4 Places to Wear Highlighter

The body gloss I use for photoshoots, on vacation, and with warm weather outfits: St. Tropez finishing gloss from Nordstrom’s beauty collection. My photographer Alicia brought this stuff to Cabo with us this year and I loved it! It’s a no-commitment wash-off formula that gives your skin instant high shine and a little bit of color. It was perfect for the beach and pool (especially for when we were shooting), but I also love wearing it on my legs and arms when going out at night.

Other body parts to highlight other than your face & how:

• Legs: Highlight a straight line down the center of your shins and thighs to make them not only look slimmer, but to give them a natural glow.
• Collarbone: Apply the gloss along the clavicle bone and use a powder brush to apply a powder highlight on top in horizontal sweeping motions.
• Shoulders: Apply the gloss in circular motions to the high points of your shoulders – the place where light naturally hits.
• Face: I always highlight with a skinny powder brush along the bridge of my nose and the tops of my cheeks up by my eyes.

For my tan, I typically get spray tans. But in-between appointments, I use the St. Tropez self tan express body mist from Nordstrom, and I love the color. I’ve also been meaning to try the self-tan body lotion that gradually builds a healthy looking tan that suits your skin tone.

I love this little Alice and Olivia sequin dress from Nordstrom. Perfect for a spring or summer wedding, or any special event you have coming up this year! These pictures were taken at one of Chicago’s hidden gems – the speakeasy behind Bodega Imports coffee shop. Thanks for stopping by, happy sunday!!
