Deepika Padukone IIFA 2016 Inspired Smokey Eye Makeup Tutorial

Hi Everyone

If we talk about latest trends in Makeup community Celebrity inspired looks are totally in. IIFA 2016 event just happened few days back. Deepika Padukone walked the red carpet like a Goddess.She was wearing a beautiful Cape dress and her divine Makeup totally stole the show.She was having dark Black smokey eyes with nude lips and how can we forget the star of the makeup HIGHLIGHTER on fleek. I simply adore her and couldn't stop myself trying that makeup look.

There are many bloggers and Vloggers who have recreated this look.But I am not following anyone.This is  totally my take how i wanted to achieve this look with some limited products.If you guys are interested, please keep on reading.So let's begin..

1.First I am starting with my eyes for that I used a concealer as my eye primer so that the eye shadow color pops out.

2.After preping my eyes I applied a thick layer of gel eye liner on my eye lids as my base.Make sure you don't go over the crease just on your lids and then quickly smudge it with a brush.

                                           

3.Now take a black eye shadow and blend both the colors up to your crease line.You will get something like this.

4. Now apply the same gel eye liner in your lower water line and also smudge it to lower lash line to get that intense look.

5.Curl your lashes and apply mascara if you want you can apply false lashes but I am going with two good coats of my favorite mascara.

6.Coming to eye brows Deepika had very strong thick defined eye brows in that look.So I am going to define my brows a lil heavy  with an eye brow pencil and later highlight the brow bone.

7.Now for my face I prep my face with a face primer and then applied foundation and set it with a pressing powder.You can use any according to your preference.

 8.Now apply the concealer under your eyes to highlight your eyes.

9.Apply a pink blush on the apples of your cheeks to add a lil color on your face.I am using a rose pink shade from my blush palette.

10.Now time to apply highlighter for that use an applicator brush and apply it on highest points of your face i.e cheekbones,bridge of your nose,forehead,brow bone,chin and cupids bow.

11.End up this look by adding a lipstick on your lips. Deepika had a brown/Mauve nude on her lips,but I wanted to have a pink nude color on my lips.So I have used a beautiful pink nude shade on my lips.

So this completes the look.This is an Inspired look which Deepika wore but not the exact same. I  recreated this according to my preference and  gave it a my shot.

Here are some pictures of the FINAL LOOK

I hope you guys  like this tutorial.Let me know if you want more Celebrity Inspired makeup looks.

Red Eyeliner Holiday Look| Pinterest Inspired Makeup

Hey Beauties

Today's post is about a Makeup look.I was searching on Pinterest and saw this look and I couldn't stop myself to try this.I love red color and it turned out so beautiful and vibrant.So let's begin the tutorial.

1. First as usual prep your eyes with an eye primer or concealer.I am using Krylon 

   Supacolor concealer in the shade FS 42 on the upper lids.

              

2 .After primer apply a compact powder or bronzer on your eyelids to smooth out and 

    it also gives a natural color on the lids.I am using Maybelline Fit Me bronzer.

                   

3.If you don't have a red eye liner like me use a liquid red lipstick and start applying a  winged eyeliner with a liner brush.I am using Cameleon color stay Liquid lipstick in the    shade no. 16  and applying it with a Vega Eye liner brush.

                          

                   

Make sure you apply a thin layer first and then darken it.

You also have to move your hands a lil faster as liquid lipsticks gets dry very soon.

  

4. Now apply a gel eye liner on your lower water line.I am using my all time fav Maybelline    eye studio drama gel eyeliner with the brush from Maybelline itself.

                              

                                  

5. Time to apply Mascara on upper and lower lashes.Here I am using Maybelline Hyper curl   Volume Express Mascara.

                              

6. Now apply a light shade of concealer under your eyes to brighten up the eye look.I used   Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in the shade Medium.Dab it and blend it with a beauty blender.

                                         

                                     

7.Apply a very soft and neutral shade of lipstick so that your lips don't over power your eyes.I am using Oriflame (Sweden) lipstick in the shade Cocoa Brown.Its a very beautiful nude brown shade in a semi matte finish.

Makeup Tips For Dry Skin

Hello all beautiful people out there.

Today I will be sharing with you some tips of applying Makeup for Dry Skin.
I do have dry skin and I know sometimes you apply makeup to hide your flaws & dark areas,but due to stretch in dry skin it turned out so patchy and doesn't hide any flaws.For this you need to be  more careful while choosing your Makeup products.You should also be ware about applying the makeup in a proper way.Here are some basic Rules you need to follow if you have Dry skin.

Pre-Makeup

Firstly wash your face with a gentle face wash and then apply your favourite moisturizer and massage it well and then wait for five minutes and allow it to absorb well into your skin .You can also use a Primer after that.Face primers fill in and smooth out the skin, so that foundation sits well on top of it, giving a soft even look.

Foundation

Always use a foundation which is suitable for Dry skin to avoid roughness on face.If your skin is extremely dry and flaking, try to avoid powder foundations. Powders tend to dry out the skin even more, resulting in a dull tired look, rather than glowing and fresh.Check the ingredient list for antioxidants and hydrating elements while choosing your foundation. It is also a good idea to use foundation which features UVA/UVB protection, since dry skin looks incredibly dull after sun-damage.

Concealer

A concealer is a must for people with dry skin, because it can effectively mask blemishes, pigmentation and rough spots.Choose a special moisturizing concealer in a cream form to smooth out uneven skin tone and mask fine lines. The first step of moisturizing is very important, because concealers can settle into fine lines in dry skin.

 Eyes

It is better to use cream-based shadows if you have dry skin.Powder eye shadows may settle into these and highlight them further. Using a nice cream eyeshadow which is designed to reflect light will make eyes look bright and the colours will stand out for a longer time.When removing eye makeup, people with dry skin must use a remover specifically for the eyes. Check the label for words like ‘hydrating’ and ‘nourishing’. 

Lips

Lips with dry skin are very sensitive to damage from sun exposure and cold climate. Lips balms with intensive moisturizing ingredients are essential to protect from chapping and drying.Tinted lip balms are a great way to add color and moisture to your lips.When buying lipsticks, try to avoid matte lipsticks. Dry lips become even drier with matte formulas. If you must use these, apply them over a layer of balm first.

Cheeks

The best thing you can do for your cheeks is to use mineral cream blushes especially formulated for dry skin. These have rich hydrating properties and add a smooth glow. Many of these also come with SPF, so that you have the added advantage of protection your sensitive skin from further sun damage.

Makeup Remover

Never sleep with makeup on no matter how lazy you feel after a long day. This can result in clogged pores, acne and skin irritation. Moreover, makeup is already drinking up your skin’s moisture. Leaving it overnight is bad enough for any skin type, and it is disastrous for dry skin.Choose one that is made only for dry skin so that it returns lost moisture to the skin as it gently deep cleanses away layers of makeup and impurities from the pores.Follow with a moisturizing night cream that can work to heal and hydrate your skin while you sleep. Look for products with rich moisturizing elements such as aloe vera.

Final Suggestion

Don’t think that dry skin means you can’t flaunt your makeup skills and look radiant and rosy. If you take basic precautions such as choosing cream-based moisturizing products over powder ones, you should not have much trouble. Buy products with good SPF content to minimize effects of sun damage. 

I hope these small points will help you choosing & applying Makeup for Dry Skin.

Thanks for reading

Stay Beautiful.!!!

Summer Beauty Essentials

       

Hi everyone I have come up with a new blog for you. As we all know summer season is on peak.We all get issues with our skin because of Sun,heat and pollution.So today I will be sharing some Summer essentials which you should have and carry with you during this summer season.

     1. Facewash/Cleanser

   Cleansing your face is an important part of the daily skin care routine to have beautiful clean skin. Select a cleanser/facewash focusing on your skin type (for normal, oily, dry, combination skin).In summers to avoid acne/pimples and dryness or oiliness  you can choose cream based cleanser if you have dry skin or if you have oily skin you can pick a gel based facewash.I prefer using Himalaya Neem or Aloevera and Clean & Clear facewash. You can choose according to your skin type.

       2. Sunscreen

This is the most important thing you need in summers. Your skin get directly hit by UV rays which can burn your skin like anything. Always wear a sunscreen if you going out or even if you at home sunscreen is a must.I would say Neutrogena, Lakme or VLCC. They all are quite good.

       3. BB/CC Creams

In summers specially in day time when you going for work or college. You don’t want that heavy cakey foundation on your face. So opt for BB or CC creams in summers. There are several creams available in the market.Either you can go for Maybelline Clear glow BB stick or if you have dry skin try Garnier BB cream or you can try Lakme CC cream as well.You can choose according to your skin type.It gives you a smooth and even skin.

      4. Compact Powder

      In heat we all get sweaty especially on T zone area and above your lips.You should always use a compact powder for setting up your makeup. It absorbs all the oil from your face and gives you a fresh look. You can opt for Lakme Perfect Radiance white or Maybelline clear glow all in one.

      5. Kajal

 Kajal is a must have for every girl. Avoid using liquid liners in summers.You can use kajal or kohl pencil as a liner on your top & bottom lash lines.I highly recommend Lakme eyeconic & Maybelline colossal.They both are smudge proof and stays for a long time.

 

 6. Lip balm /Matte shade Lipsticks

I have heard from a lot of people about their lips getting dried up in summers.It’s true because of dehydration in sun or heat, lips  do get dry.One should always carry a lip balm in her purse.My favorite is Maybelline baby lips.If you are a lipstick person go for matte shades opt for corals,pink and peaches in day time even bold shades are in you can go for bold red matte,burgundy or moves.I am a huge fan of Colorbar velvet matte lipsticks.You can opt for your favorite brand.

      7. Deodorant

Every one of us wants to smell good. But many of us have sweating or body odor issues. So you should always apply and carry a good deodorant.It freshen you up and you don’t get that stinky smell from yourself. I personally like  Dove go fresh & Nivea pearl & beauty.They both have that refreshing fragrance.

 8. Wipes/Tissues

  You badly need a hankey or wipes/ tissues whenever you go out.So do carry a pack of  either a    tissue or wipes with you to hydrate your face and clean that extra oil on your skin.You can use baby  wipes also.

So these were my Summer Beauty Essentials.I hope it is helpful for you too.
Take good care of your skin to maintain the charm & beauty.
Use products which are suitable for your skin type.
Don't experiment your skin with cheap products.
Always check the product from inside and its expiry date before buying a new product.

I will see you guys in my next blog.

Stay Beautiful
