What Else You Need to Know: No glitter. Just glow. Highlighting hits a new high with NARS’s Highlighting Powder. This uncompromising innovation delivers next-level luminosity with Seamless Glow Technology—a blend of sheer powders and pearls to create second-skin luster that blends effortlessly.
For Subtle Glow:
-Use a dome-style brush to dust Highlighting Powder along the cheekbone and blend toward the hairline with emphasis on the high point of the cheek.
For Instant All-Over Glow:
-Use a contour brush to apply Highlighting Powder to tops of cheekbones.
-Use tip of brush to sweep down center of the nose and lightly brush onto the Cupid’s bow.
-To dial up the glow, apply in a C shape from the cheekbone, blending above the brow bone, then apply the remainder below the brow bone.
For Sculpted Glow:
-Use a wet, flat, angular brush to apply Highlighting Powder over tops of cheekbones in a targeted back and forth motion.
-Apply NARS Bronzing Powder (sold separately) in the shape of the number three: under cheekbones, along hairline and along jawline to create dimension.
NARS Technique:
-Contour: Create definition by starting at the temple and sweeping along the hairline, under the cheekbone, and down the jawline.
-Highlight: Glide over areas where the sun hits naturally—the tops of the cheekbones, on temples, and on the bridge of the nose.
-Pop: Swipe color onto the apples of the cheeks and swirl in a circular motion, layering to your desired intensity.
