Apply Nude Makeup : Be YOURSELF

Nude Makeup Look is ideal for women with sharp features. If you choose to endorse this look, you’ll be showcasing your natural beauty without using substantial amount of foundation or bronzer. Some people consider this look ‘bland or muted‘, but if you’ve applied the right kind of products and on the right places, you can really look like a diva, that too effortlessly!
Here are a few tips you could use while trying to achieve this look.


No Makeup Look Steps:


Less is More – This is the first rule of the nude makeup look. You will have to unlearn whatever you’ve learned about applying foundations and concealers. You should not look caked-up while trying to look natural. Use foundation carefully and know when to stop!



Try to Look as Natural as Possible – This should be your main focus. Choose the shades that look natural on you. If you have pale skin, opt for pink or peachy colours and if you have olive undertones, opt for pale beige or cream colours. Lip colour should also look natural. Instead of matted lipstick, apply a little gloss on your lips directly.



Invest in Grooming Sessions – Since you are not allowed to use a lot of makeup in order to hide your flaws, you have got to invest a little on grooming. The best time to carry this look is after getting a facial or after giving your skin a proper cleansing/toning ritual. You need to take care of your lips as well, exfoliate them properly.



The Magic Mascara – You don’t really need oodles of eye shadows and liners when you can look fabulous by putting a little mascara alone. We all know how wonderfully mascara works on our eyes. Just trust your old buddy and give it a chance. If you want, you can add false lashes or a stroke of an eye pencil to give a glamorous twist to your final look.


Blush – You can use blush, but make sure it compliments your skin tone. Do not opt for shades that look contrasting and also, keep a check on the amount of blush being used. Powder based blushes are usually preferred for the nude look.



Create Your Own Style – The most amazing thing about makeup is that you can experiment all the time. Although, the above mentioned rules generally apply to the nude look, you can break them to create your own personal style statement.



According to the event you have to attend, you can add a hint of spunk or elegance. Experiment with different shades of lip balms or apply a glittery eye shadow to match your personality.

Love,

Know your face shape and pump your hairstyle accordingly !

Ohh yeah beauties, you should consider your hair texture and facial features when choosing the hairstyle. But you should not miss another important factor : your face shape. Choosing a hairstyle that flatters it compliments you from all angles. 

Here, we have listed four broad categories of Face shape : 


1. If you have a round face

(That is equal in width and length)

Type of haircut to try: Keep the softness. Shorter layers can help lengthen the face.
Celeb style to steal: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Emma Stone


2. If you have an oval face

(That is tapered towards the chin)

Type of haircut to try: To make an oval face look balanced, add width by getting heavier layers around the face and adding more weight to the hair. Less volume on top helps too.
Celeb style to steal: BĂ©yonce, Sonam Kapoor



3. If you have a square face

(With forehead, cheekbones and jawline of almost equal width)

Type of haircut to try: Softness is key for square face shapes too—always try and soften a strong jawline with feathered layers brushed forward. This shape type is more flexible to work and play with.
Celeb style to steal: Katrina Kaif, Rihanna



4. If you have a heart face

(With a strong tapering towards a pointed chin)

Type of haircut to try: It's the ideal face shape for shorter cuts, as they tend to have good balance. Work those pixies and fringes, because your face can take it all.
Celeb style to steal: Priyanka Chopra, Jennifer Lawrence


So, the next time you decide to go for a hairstyle change, decide wisely so that you fall in love with your hair every time you look in the mirror.

P.S. We will be posting various hairstyles face-shape wise so that your time is not consumed by endless search. 

Indulge in delight. Cheers.
