Achieving "Glowing Skin" for photographs.

I've had a lot of questions about how to achieve "glowing skin" when using flash photography. There are a few trusty products I like to use on the face and body. 

F A C E

Mac Face and Body - Water based foundation. Natural, build-able coverage that leaves a dewy finish. 
Becca Shimmering Skin Perfecter - Water based light reflective lotion, contains SPF 20, perfect for strategic highlighting or an all over glow.
Mac Stobe Cream - Loaded with vitamins and green tea, hydrates, softens and soothes. The low level shimmer is undeniably beautiful under strong lights.
Nuxe Huile Prodigeiuse Dry Oil - Multi purpose, luxury oil packed with Vitamin E. As it is a dry oil the shine doesn't last long, numerous applications are needed on a shoot.
Elizabth Arden 8 Hour Cream - A classic!! So multifunctional... just buy it! 

B O D Y

Baby Oil - Cheap and cheerful and leaves the skin soft and silky.
Mac Iridescent Powder - Available in 2 shades. Amazing on their own or mixed with oils and lotions. Can also be used on the face.
St Tropez Gold Skin Illuminator - Beautiful lightweight lotion that is perfect for adding a little colour and sheen to any skin tone. Comes in 2 other shades, however I find the gold is the most universal.
