Liquid Gold Highlighters

Bobbi Brown's 'All Over Glow' is Made with Squalane to Increase Hydration

American beauty brand Bobbi Brown recently came out with a new product that's called 'All Over Glow,' due to its impressive ability to deeply hydrate the skin, while providing it with a healthy but statement-worthy shimmer at the same time.

To ensure that the product hydrates the skin, Bobbi Brown uses the key ingredient squalane, which is said to mimic the moisture in the body. Makeup artist Amy Conway further explained this by saying that all skin types can use the highlighter, however she advises that those with naturally oily skin consolidate the product to the high points of their face to avoid looking too shiny. Additionally, the makeup artist says that the highlighter works on all skin tones, as it's made to blend in seamlessly.
