with that you want to highlight, as well as blend the edges with a brush, sponge or finger.

Blend it!
Sometimes I’ll run a finger across the top of my metallic lippie a few times, then carefully dab that on my upper cheekbones (gently so I don’t interrupt my bronzer/blush/foundation).

Or often I’ll g-e-n-t-l-y dab the tube directly on my skin, however when I do that…no matter exactly how cautious I am, there’s still a higher possibility of inadvertently shifting whatever makeup I’m using under it.

This shortcut works especially well with gold, increased gold as well as silver metallics! try it sometime when you’re in the mood for a glossy cheek highlight.
