This MUA Is Creating Makeup Looks Inspired By Desi Snacks & It’s Making Us Kaafi Hungry

As an introvert, if you were to ask me about one that I actually miss during lockdown, then in all probability my answer would be ‘going out and snacking!’ In fact, there is this big, fat Delhi burger that is haunting my dreams for over 6 months now. Also, I happen to have a huge list of dishes that I’d like to devour as soon as this pandemic gets over for good!

Well, this is exactly why I have been extremely grateful for good old Maggie and a few other classic Indian snacks which come in a packet that can be sanitised, because everything else is a big no-no in my house right now.  In fact, I may or may not be munching on a packet of chips while writing this story! Seems like these snacks definitely deserve more credit than they are given, and makeup artist Divya Premchand is celebrating them in the coolest way possible. 

In Divya’s latest makeup series, there’s glitter, there’s drama, some very serious contouring, and most importantly, snacks! Yes, you read that right. As part of the series, Divya has been creating makeup looks inspired by iconic Indian snacks and I don’t think I’ll be wrong to call them ‘yummy.’ The looks feature some of the most celebrated snacks in India ranging from Lays to Poppins. And it will definitely take 80s and 90s kids who grew up on these snacks down a nostalgia trip. 

Divya launched this series in July this year and has also been posting 1-minute makeup tutorials sharing what actually goes into the delectable looks. Here are all the looks from Divya’s series:

Some Magic Masala Errr Makeup

Love the azure blue eyes and the confetti effect. This does look exactly like a packet of Magic Masala lays, right?

 

Wonder If She Managed This Is Just 2 Minutes

From the crazy noodle game aside, what we really love about this look is how beautifully the maggie yellow has been balanced with the coral eye shadow and lipstick. 

 

Resurrecting The 90s In 3…2…1…

Can we all please take a moment and admire how Divya has managed to recreate the Pass Pass contents with the multi-coloured rhinestones? Fab! 

 

This Got Out Eyes Poppin!

Well, it has always been right there and yet no one thought of equating the Insta-famous rainbow makeup trend with Poppins. Also, what’s that fire blend game Divya?

 

Some Good Old Chakna

I’m digging the highlight and gold freckles in this one! Won’t be surprised if these glorious bhujia cheeks end up becoming a major makeup trend! 

 

Totally gonna try these looks at home and look like a snack! See what I did there? For now, craving some vegetables wali Maggie. BRB fam!
