How to choose the best illuminator?
The best illuminator is the one that best suits your makeup style. In order not to be in doubt, there is no way, you need to test several types until you find the most suitable one.
But some tips can help you to know and choose:
Discover your skin type
Knowing if your skin is normal, dry, oily or mixed helps to buy the product with the correct texture, which can improve the final result.
For example, people with mixed to oily skin should opt for powdered products and avoid creamy ones. In addition, these are good lighting options for beginners, as they are easy to apply.
Dry skin, on the other hand, requires more creamy or liquid products, although it can also receive stick or powder products, which are versions suitable for mixed or normal skin.
Set the tone
Once you’ve found the ideal type of illuminator for your skin, it’s time to think about color.
The most pearly and pink are indicated for light skins. Golden tones combine with dark skin and bronze and copper tones look beautiful on black skin.
And there are also colorless or champagne-colored illuminators, which are very wild and highlight all skins.
But these are just tips and don’t need to be followed to the letter. The most important thing is that you feel good about your makeup.
