Look glam with winter make up tips

During the winter months, when the weather in Delhi becomes icy, showers become hotter, skin becomes drier, your complexion start to look blotchy and unloved. It’s essential to address your skin’s new seasonal make-up. “Foundations with extra surge in moisture, sun protection, and color should be picked up”, explains make-up artist Neena Reddy. For those with an uneven texture or oiliness, matte foundations prove to be perfect. Don’t forget to try liquid foundations that are in these days and work wonders during the winters as they have a buildable coverage, making the skin look immaculate and flawless. But the golden rule is women should always follow their own individual ideas when it comes to their make-up. It should ultimately be a reflection of one’s own style!

Skin and Lips - If your skin is a little bit on the pale side, use contrasting colors like pink or red. Cream blushes can be great in winter because they can easily be used with the finger and melt into the skin. The coverage is translucent and it looks like real skin. And if your skin is light, use dark colors like purple or maroon to stand out. For your lips, go wine, but if you don’t like dark lip colors, try natural skin shades like a happy pink or a mid-range beige that give a nude effect to lips, to look beautiful.

Eyes- A simple wash of silver shadow can give your eyes an ethereal glow that manages to be both sexy and innocent. If there was ever a time to go for a solid smoky eye, this is it!! An icy sheen is really beautiful on every eye in the freezing winter months as long as you adjust the intensity of the metallic to match your skin tone. For instance, a sheer application of pearly silver is best on fair skin tones, while a denser, more metallic hue flatters darker complexions. Other silvery finishes, such as frosty pink, icy blue, or pale violet, are equally arresting. Don’t forget to put on several layers of mascara to make your eyes look bigger.

Nails- Nail color is the easiest accessory! You should chose nail polish the same way you would choose any other accessory – go with what you're attracted to and what makes you feel good! A bold lip color with a bold nail paint in contrasting or ‘off’ colors make you look chic. Dark green, dark blue, black and red look beautiful in the colder season. This is an instant way to look ready for the season by rocking those dark and earthy colors!

Hair- Hair is an essential part of your look. A hairdo can literally make or break your image of a diva. In the winters add a ‘volume look’ by leaving your hair loose around your face. Soft waves or even dense curly hair with a snowy colorful cap can make you look gorgeous. Avoid straightening your hair and using too many chemical based products as winters generally bring a bag of hair problems like dandruff and hair fall.

Following these tips will help but remember if you prefer to wear make-up that makes you feel good, you will never make a mistake! Go with what you're attracted to, follow your own rules, and wear whatever it is with confidence. Though a little fun and experimentation with your look won’t harm
