Tap a small amount under the eyes using your ring finger or a brush. The banana tone neutralises darkness and instantly lifts the face.

Finish: A natural, fresh, skin-like glow with a subtle no-makeup lift.

Pro tip: Set lightly with powder for all-day wear.

2) As a Makeup Base (Your skin, but better)

Apply a thin layer across the centre of the face — under eyes, around nose, chin and forehead. Blend outward for a soft-focus, naturally bright complexion.

Finish: Fresh, radiant summer skin with a healthy, lit-from-within glow.

Pro tip: Press in with a damp sponge for an ultra-light finish, or layer lightly in targeted areas for extra brightness without heaviness.

3) The Pro Brightening Technique (Correct & Brighten)

Apply two dots of Peach or Latte Lowlighter to colour correct, then blend using the concealer brush in gentle tapping motions. Layer two dots of Banana Lowlighter on top to brighten and lift, and blend again with the brush for a seamless finish.

Finish: A smooth, brightened under-eye with a lifted, higher coverage look

Pro tip: Build in light layers and tap to blend — this keeps coverage smooth, prevents creasing, and enhances that fresh, wide-awake effect.

“I travel frequently for work and I’m naturally an early riser, which inevitably takes its toll on my skin — especially around the eyes, where dark circles and fatigue show first. I wanted to create a product that would instantly open, lift and brighten the eye area, giving the visible effect of eight hours’ sleep, even when I hadn’t had it. That was the inspiration behind Banana Lowlighter.

I was also passionate about developing a true makeup-skincare hybrid — something that not only delivered an immediate aesthetic lift, but also offered genuine skincare benefits over time. It’s the product I reach for before meetings, flights and events — whenever I need that instant boost to look fresh, awake and polished.

I hope it becomes your go-to for those tired-skin days."
