Forget glowing cheeks and glistening lips, there’s a new highlighter trend that will have you all ears-highlighted earlobes.
'Lobe strobing’ is a beauty look where highlighter is applied to your earlobe, outer and inner ear.
It’s a look that serves the same purpose as sweeping illuminator across your cheekbones: to lift, enhance and make your ears glow.

If you want to give your ears a glistening makeover, apply liquid highlighter to the top of your ear or lobe for a subtle look, or use product all-over your ear for a high-voltage look.

"Highlighter leaves people feeling powerful and pretty, adding a little highlighter on the ear can be a statement of confidence," makeup artist Andre Sarmiento told Refinery929.
Highlighted earlobes have caught the eye of innovative makeup artists on Instagram who have been matching their glowing ears with highlighted complexions and contoured cheeks.
