For some reason, I never really look like I had a restful weekend. I think I need to get more sleep. But, since I am in a constant loop of needing sleep, not getting sleep and looking like I need sleep, I have to fake looking fabulous and refreshed. That’s why I love makeup products that boost radiance.
I was recently given Mary Kay Facial Highlighting Pen in Shade 3, a dewy, luminous glow-getter, and I love it. Before I tell you why, here are the details about this beauty fix.

Why this Facial Highlighting Pen is a Monday Morning Must-Have:
Any makeup product that makes me look awake and coherent on Monday morning deserving of review in my book. Mary Kay Facial Highlighting Pen Shade 3 is no exception. This pen, with a brush tip and twist-tube packaging is just lovely. It’s easy to use and lives up to all the claims the brand makes about it.
I use this highlighter pen on the top of my cheek, mix with my concealer and apply on my brow bone after applying foundation or bb cream. A little goes a very long way and it blends amazingly well. My skin looks is naturally radiant and refreshed. Even days that I don’t wear foundation, I apply a bit of this highlighter and some cream blush and it’s so pretty.
