If Lakmé Fashion Week S/R 2017 taught us a makeup lesson, it is that strobing has conquered the beauty world. Highlighted skin is now every woman’s go-to makeup look be it during the day or evening. But can you highlight your face even if you don’t have a highlighter? Hell yeah! Here are 3 easy-peasy ways to highlight your face...
 

Use a lighter shade of concealer

A lighter concealer is a makeup faux pas but not when it’s used as a highlighter. So if you have that concealer that was far too light for your complexion, you can totally use it as a highlighter on the high points of your face. Just use a stick concealer and take some product on a brush. Apply it below your brow bone, on your cheekbones, under your eyes, in the corners of your eyes and lightly, on top of your cupid’s bow to ensure that your face looks dewy.

Can’t seem to find the right highlighter? No worries! Instead, just use a pearl coloured or ivory-toned eye shadow to strobe your face. These work well, especially if they’re pigmented enough and also come with a hint of shimmer in them. We told you—makeup was all about playing it smart.

Want to know what’s another way of using a blush? As a highlighter! If you happen to have a pale pink blush with champagne undertones, it might just work perfectly as a highlighter. Sure, it’ll be more of an evening look but this one’s just what you need for a no—makeup makeup kinda strobed look.
