 Are you looking for something that will leave your skin defined and flawless with a summer-like glow?

Take your beauty routine to new dimensions by adding the subtle use of bronzers and highlighters to define your features and bring on the glow.

 Recently, I did makeup for a photo shoot with Jean Marc photo. Our muse for the day was TED Talks branding baddie, Dr. Talaya Waller. I was inspired by her beautiful coco skin to dive into some of my favorite beauty trends: decadently defined cheeks, feathery lashes, and a gorgeous golden highlight that would bring Apollo the Greek god of light to his knees.

 The beauty look is super easy and you can get this gorgeous look at home by adding three simple steps to your existing beauty routine. After filling Talaya’s brows, I applied a wash of eye color and foundation. I amped up her beauty look with the following steps: 

Step 1:

Apply a cream bronzer in the motion of creating a backwards “3” on both sides of your face to sculpt and define your features. Your "3" should begin mid forehead and end mid chin on both sides of the face. Using a small amount of product, buff in a powder bronzer in the motion of a backwards "3" on both sides of the face to blend both products seamlessly into the skin.

 Step 2:

To bring on the glow, apply a gorgeous golden highlight using a fan brush on your cheekbones. To apply like a pro, hold your fan brush on an angle and apply product to cheekbones in short back and forth motions. When finished, pinch the hairs of your fan brush and sweep the excess highlighter down the bridge of your nose.

 Step 3:

To finish your look apply a pair of wispy mink eyelashes to further accentuate your features. I applied Quon's Eyes 3D mink lash in style Ravishing.
