The right kind of make-up, correctly applied with the apt make-up tools can bring out fabulous results. It's an art which women spend a lot of money on. Here are tips on make-up to help you buy right, apply well and look fabulous.
Tinted moisturiser: Put aside the foundation, usher in the tinted moisturiser. The heavy coverage of a foundation is passé. A lightweight tinted moisturiser will provide protection, SPF and add a hint of colour to your face. Powder based foundation is a no-no since it emphasises the lines in your face and clogs pores. Test your shade by applying along the jaw and checking in daylight.
Good idea: Add a bit of serum to foundation. It mixes well and works to provide a better finish to the skin.
Concealer: It's not a product that enjoys wide popularity in our country yet, but there's nothing like it for under-eye circles. Choose half a shade lighter than your skin. Concealer is a also your product of choice to cover acne or zits.
Lip colour: Bright colours such as coral, pink and red suit the Indian skin tone and look youthful. Pearly finishes can make you look old. Stick to matte or sheer textures. Emphasise only your eyes or your mouth, never both. If you are going for deep, smoky eyes, brighten your lips with a lip stain. It's light colour can pass off as your natural shade.
Good idea: Glossy lipsticks fade faster. For long-lasting coverage, apply lip balm and top with a matte lipstick.
Brushes: Many women don't pay attention to brushes. Buy a set of right brushes to aid you in makeup. They are as important as the right colours.
