"I'm going to use a face and body shimmer on her as well. This is a fun look. You know, the blush I used was pretty matte so I want to add some shimmer, just to give a glow. So I'm using a pressed face and body shimmer. You can use it loose too just be very, very careful. These are pretty potent so a little goes a long way. I'm using a nice, big, fluffy brush. I'm going to go right on her cheekbones and also onto her chest since her shirt is open. Ok so I'm just putting the shimmer right onto her cheekbones giving it a nice glow, either side of her cheeks, and you know you can use a little, a lot, it just depends on your personal preference. I don't like a tremendous amount of shimmer, just a little bit does the trick, maybe a little bit on the nose and the forehead and the chin just to even everything out, and I'm definitely going to take it down the neck and down the chest because her shirt's open so it's going to give it a nice glow and in the light you're definitely going to see this. It's going to look like her skin is glowy and perfect, and just really pretty. It's good for nighttime. It's also good for like the new, a new look for spring and summer. It's always good to look nice and glowy and healthy, and like I said a little goes a long way so just put a little bit on. You can always add more and more as needed."
