It's starting to get warm and I'm trying to figure out my summer routine. I am only interested in highlighting. so I have 2 questions:
1) is possible to just highlight without foundation
2) what is your warm weather routine

I use a Dior BB cream and I use the Too Faced Sweethearts blush in Peach Beach. It's a more bronzey blush but it's got a slight shimmer and looks great for summer. It has a champagne highlighter color as well and I think it's a great way to get away with not doing much. It works well for my pale/freckles skin!

You could maybe use a light bb cream or tinted moisturizer instead of foundation :)

1) is possible to just highlight without foundation : Yes it is!
2) what is your warm weather routine : I live in humid, sunny Miami, Florida so it's the same all year round. Product on my skin doesn't bother me in particular :P

Yes it is possible. I would recommend a liquid highlighter (nars illuminator, benefit *forgot the name* and watts up, don't know of any drug store alternatives). so that it stays on better and longer. also maybe prime your skin after you moisterize since you don't want to use foundation. itll look great! apply the product where the skin usually hits your face.

my warm weather routine is my normal routine... however if I'm really tanned I usually stop putting foundation and stuff:)

I do something similar to Jocelyn I just buy a highlight/bronzer duo and only use the highlight part just above my cheek bones and it looks like a subtle highlight since it's powder and has a bit of shimmer to it - otherwise I stick to bb cream mainly in the summer n a full coverage waterproof concealer to hide my acne scars.
