This is a perfect festive day look for puja at home or office.
Skin
Prep with a hydrating moisturiser and follow with a sunscreen. Apply a primer to ensure your make-up stays in place. Use a corrector wherever you have redness, and follow with a concealer and foundation. Make sure your base is blended perfectly. Finish with a translucent loose powder.
Eyes
Use a taupe eyeshadow all over your eyelids. Take a matte brown eyeshadow and apply on the outer corners on the crease of your lids. Blend is well. Draw a line with black kohl pencil over along the upper lashline and smudge it gently. Flick it out in the end to create a small wing. Curl the lashes and put two coats of mascara. Brush out the brows and fill in.
Cheeks
Use a medium shade powder bronzer on the apples of the cheeks with a fluffy blush brush. Apply cream highlighter on the cheekbones and in the inner corners of the eyes.
Lips
Apply a lip balm and leave for 5-10 minutes. Dab it gently with a tissue. Apply a nude-brown matte lipstick on the lips.
