Why to buy: Blushes and highlighters are simply indispensable for a radiant complexion and a "natural glow". Two new Blushes Monos and a new Highlighter from Dr. Hauschka now ensure a lively radiance and a fresh complexion. Light-reflecting mineral pigments and medicinal plant extracts also give the skin a nourished feeling on the cheeks. Natural contouring is now even more multifaceted: with colour accents and highlights that emphasise the natural shape of the face and put it in the best light.
The blushes provide a fresh touch of colour in shades 01 raspberry and 02 apricot. They sculpt the face and emphasise the cheek area. The composition with medicinal plant extracts of sage and witch hazel also adds caring accents to the cheeks.

The new Highlighter Powder 01 illuminating gives a radiant complexion with shimmering highlights and nourishes with silk and medicinal plant extracts from witch hazel and black tea, among others. It accentuates the cheeks, bridge of the nose or forehead, but can also be used as an eye shadow.

Like all make-up products from Dr. Hauschka, these newcomers are made from natural ingredients that visually blend with the skin tone to emphasise individuality. Each individual product combines the power of medicinal plants and cares for the skin.
