Behind this anglicism hides a cosmetic product much appreciated to enhance and restore light to dull dyes. Literally signifying “highlights”, the highlighter has the function of putting light at the level of the complexion, and can be presented in different forms and textures: fluid, cream or powder, as well as under different shades. It is at its pearl content, on which the light is reflected, that we owe this light effect sublimating the dyes made dull by fatigue, pollution or even everyday stress.
To be completely precise, we talk about highlighter when the product is applied by touches to certain precise areas of the face, like the cheekbones for example, in order to intensify the light in these places. In the case of localized use, the choice of a powder texture is relatively suitable. Conversely, if you want to illuminate the whole face, as a makeup base for example, it can be relevant to use the cream or fluid. As for the colors and colors available, there are white, beige, rosé or golden highlighters.
