Cheekbone Highlighting Guide

Cheekbone highlighting creates beautiful dimension and catches light. Here's how to do it right.

1

Find Your Cheekbones

Suck in your cheeks. The raised area above the hollow is your cheekbone.

2

Apply in a C Shape

Sweep highlighter in a C shape from cheekbone toward the temple.

3

Blend Edges

Blend the edges of highlighter so it fades naturally into skin.

4

Build Intensity

Start with a little and build up. You can always add more.

5

Consider Your Lighting

The same highlight looks different in different lighting. Adjust accordingly.
