LOTD: Neutral Eye with Glossy Lips

Hey Everyone!

Spring is almost upon us, after an exceptionally mild winter. So I though to do a fresh make-up with muted colours in a bid to welcome the new season. I have kept the look light with a neutral eye with a hint of gold on the lids. A gentle, winged out liner on the top lashes, softly coloured cheeks and  glossy, plummy-pink lips.

Do remember to moisturise your skin well before starting out, to counter the dryness and avoid a flaky base.

I was quite happy with the result and thought to share it with you...

FOTD: No Fuss Nude Make-Up

Hello Everyone!

The nude look has been in this monsoon with a vengeance. So here's a no-fuss way to recreate this look. This look can be carried at work, a day outing, or even and intimate dinner party.

I have used a B Cream base and only one matte brown shade of eye-shadow. I have avoided the use of mascara to keep the eyes looking close to natural.

Products Used for this Look:

1. ColorBar BB Cream in Honey Glaze 
2. Faces Vanishing Act Concealer in Medium
3. Chambor Compact Powder RR5 Noisette
4. Maybelline New York Blush Studio Cheeky Glow in Creamy Cinnamon
5. Deborah Milano 24 ORE Velvet Long Lasting Eye Shadow
6. Himalaya Kajal
7. Elle 18 Liquid Eyeliner in Blackout
8. Oriflame Lip Crayonin Coral
9. Maybelline New York Lip Polish in Glam 14

Step By Step

1. Prep your skin by applying your favourite moisturiser/sun block.
2. Dot the BB Cream all over your face and blend in with a brush/sponge/just your fingers.
3. Apply the concealer on areas where you may have spots or uneven patches. You may use a brush, I like to pat the product into my skin with my fingers.
4. Set the base by dusting your face lightly with a compact powder. This step I like to do with a powder brush.
5. Apply the blush with a very light hand starting at the apples of your cheeks and take the colour up to your temples. Apply some blush to the bridge of your nose, forehead and tip of the chin. Remember, very light hand..
6. Apply the matte brown shade of the eyeshadow on the entire upper lid and swipe lightly along the lower lash line.
7. Apply Kohl/Kajal along the lower lash waterline.
8. Apply a line of eyeliner very close to the upper lash line.
9. Line your lips with the nude lip liner and fill in your lips with the same lip liner.
10. Apply one or two coats of the lip polish to finish.

LOTD: Monsoon Greens

Hi Everyone!

Its been a while since I did a look. The monsoon rains have turned Delhi a beautiful green. So taking inspiration from this beautiful hue Delhi is sporting, I created this simple look. I wore this look to attend a puja ceremony at  friend's house. I've kept the look as natural and homey as possible since it was a small and intimate gathering. I have used a green, shimmery eye shadow from the Make Up Revolution London eye palette. I have kept the rest of the look neutral with peachy cheeks and nude lips, to draw attention to the eyes, which are the highlight of this look.

Products Used for the Look:

1. Polaar Icy Magic Instant Skin Perfector
2. Lakme 9 to 5 Flawless Makeup Foundation in Shell
3. Lakme Absolute Face Stylist Concealer in (05) Honey
4. Chambor Silver Shadow Compact (RR5) 
5. Beauty UK Blush in (04) Rustic Peach
6. Be  Bombshell All in One Stick in Champagne Shimmer
7. Make Up Revolution London Eye Shadow Palette in Redemption Palette Hot Smoked
8. Himalaya Kajal
9. Maybelline New York The Colossal Liner Pen in Black
10. Lakme Perfect Definition Lip Liner in (01) Irish Coffee
11. Maybelline New York Lip Polish in Glam 13

I did not use a mascara since it was really humid and as of now I do not own a water proof mascara. Idid not want to chance any mascara meltin down my eyelashes. I do not really like using waterproof mascara because it is difficult to remove and I don't like to scrub too hard around the very delicate eye area.

If you notice, I have not used a primer either. Actually I have been testing out the Polaar Icy Magic Instant Skin Perfector. I wanted to see how it would work without a primer.

P.S. Don't mind the hair. I've never been to good with hairdos and the humidity right now has messed it up further :(
