As you guys might know , i had done a Makeup essentials PART 1 .This is the part 2 of the same series.
Eye makeup
Eyeshadow Primer-
If you’re planning to apply an eyes shadow it’s important that it stays longer.Eye shadows tend be all over the place .A Primer helps to make it stay longer.
The one i use:
Kleancolor Matte eyeshadow Primer
NYX eyeshadow base in pearl
An eyeshadow base helps to make the eyeshadow appear brighter.
Eye shadows:
Though most of the indian women choose to wear kajal/eyeliner on a day to day basis, a few of us use eye shadows on special occasions .It’s important to choose a eye shadow palette that suits your skin tone & on your priorities .You can create your own palette by purchasing single eyeshadows.
The one i own;
NYX Runway collection in Champagne & Caviar
Price : Around Rs.850
What i love about this palette:
This palette contains a mixture of neutral & darker shades.Hence it’s a must have palette for daily netural eyes & also for smokey eyes.You can create a number of looks by using a single palette.
Eye liners:
There are number of eyeliners available in the market.I personally love gel eyeliners as it’s quite simple to create the winged eyeliner look using the brush.
Eyeliners come in different forms:
-Gel
-Pencil
-Liquid
-Pen( Almost like a sketch pen)
The ones i use-
Maybelline eye studio gel eyeliner
Colorbar eyeliner
Colossal Kajal pencil
NYX Jumbo eye pencil in Black
VOV eye pen
LIPS
Lipsticks come in a variety of shades.Orange & hot pink are perfect for spring/summer.Again,it’s important to choose the lipsticks according to your skin tone.I personally love matte lipstick.Always apply a lipbalm under a matte lipstick so that your lips stay moist.Lip primers/concealers are a great way to make neon lipstick seem brighter.
I am not a big fan of lipgloss but i do own a few.You can add a tiny bit of lip gloss on the centre of your lips to make it look bigger
