The catastrophe of Tabby, prince of Novato
Act III, Scene I
Enter prince Tabby, Queen Karen, Left turn the Black Cat, Thug the Russian Blue as well as Lords.
TABS: To highlight or not to highlight — that is the question.
Whether ’tis nobler in the condo to experience the humiliating family pets as well as chin scratches of outrageous fortune, or to raise paws against a sea of troubles, as well as by opposing, end them. To eat, to nap — perchance to dream; ay, there’s the stomach rub.
Wait, what the heck is prince Tabby speaking about!? I don’t understand about him, however speaking for myself, there is absolutely NO concern about it. I am always, always down for highlighting, as well as right here are my five top picks for “Best Highlighter.” These are the ones I wear the most.
Best daily Highlighter: hourglass Ambient Powder in luminous Light ($45)
It’s incredible to me exactly how this champagne pearl pressed powder barely appears like I’ve made a dent in it, when I’ve been using it quite consistently — often for weeks on end — for the past few years.

That’s a quite great thing to know, that a single pan of anything might last up until forever, or up until Skynet ultimately takes over (whichever comes first).
What I like about luminous Light — I mean, other than the name, since don’t a lot of gals like the concept of being bathed in luminous light? — is the finish. On the skin it appears like expensive, luxurious velvet bathed in the light of a buttery late summertime afternoon.
Ah …

The sheen is unlike anything else I’ve seen before. Soft as well as subtle, yet still noticeable, as well as it’s oh, so forgiving of big pores as well as fine lines (hallelujah!).
All told, this one’s my preferred everyday, all-occasion highlighter in the world!
$45; offered now at hourglass counters as well as online.
Best Highlighter for a Dewy Finish: MAC cream Colour Base in Hush ($22)
Hush!
No, you can talk. I was referring to MAC Hush, which I like for its flexibility. It’s a soft peach with subtle shimmer, as well as I like it just about any type of which way/any exactly how — on bare skin, on top of tinted moisturizer, foundation, even on top of powder. Whenever I’m aiming for a lot more of a dewy, wet look, out comes Hush.
All I do is utilize my fingers to apply as well as blend it, normally on my upper cheekbones, down the bridge of my nose as well as on my Cupid’s bow, as well as it takes all however a minute to use.
I likewise believe it looks amazer-ing in pics.
Åh! — as well as you can likewise utilize it as an eyeshadow base. Score!

Best Highlighter for remarkable Looks: BECCA Shimmering Skin Perfector pressed in Opal ($38)
Good ol’ Opal. exactly how lots of pans of it have I gone with over the years?
Tre? Four…? I’ve lost count.
BECCA has lots of marvelous Shimmering Skin Perfector pressed options, however Opal is the one I wear most, by far. It’s a incredibly shiny golden opal pearl, as well as for remarkable highlights, it’s unbeatable. Unlike standard-issue high-shine highlighters, of which there are many, it’s the extremely meaning of luminous, as well as the total antithesis of extreme as well as metallic, so skin glows seemingly from within with wonderful eldritch power without appearing oily.
It’s so friggin’ great that when I had to pick a single highlighter to wear on the red carpet to the Emmy’s last year, I went with Opal. There was no concern about it.
Fun tip: to open up the eyes as well as make them look as big, bright as well as large as possible, lightly apply Opal in the inner corners of the eyes, as well as just above as well as below the greatest point in the arch of your brows.
$38; offered now at Ulta, BECCA counters as well as online.
Best Highlighter to wear With Pink Blush: Smashbox combination Soft Lights in Baked Starblush ($32)
This quiet, subtle pearlescent pink powder is my “halfway” highlighter. Shinier than hourglass luminous Light however less shiny than BECCA Opal, Baked Starblush comes out whenever I wear a pink blush, since I believe it looks incredible with warm, awesome as well as neutral pink blushes.
$32; offered now at Ulta, Smashbox counters as well as online.
Best Highlighter for Multitasking MAC Iridescent Powder/Loose in golden Bronze as well as Silver Dusk ($23 each)
Sadly (horrifically), these were discontinued right here in the us (WHY, MAC, WHY?!?!), however I had to provide them a shout-out anyway since I believe they’re so damn good.
You may still be able to discover them outside the united states (or, maybe be able to track them down on eBay), as well as if you do, think about yourself lucky, since these powders are epically wonderful.
I discovered out about them from MAC senior artist as well as all-around incredible feline womaN Keri Blair, som påpekte en dag som hun utnyttet dem hele tiden for brude utseende. Hun kalte dem hennes unsung helter fra linjen.
SOOOOOOO, neste dag gikk jeg ut så vel som fått dem begge, lol! Silver Dusk er et glimrende, Silvery Pinkish Beige (flott for kjøligere hudtoner), så vel som Golden Bronze er en Peachy Golden Bronze (ser forbauselsballer på varm hud). I utgangspunktet er disse som løse pulverversjoner av Becca-skinnende hudpresentorer, men med en enda mye mer nyansert pearlescent finish.
En teeny, liten bit går langt! Jeg liker å bruke dem med en konisk øyenskygge blanding ren som Mac 224, for presisjon.
Disse er mektige multitaskers også! For DEWY HUD, bare bland litt med grunnlaget eller tonet fuktighetskrem. Eller for en nydelig glans på armene dine, så vel som bena, dryss litt på en bluss av kroppsfukter eller kroppsolje, så vel som deretter massasje direkte på huden.

Rask (ikke-makeup) bekymring for deg …
Har du noen gang brukt airbnb.com, så vel som hvis du har, hadde du en flott eller dårlig opplevelse? Jeg har ikke utnyttet det før, men jeg tror på det for en kommende tur fordi, omg, hotellpriser? De er ute av freakin ‘kontroll!

Noen av stedene jeg ser på Airbnb ser virkelig fint ut. Jeg er bare engstelig for å leie et sted som ser fantastisk ut i bilder, men å ha det viser seg å være sketchy i ekte liv, vet du? Vennligst hjelp en feline kvinne ut! Jeg krever en kort ferie her ganske snart.
