Glam up that Festive Face
This fall is all about ‘more’. Eyes are full of drama this autumn. Strokes of nonchalance for those flattering lashes. Smokey eyes make way for structured lines. Lips get a swipe of rosy gloss, lipstick a berry hue, slate and lavender replace the minty freshness of summer – welcome the festive season with a high dose of glam drama.
‘Prime’ n Proper
Prep your skin with a matte primer so as to get the ideal canvas for the festive look. Pick a primer with a satin finish formula for that extra edge. Opt for a sheer formula if dry skin is what you got. To keep the cakey look at bay, go for the illuminating and lightweight foundation. A bb or cc cream can also do the trick. Apply it to a clean face with a blender or a beauty sponge. You can also use a concealer to hide those unruly blemishes and dark circles. A cream-based concealer does the trick and blends well into skin leaving a flawless look behind. Also, if the autumn has you looking paler than usual, use a bronzer on your face to brighten up your look post dusk.
