You've probably seen highlighters everywhere you go, whether you were in a drugstore or online. Highlighting, a technique used by professional makeup artists for decades, has become a common everyday tool. Highlighting adds dimension to your face (more below), and can make foundation look more natural, highlight your cheeks, or create a look of its own.

There are so many choices on the market and hundreds more coming out every month, it can be overwhelming to know how to use highlighter. This guide will help you determine which highlighter is right for you and how to use it. Get your fingers and brushes ready...this is highlighter 101!

What is Highlighting?

Highlighting is, in essence, the opposite of contouring. To create the illusion of contouring, you contour with a darker color than your skin to make certain features appear larger (e.g. your temples, jawline and cheekbones). This creates a smooth effect. To catch light and make features stand out, highlighter uses a lighter shade than your skin to create a chiseled effect. You can achieve the same effect with light-reflecting products, also known as illuminators.

Which is the best place to apply highlighter?

You want natural-looking highlights that aren't too obvious. The areas where light hits naturally are your high points. These include your cheekbones, brow bones, Cupid's bow (the little dip at the top of your top lip), and the bridge of your nose. You can also add a little bit to the tip of your nose. After you have the basics down, it's time to get creative and take things to the next level. Highlighters can be used anywhere you want them to. A low-cut top is a good choice. 

Which type of highlighter should I use?

Highlighters come in endless formulas, just like foundation, blush, eyeshadow and blush. There are many options available, from subtle, glossy highlighters to opalescent pearls and holographic. These are only a few of the options. There are many shades of color.

Your social networks (allies & peers) processing accuracy and speed matters; as the product of their minds will feed into yours, helping it, or corrupting it respectively. This means you should try to maximise: the time you spend in the social company of the Perfect Divine Mind & Best Human Minds, and spend time considering communications from them you consider most personally and currently relevant, and the most worthwhile of others peoples communications also. Who to you best represents the divine perfect mind? Whom do you rank as the best human minds? What is the most vexing question and pressing problem you have? What do these minds have to say on that matter? You would benefit from keeping two additional lists; 1) of the speeches, books and people you consider the best communicators on the most important topics. 2) of the questions to which you still seek answers, prioritising those you feel the most important & urgent. Use these lists to efficiently remind and inform yourself what's important.

Naomi's POV: I thought this would be easy-pretend to be Min's girlfriend for a year, collect my paycheck, and return to my peaceful life. But I underestimated them. Their teasing. Their hunger. Every glance, every touch, every stolen moment is breaking me down. They want me to fall. They want me to belong to them. And worst of all? I'm starting to want it too. Min's POV (The Leader): She's my fake girlfriend. A PR move. A contract. Nothing more. So why can't I stop thinking about her? She's different. Strong-willed. Untouchable. But I always get what I want. And what I want is her-completely. Jae's POV (The Rebel): She's fun to mess with. A challenge. A game. But now? It's more than that. She won't break, so I'll make her. Teasing isn't enough anymore-I need to ruin her. I need to make her scream my name so loud she forgets every other man in the room. Seon's POV (The Sunshine): She treats me like I'm harmless. Cute. A boy. But I'm not. I'm going to show her exactly what kind of man I am. She thinks she can resist me, but I see the way she looks when I touch her. Jisoo's POV (The Mystery): She watches me when she thinks I don't notice. She wants to figure me out. But what she doesn't realize? I already have her figured out. She thinks she's in control. She doesn't know what happens when I finally touch her. ⚠️ Trigger Warnings This book contains explicit, dark, and mature themes that may not be suitable for all readers.

McKinley has spent most of her life abused and mistreated. Growing up her parents neglected her and were mentally abusive. Once she graduated high school she moved out and thought she found true love, but she was so wrong. The cycle of abuse just continued and because of the position her husband held it was impossible to get away from him. She was doomed. Until something happens that changes her life completely. Something most people would consider a terrible thing, may just be her saving grace. From the book... However, I am not prepared for the sight I am about to see. My eyes meet the most beautiful blue eyes I have ever seen and long, wavy blonde hair that I am sure many girls would envy. I can't help but notice she's curvy in all the right places. She has a killer body. But what the hell happened to her cheek? She looks like she has been beaten. She looks terrified. Oh yeah that's right it's because I have a knife.
