Why Choose the Beauty Junkees Concealer and Highlighter Duo?

While it may not initially seem that important to have your highlighting needs met by one product, just consider a few of the unique benefits that the Beauty Junkees Concealer and Highlighter Duo offers.

It is a creamy formula that glides on with ease and it features the matte formula at one end along with the shimmer at the other. That means you can use the matte product for shaping and defining and with just a flip, give your face finishing touches with the shimmering highlighter.

It is also a cruelty free formula that is without any paraben ingredients, any gluten containing compounds and made entirely in the USA. Easily sharpened, the tip holds it shape well and allows for maximum control when applying.

The hues in the Beauty Junkees Concealer and Highlighter Duo are also perfectly matched, ensuring you get a good and perfectly balanced finish without any off hues marring the otherwise good looks of your makeup.

Buying Your Beauty Junkees Concealer and Highlighter Duo

Whenever you shop for makeup, one of the most important factors is to ensure that base products, contouring products and highlighters work well with your natural complexion.  This can mean that you own several different pencils, liquid foundations and so on.

Yet, do you need that many? If you read up about the latest techniques in makeup application, the professionals advise using concealer to shape brows. This means that you can turn to a product like this pencil to give your brows the sort of shaping required. Yet it also means you can highlight the under-eye area, and more.

The point is to consider the number of uses a single, quality product might provide. As a simple example, a pencil that takes care of concealer, highlighting, a bit of contouring and some brow shaping is great. Pair it up with a brow gel that gives you a good finish, and you’ve found a great routine. The days of single-purpose products for streamlined beauty routines are over.

Don’t forget that you also don’t want to find yourself struggling to apply and then blend any concealer or highlighter. Generally because this allows the product to smear and dull across the skin, and with some concealers, it dries out the surface and can actually make the skin appear to have even deeper lines or flaws. Though using a fingertip is the automatic reaction, if a pencil cannot be easily applied and finished with a brush, it is best to avoid it.

Fortunately, the Beauty Junkees Concealer and Highlighter Duo is a pencil that does have that creamy texture, and once applied, you can easily blend and finish it with a brush rather than a fingertip.

How to Use Beauty Junkees Concealer and Highlighter Duo

To use it is incredibly simple, and it does have a wide array of potential applications. For instance, to give your brow a natural lift, just start with the matte end of the pencil and glide it above and below the brow. Use your brush to soften and blend the edges. You can then use the shimmer end to give a bit of highlighting to the arched area of the brow by gliding a bit on the upper area of the arch and again blending with a brush.

The same techniques apply to any use of the pencil. You want to shape, define and conceal with the matte end and then add that wonderful bit of pop with the shimmering end. You can also use it to really brighten the complexion, such as adding it to the inner corner of the eye or using it to conceal any areas of darkness around the eye.
