It’s Favorites Friday!!
All the hot bronzers, highlighters and shimmer powders on the beauty market have 46-year-old me groaning. Middle-aged ladies generally have fine (if not medium to deep) lines to worry about and bringing attention to them is not what we want. In addition, many of them have so much glitter content it looks like we’re sadly trying to recapture our clubbing days.
Imagine my surprise when I tested out Avon’s True Color Moonlit Highlighting Powder! It provides an all over glow without making me look like a 20-year-old glitter queen! This magic product makes me look like I have dewy, youthful skin!
I have used the highlighting powder in Quartz every day for several months and consider it one of my newest secret weapons! If you haven’t checked out my selfie posts, go check them out to see for yourself how it lights up my face without making it look like I’m trying too hard!
Using a powder brush, I dust the powder on the tops of my cheeks, down the slope of my nose and in opposite half crescents around the sides of my face from my temples to just below my ear.
End result: Hello, gorgeous!

I do have a bronzer that works well for me. It’s from Urban Decay. I don’t use it frequently, only when I am going out at nights so I wouldn’t call it a secret weapon but I do like it. It’s my very first bronzer, never even heard of such things before I had my make-up professionally done for my wedding. I am happy I am now hip to the game though.

I suspect bronzers work for your skin tone how highlighters work for mine – they brighten your face up?

They do! Are they one and the same? Highlighters and bronzers?

No, they are slightly different, but in the same “family”. Bronzers are darker and are used to give a sun kissed glow to the skin. Highlighters brighten the face by adding a dewy shine.
