This week’s question comes to us from Miss Little Miss Glow. We’ve all got a big of J-Lo glow envy… so now’s the time to learn how to do something about it…especially with Summer just around the corner.
Little Miss Glow’s Question: How do I get a nice glow on my skin, especially for the summer
Angelique’s Answer: First and foremost the most important thing is skincare and prep. Moisturize your skin first thing in the morning. I love massaging the moisturizer into my skin using my fingertips, my favorite is the moisturizer from Embryolisse. I then like to apply a good tinted moisturizer onto my skin with a fluffy kabuki brush. My current addiction is Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetic’s tinted moisturizer. After, I love to use a highlighter in my t-zone (forehead, bridge of nose, chin, etc.) and cheek bones. You can use a product in liquid or a powder form but for a more dewy finish especially in the summer, I opt for a liquid. Currently I’m using NARS’ liquid illuminator in Copacabana. I like to apply it with a small fluffy blending brush (one that you normally use to blend your eyeshadow) for a more airbrushed finish. The biggest thing is to explore different products and have fun!!!
