| IT Cosmetics Hello Light Anti-Aging Creme Illuminator and Heavenly Luxe Pointed Precision Complexion Brush |
What a way to enhance your bone structure than with a bit
of gleaming radiance aimed at a few choice spots? Once again, I have IT
Cosmetics to thank for developing their Hello Light Anti-Aging Creme
Illuminator and Heavenly Luxe Pointed Precision
Complexion Brush because this pairing that I received to review is all you need to achieve a bit of
instant glamour!
This lightweight cream formula is so skin pampering with anti-aging properties from hydrolyzed collagen, peptides, vitamins A,
C, E, grapeseed, green tea, hyaluronic filling spheres, silk, and
aloe. As glorious as those ingredients sound, this illuminator has a special edge with its drops of light technology incorporated inside to unleash a look of brightness to blur fine lines.
Due to their ingenious light refracting microspheres, the
brightness seems to originate from within like you turned on some inner switch
to flood your face with pure pale silvery-golden beige light whether you wear it
with other makeup or alone.
I found applying the cream in a C shape, starting at my
temples and then extending out to the tops of my cheekbones gave my face
noticeable impact without glitter or shimmer–only that beaming soft
light. The look was not greasy. Instead, my dry complexion
gained a lovely dewiness that stayed pretty until I had to cleanse it off along
with the rest of my makeup.
By the way, the angled tip of their Heavenly Luxe
Pointed Precision Complexion Brush was fantastic for using with this cream
illuminator. The bristles on this brush head are very soft and mega
dense to make quick work with a few artful sweeps.
Here’s a makeup trick for using this illuminator on your
nose, if you want to slim or straighten it. Dab on a straight line down
the length of your nose to create an illusion of a straighter or slimmer
nose. You will be surprised at how well the product reflects light to help
you achieve that straighter bone structure. However, be careful when
blending into your foundation because you need to maintain that perfect line if
you intend to pull this off.

Another makeup tip I want to share is using this precision
brush when doing a smoky eye. Though it may appear larger than a typical
eye shadow brush, this precision brush was wonderful when it came to blending for this look. Dip this brush in your eye shadow in an arch shape above the
crease and then blend down toward the lash line before lining with a black kohl eyeliner
pencil. Use your regular eye shadow brush to work your slightly darker shade along
your lower lash line. Finish with your lighter tone powder near the inner
corners of your eyes and then bring out the mascara.
I highly recommend checking out the Hello Light
Anti-Aging Creme Illuminator and Heavenly Luxe Pointed Precision
Complexion Brush, especially if you have dry skin and have had issues with
powder illuminizers.
You get to pick up both products at QVC for just $35 or
separately at IT Cosmetics.
