So my make routine is basic just primer, foundation, eyeshadow, eyeliner & of course mascara. My skin tone is medium tan I'd say I'm not to dark or light either, so I was wondering what could I do to give myself some glow? Oh & also what lipsticks would yall recommend? Thanks girlys 🎀

For a really nice glow try the Too Faced Soul Mates blush bronzer! Very light sweep on the product and then light application so you don't look burnt. I LOVE ABH Liquid Lipsticks, Jeffree Star Cosmetics makes a+++ sticks but are almost always gone, and Lime Crime is great for that as well. My all-time favorite lip color is MAC Cyber. Try contouring and highlighting! NYX has a great palette.

You could always use a highlighter to give yourself a glow, I like the NYX Illuminator in Ritualistic, or a bronzer for a more bronzed look.

For lipsticks I definitely recommend MAC Pink Plaid and Viva Glam 1, Lorac Alter Ego Lipstick in Free Spirit, NARS Satin Lip Pencil in Rikugien, and Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipstick in Poe (:

I think a little bronzer and a highlight would help! I really like too faced candle light glow! It's two toned so you have options in that sense, I just sweep some on top of my cheek bones and on the top of my nose and it's a great subtle glow!

It sound like your face is 'flat' add bronzer or sculping powder and highlight. For lipstick I would suggest using Mac velvet teddy, it's pinkish nude that suits medium and fair skin tones

I actually just bought Ellis Faas Glow Up in Deep Bronze and love it. It literally gives you a glow as opposed to a harsh highlight. It's more on the bronzey side which will look great for the summer. I wound up ordering Satin Glow because I love it that much. I second the suggestion for MAC velvet teddy but it's a matte finish. Another great find that I recently discovered is Marc Jacobs New Nudes Sheer Lip Gel in Anais.
