FAQs

What makes a good highlighter brush? A highlighter brush is typically tapered, fan-shaped, or dome-tipped to provide precision and control. These shapes help dust shimmer exactly where you want it—along cheekbones, brow bones and the cupid's bow—without overloading the skin. Look for soft bristles that offer a light touch and blend seamlessly.

Can I use other brushes for highlighting? Technically yes, but a dedicated highlighter brush is designed to enhance the glow without disrupting your base makeup. A blusher brush may apply too much product, while an eyeshadow brush may lack the reach. For the best results, pair a proper highlighter brush with your favourite highlighter makeup.

How do I achieve a natural glow? Sweep the highlighter brush gently through your product and tap off the excess. Apply with a light hand to areas where light naturally hits the face. For a more diffused look, blend the edges with a clean makeup sponge or a fluffy brush to avoid harsh lines.
