These are both LE pigments but Sunnydaze and Gold Dusk pigment rock as highlighter. Sunnydaze isn't super light, but it's good natural-ish color to blend under the brow.

Directly under my brow - I use Dazzlelight and then right under that, I use a mixture of vanilla and pink opal pigments. I also like Hush or Motif for a pinkish tone or vanilla pigment alone if I am doing something warmer.

rice paper is GORGEOUS.
i use vanilla pigment everyday, it's mad universal. and it's really sheer but always catches the light in a different color.
