Liquid illuminators, the secret for a natural and radiant glow in any look. Their fluid texture allows an easy and modulable application, adapting to all skin types for an effortless luminous finish. Perfect for blending with foundation or applying to strategic points such as cheekbones, nose and Cupid's bow, these highlighters provide a customized glow effect. Available in satin, pearl or high-shine finishes, there are options for every occasion. At Maquillalia, you will find high quality liquid highlighters, from subtle formulas to stunning effects, discover yours and give a touch of light to your makeup with a professional finish!
Liquid highlighters are super versatile and can elevate any look if combined correctly with other products. Here are some ways to use them and expert tips for a flawless, luminous finish.
Mixed with foundation: For a natural glow effect, mix a drop of liquid highlighter with your foundation. This adds luminosity without losing coverage. Try W7's famous drops for a subtle, elegant glow.
On skin before foundation: Applying a few drops to the high points of the face before foundation creates a glow that seems to come from within. Use illuminating drops such as Lumi Glotion by Loreal Paris.
On top of foundation at key points: Diffuse highlighter with fingers or a sponge on cheekbones, nose and Cupid's bow. Use highlighters like the one from Saigu Cosmetics and for a more defined finish, use a small brush like the ones from Corazona.
Combined with powder highlighters: Blend a little powder highlighter for a shimmering effect or apply it on the tear trough to open up the look.
Fuller lips: Apply a small amount to the center of the lip over gloss or matte lipstick for a fuller lip effect.
Liquid highlighters not only add dramatic shine, but may also include ingredients that benefit the skin. Knowing their formula will help you choose the right one for your skin type and desired finish.
Moisturizing formulas: Many liquid highlighters contain hyaluronic acid and glycerin, ingredients that keep skin fresh and prevent makeup from cracking. They are perfect for dry or mature skin.
Durability and hold: To make your highlighter last longer, look for formulas with fixative polymers or light silicones, which adhere better to the skin without losing intensity.
Vegan and cruelty-free highlighters: Brands such as Revolution, NYX or Wibo offer cruelty-free options without animal ingredients, ideal for those looking for a more ethical makeup.
Texture and applicators: There are liquid illuminators with dropper dispenser, cushion format or sponge applicator. The dropper ones are ideal for mixing with foundation, while the sponge ones facilitate a more precise application.
Skin type suitability: If you have oily skin, choose highlighters with a light texture and satin finish, without heavy oils. For dry skin, look for formulas with moisturizing extracts that provide a healthy glow without drying.
The liquid highlighter is ideal for dry, normal or mature skin, as its fluid texture blends into the skin without leaving fine lines or drying it out. It is also perfect for those looking for a more natural and juicy effect. For oily skin, it is recommended to set it with translucent powder to avoid excess shine.
To prolong its duration, apply a setting primer before makeup and blend the highlighter with a damp sponge or synthetic brush to better set it. If you want more hold, seal with a powder highlighter in the same shade and finish with a setting spray.
Yes! Mixing a few drops of liquid highlighter with foundation creates a natural glow effect without the need to apply extra highlighter. It's perfect for a fresh, radiant look without excess shine. For a more blended effect, mix with a BB Cream or tinted moisturizer.
For a subtle and even result, apply a few drops on the high points of the face (cheekbones, nose, Cupid's bow and eyebrows) and blend with your fingers, brush or sponge. For a more integrated effect, apply before foundation or mix with your moisturizer.
