Revlon Photoready Skinlights highlighters

As I'm not a huge fan of heavy foundation or a very 'made up' look I prefer to have a more natural finish when it comes to my makeup. To compliment my tinted moisturiser I've tried various types of highlighters - mainly powder based - but find that they can sit heavily on the skin and give an unnatural look.

Recently I started using Revlon Photoready Skinlights and I have fallen in love!! The product comes in 4 shades to suit all different skintones and are designed to be used as a base for your makeup to illuminate and even out your skintone. However I also frequently use mine as a very simple and subtle liquid contouring product.

I own two shades - 'pink light' the lightest available and 'bronze light' the darkest available. Using the lighter shade I dab this onto cheekbones, down the centre of my nose, between my brows, along the arch of my lower brows and onto my chin. I dab the darker shade along my temples, below my hairline and beneath my cheekbones. I then gently buff it until it is blended for a natural glow.

For daytimes I use a little 'pink light' mixed with a my moisturiser to add a dewy glow to my skin when I feel a little dull. This also works well as a primer before applying your foundation over the top for a dewy but full-coverage look.

I'm completely sold with these products, the finish lasts all day and the product lasts for an absolute age as you really don't need to use very much at all.

I think they're a really fab alternative to powder highlighters :)
