International MUA tells us how to nail the biggest beauty trend of 2018

We’re all about the glow.

To be honest, we’re all about glowing skin 24/7 but the summer months definitely allow for more freedom with highlighter, bronzer and the likes.

The trick, however, is finding that perfect balance between shine you can see from space and an ethereal glow.

With that in mind, we got some expert advice on how to get this right because let’s be honest, highlighter can go seriously wrong.

SJ Froom is an international makeup artist for Bare Minerals and with over twenty years experience, she knows exactly what she’s talking about.

She tells us that this summer, “it’s all-go-for-glow with dewy, glossy, glass-like skin”.

As most beauty addicts will be aware, the skincare industry in Korean is absolutely booming with some women using up to ten complexion-perfecting essences and masks per night.

It’s no surprise then that everyone wants to get in on this particular trend and thankfully there are a few products that can help along the way.

SJ tells us that “bareMinerals Complexion Rescue Tinted Hydrating Gel Cream” is key for a natural yet flawless base and to set, it’s best to use “a finishing powder like the bareMinerals Illuminating Mineral Veil”.

The idea behind this powder is that it will lock your look in without leaving a flat, matte finish so your skin can breathe and you’re getting that elusive glow.

The hero product here though has to be the latest launch from the brand, bareMinerals Limited-Edition Crystalline Glow Highlighter and Bronze Palette

SJ recommends using this in the “highest areas of the face” – your forehead, bridge of nose, and cheekbones.

Sweep it up to your temples and there you have it, glowy, dewy skin is yours and best of all is the fact that it takes less than five minutes.
