Best highlighter for mature skin
Highlighter has become hugely famous in the past few years, adding a fully new category to complexion makeup. It is meant to give your face a fresh, dewy glow, but some highlighters are very smeared glitter on your face. The key is to look for one that has a super-fine micro-shimmer so you can glow and build your skin – a less-is-more prominent approach here.
Which higher will match my skin tone?
We are all about embracing the new trends and putting your spin on them, so if you feel like wearing a rainbow highlighter or one that looks like it is produced from real gold then glow for it! But if you are looking for a highlighter to complement your skin shade then forever go by our rule of thumb:
For pale and medium skin tones: Peachy and champagne shades work excellent – think rose gold too
For olive and dark skin tones: Gold and Bronze shades are your best friends
Types of highlighters
Mature highlighters come in powder, cream, and liquid formulas.
· Cream highlighters tend to be the most practical-looking because you use them with your fingers and it melts onto your skin.
· Liquid and powder highlighters tend to sit on top – that is not a bad thing; it just means that it is clearer
· Shimmery bronzers work remarkably as a highlighter, applied sparingly on the top points of the face or just on the cheekbones – not as an all-over color
Bear in mind that items labeled highlighter are usually used for targeting a specific area, while items labeled illuminator tend to be more buildable and are meant to provide you glowing skin all over.
How to pick the best highlighter for mature skin
§ If you are in your 40s or 50s, look for a mature highlighter with a creamy constancy. This makes sure perfect application and the right blend-ability without tugging your skin. That said, there is no serious rule that says you have to stick to a cream or liquid formula. You could go for a powder highlighter with a soft texture that does not settle into your fine wrinkles or lines.
§ We are sure a lot of you are alert that besides your skin type, it is vital to consider your skin tone as well. If certain highlighter shades look grey, ashy, or took dark on your skin, it is not the best color for you. While shades like peach and pink look amazing on light to medium complexion, ladies with darker skin tones could try bronze or copper.
§ You would not want a highlighter that creases or cakes. That is why forever look for a highlighter that has the best-staying powder. Some formulas are water-resistant, which is remarkable if you want your highlighter to stay put without smudging during humidity or rain.
§ You could also go for products with anti-aging vitamins, ingredients, and antioxidants that help slow down the aging process and keep your skin nourished.

Where to apply highlighter on your face
Where to use a highlighter depends on your facial features and face shape.

Experiment with applying mature highlighters to different areas until you find the best highlighter placement for your face.
How to remove the highlighter off the face?
