Maskcara Beauty Illuminators: Creams vs. Powders

Are the cream or the powder Maskcara Beauty illuminators better? Each type has it’s pros. There is really no cons. Like all of maskcara beauty products, the illuminator you choose will be customized to you. You will base your decision off of your style and makeup goals. Before we dig into cream vs powder, lets quickly talk about what illuminators do for you.

Maskcara Beauty illuminators are what is known as highlighter in the outside beauty industry. The glow you see primarily on top of the cheekbones of all your favorite instagram and youtube stars. But what is the reason?

Illuminators are designed to bring an added lift to the areas that you place it. This is due to the science that light colors draw forward and dark colors shadow, or draw back. By placing a light, shimmy color on the high points of your face, you are bouncing light off of these areas that gives you a lift and gorgeous glow.

If you are into the extreme, over the top, glamorous glow, then you will most likely love the powder illuminators. There are 5 gorgeous shades to choose from.

• Georgia– Georgia is on our mind, and it’s easy to see why! Southern charm meets warm sunshine with this rose gold shimmer that gives your complexion the perfect sun-kissed glow.
