9 Makeup Looks To Recreate For A Fab Festive Look
Smokey Eye Makeup Is A Festive Win
Here, Kat shows us how to wear silver glitter on her black and brown smokey eye look while flaunting that ethereal glow. Simply use a dark brown makeup as the base and top it with a silver glitter to the outer corners of your lids. Smudge the brown eyeshadow on the lower lash lines for some extra definition.
A Pop Of Colour
We are here to take notes as the stunning Deepika Padukone illustrates how to wear a burst of colour with burgundy eye makeup. Over your lids and above your crease lines, evenly distribute a nude pink shimmer eyeshadow. Next, line your upper and lower lash lines with a burgundy eyeliner. Finally, accent your lash lines with the deepest brown kohl, and finish off your look with volumising mascara.
Keep It Classic, Keep It Kohl-Rimmed!
With that glowing skin and kohl-rimmed eyes, Aishwarya exudes simplicity with sophistication. Because this eyeliner look is just so dramatic, prime your lids to get the maximum longevity of the eye makeup. To achieve that soft, diffused kohl-rimmed look, lightly blend the upper and lower lash lines with a pencil brush after applying a kohl pencil. Apply mascara to finish the look and use a nude lip shade to let your eyes do the talking. It’s the perfect makeup look for any attire you have chosen for Bhai Dooj 2022.
Monochrome Magic
Take a cue from Tamannaah, please! This simple yet gorgeous monochrome makeup look involves very little work ‘coz it resembles the no-makeup makeup look. Simply smudge a muted nudeish pink shade onto your lids and wear a soft pink blush with a similar tone on your cheeks. Dab on a pale pink or nude lip colour for that natural pout.
Glossy Lips For That Extra Sass
In contrast to her practically undetectable pink lip gloss, Shraddha Kapoor wore a glistening gold eyeliner. A lesson in harmonising a touch of shimmer on one area of the face with something less overt on another can be learned from this aesthetic. Apply lip gloss on top of a peachy pink lipstick to give yourself a juicy pout that will draw everyone’s attention.
Sun-Kissed Selfie
Shanaya Kapoor’s envious makeup look has swept the internet by storm. So when it comes to increasing the glamm factor, this one is a sure winner. Sun-kissed makeup with metallic shimmer? Two of our fave trends in the world of drama! Blend a shimmering bronzer along your cheekbones, hairline, and jawline to achieve the perfect glow. Next, use a neutral eyeshadow to create a clean canvas on your lids. Apply a metallic gold eyeshadow all over your lids, extending it all the way to your brow bones. Apply this gold shade to your lash lines as well. You’re now selfie ready!
La, La, La, Lilac!
Or maybe you’re looking for something exceptional? Harness your adventurous side with outlandish hues like Sara Ali Khan’s lilac eye makeup, dramatic brows, and fresh peachy pink lipstick that she wore with her sheer sari. Simply use a light wash of lilac eyeshadow along your lower lash line and all over your lids. Spend some time with this one because the finish will look softer and diffused the more you blend out this colour with a fluffy makeup brush.
Leave On Red
Are you running out of time, or maybe you don’t feel like putting on a full face of makeup after a weekend of partying? In favour of a pair of seductive red matte lipstick, Karisma Kapoor’s foolproof makeup look writes out all sorts of beautification. Choose a creamy matte lipstick if you have dry lips because it will keep your pout looking gorgeous all day.
Green Eyes, Hypnotise!
Shilpa Shetty appears like a true diva in this Bhai Dooj makeup look, which is a pure work of art. This is the perfect opportunity to experiment with green eye makeup if you’ve been thinking about it. Apply an eye primer all over your eyelids. To define your eye sockets, first apply a light brown transition tone to the area around your eyes. Then, cover your lids completely with an iridescent emerald green eyeshadow, but leave a little space in the middle of your lids, right above the lash line. Use golden eyeshadow to fill in the space. If you want to look perfect, wear some fluttery false lashes!
