Collection: Highlighters

For a natural-looking glow, apply your highlighter to the high points of your face where light naturally catches. Focus on the tops of your cheekbones, the bridge of your nose, your cupid's bow, and the inner corners of your eyes. Use a fan brush for a diffused powder finish, or your fingertips to warm the product and press it into skin for a more melted, second-skin glow.

* Malkn Tip: For the perfect ‘glass skin’ look, apply highlighter after your blush, not before. Make sure to slowly build the glow, rather than using a lot of product at once.

In Korean makeup, there's no single correct place to apply highlighter, but it all depends on the look you want to create. Rather than aiming for an intense shine, K-Beauty uses highlighters to enhance natural glow. The most popular placement techniques include: 

• The front of the cheeks: Instead of highlighting only the outer cheekbones, Korean makeup often places highlighter on the fuller, front part of the cheeks. 
• The aegyo-sal (under-eye area): A light touch of highlighter on the natural pocket of fullness beneath the lower lash line brightens the eyes, making them appear bigger and more youthful. 
• The bridge and tip of the nose: A fine sweep down the centre of the nose, finished with a tiny touch on the tip, creates the illusion of a slimmer, more refined nose.

Powder highlighters, like the Laka Dreambeam Highlighter, are ideal for normal, combination, or oily skin, as their fine-milled pigments diffuse light evenly without adding extra moisture or slip. Cream and liquid highlighters tend to suit drier skin types better, melting into the skin for a dewier finish, although they can be trickier to control over oily areas as the day goes on.

The Laka Dreambeam Highlighter is formulated to deliver a transparent, ultra-luminous "dream-glow radiance". Instead of sitting heavily on the skin or leaving harsh, metallic streaks, this high-performance powder glides on effortlessly to provide a clean, starlit reflection. Infused with moisturising ingredients, it softly diffuses across the contours of your face.

The best Laka Dreambeam Highlighter shade depends on both your skin tone and the type of glow you want to achieve. Natural Beam is a soft champagne shade that flatters light to medium skin tones and is the best choice if you're looking for a natural, everyday glow. Pink Beam features a delicate rosy shimmer that beautifully complements fair skin and cool undertones, adding a fresh, healthy-looking radiance. Water Beam has cool, translucent pearl reflections that create an ethereal, glass-like glow. It works particularly well on light to medium skin tones and is ideal if you prefer a fresh, luminous finish over a warm golden highlight.

* Malkn Tip: Unlike foundation, highlighter doesn't need to match your skin tone exactly. Choose the one that you think best complements your features.
