Incredible highlighter for a natural look.

Liquid Highlighter For Deep Skin Tones
“The formula is thin and spreads easily and melts into the skin. The color Fair is a peachy/salmon shade. I'm a light-medium skin, so don't think that this shade would work for fair skins, but for a light skin tone it gives a nice brightening effect with light coverage that is fairly undetectable in person”
