FAVORITE: HIGHLIGHTERS

If I had to choose a certain makeup product that I'm obsessed with at the moment (let's be honest, I've been obsessed with highlighters for pretty much over a year now)...it's HIGHLIGHTERS!

I looooooove the glowy, youthful look highlighters give you (NOT the "disco ball face "look). They're perfect for all year round, not just the summer, BUT, I especially love wearing them in the fall and winter when you can't really go outside and catch some of the suns "glowy" rays. It just brings your skin back to life during the cold seasons! 

Highlighters come in different colors from golden bronze shades, opal shades to rose-y pink shades, making them very versatile to fit anyone's skin tone or if you're like me, I like to try all of the different shades. Here's a few of my favorite highlighters that I like to use on a daily basis:
