ic y highlights
For a more modern take on a classic highlight, stay away from beachy, golden hues and try cooler, icier tones instead. ‘Cooler-toned highlights refract the light more than sunny, warm incarnations to mimic a backlit glow,’ says Andrew. For placement, start with the C-shape from the brow bone on to the cheekbone. Take tips from the pros and build up in light, strategic layers, opting for cream and liquid illuminators. As make-up maven Mark Carrasquillo put it backstage at Etro, ‘The trend is for a real, beautifying glow. This is not highlighter that looks obvious, powdery and cheap; it’s angelic skin.’
