What is the golden highlight trend?
Girls who love a blinding highlight, gear up to welcome the golden highlighter trend. This makeup trend involves using a bright gold highlight on the high points of your face. Certainly not for the faint hearted, the golden highlighter is your makeup must-have if you’ve been the ballsy makeup wearer all along. Vampy lips, graphic liner and clumpy lashes—if you have a history of attempting daring trends like these, the golden highlighter trend might just be right up your alley!
Know your skin tones
We get it—you might be unsure of using a golden highlighter on your fair skin. But to make sure it doesn’t look as jarring, go with a champagne gold highlight that will complement your skin tone. If you’re a medium skin tone, find a highlighter that’s rose gold or something that’s not too bright yet not too light! But for those of you with a deeper skin tone, the bright yellow gold highlight is exactly for your skin tone as it stands out and looks sexy as ever on deep skin tones.
Get the golden glow
If you don’t wish to invest in a golden highlighter, no problem at all! Most of us have a golden eyeshadow that can easily be used as a highlight. If you’re looking for one that’s affordable and impactful, go with the Lakmé 9to5 Eye Quartet Eye Shadow, Tanjore Rush. This one has the most gorgeous gold amongst 3 other shades. Use a fan brush to apply it on the high points of your face.
