Youngblood Light Reflecting Highlighter

Powder highlighter in 3 shades, from soft pearl to rich bronze

A highlighter puts the high points of the face in the spotlight: the cheekbones, brow bone, bridge of the nose and cupid's bow. This makes the face look fresher and gives it more dimension, even with a simple make-up look. A powder highlighter is also easy to dose and stays put nicely over foundation and powder.

The Youngblood Light Reflecting Highlighter is available at Glam Skin in 3 shades: Quartz, Aurora and Fiesta. It is a finely milled pressed powder that captures light and reflects it back, for a glow that seems to come from within. It contains no glitter, the texture is silky and weightless, and the sheen builds from subtle to radiant. Each compact contains 8 g.

Why choose the Youngblood Light Reflecting Highlighter?

The highlighter gives a soft-focus sheen that looks like radiant skin rather than loose particles. The formula is short and talc-free, with ethically sourced mica and lauroyl lysine for comfortable wear.

• Glow without glitter: finely milled powder with no visible particles
• Soft-focus finish that blends seamlessly into the skin
• Buildable, from a hint of sheen to a defined highlight
• Three shades for fair to deep skin
• Talc-free formula with mica and lauroyl lysine
• 8 g compact, easy to take with you

Find your ideal shade

The three shades differ mainly in warmth and depth. Choose a shade that is just a little lighter or warmer than your skin, so the sheen softly lights up rather than standing out.

• Quartz — soft, luminous pearl; mainly adds light and little colour, lovely on fair to medium skin
• Aurora — soft champagne with a peachy pearl; a versatile, warm glow for many skin tones
• Fiesta — rich bronze with a golden sheen; for tanned to deep skin or a bronzed summer look

How do you use a powder highlighter?

1. Finish your foundation, powder and any blush or bronzer first
2. Pick up a small amount of product with the YB7 Highlight Luxe Brush and tap off the brush
3. Apply the highlighter to the top of the cheekbones and blend towards the temples
4. Briefly touch up the brow bone, cupid's bow, bridge of the nose and inner corner of the eyes
5. Build up with a second layer if you want more sheen

Frequently asked questions

Which shade suits my skin?

Quartz looks most natural on fair to medium skin, Aurora works on many skin tones and Fiesta suits tanned to deep skin especially. Look at your undertone too: with a cool undertone Quartz often looks calmest, with a warm undertone Aurora or Fiesta.

What is the difference from the Pro Glow Crème Highlighter Stick?

The Light Reflecting Highlighter is a pressed powder that you apply with a brush and that sits beautifully over powdered skin. The Pro Glow Crème Highlighter Stick is a creamy stick with a more dewy sheen. Many people choose powder for combination skin and cream for drier skin.

Is there glitter in this highlighter?

No, the formula contains no glitter. The sheen comes from finely milled powder and light-reflecting particles, so it looks like radiant skin instead of sparkling.

Which brush should I use?

Youngblood recommends the YB7 Highlight Luxe Brush. With this brush you apply a thin layer precisely to the high points of the face and softly blend the edges.
