Embrace Traditional Beauty
The first look embraces the traditional aesthetic. Start with a flawless base, using a foundation that matches your skin tone perfectly. For the eyes,
a classic kohl-lined look is essential, adding depth with a touch of dark eyeshadow. Consider a smokey effect for a more glamorous feel. A pop of color comes from a vibrant lipstick shade. Bold red or deep maroon are great options. Finish with a bindi in the center of your forehead, and you have a timeless look for the celebrations. This makeup will keep you rooted in tradition while looking beautiful.
Go for Bold Eyes
This look allows you to take your eye makeup to the next level. You can opt for a dramatic winged eyeliner, or play with colourful eyeshadows, creating a multi-tonal effect. Choose shades like gold, copper, or emerald to compliment your outfit. If you're using glitter, apply it carefully on your eyelids to make your eyes pop. Pair your statement eye makeup with a nude or light lip color to keep the focus on your eyes. Mascara is key, so apply a generous amount to your upper and lower lashes, making your eyes look bigger and wider. This bold look suits those who love to experiment.
Radiant Skin Glow
The 'glow up' is always a great choice. This look is all about natural, dewy skin. Start with a hydrating primer and a light coverage foundation. Use a cream or liquid highlighter on your cheekbones, brow bone, and the bridge of your nose to give a radiant glow. A touch of blush is crucial. Choose a shade that enhances your natural skin tone. Peach, rose, or coral are all good options. For your lips, use a tinted lip balm or gloss for a subtle finish. This style keeps your skin looking healthy and is great for daytime celebrations. It's a great foundation for any Navratri look.
Smokey Eyes, Defined
Smokey eyes are a classic option, and this look gives them a festive spin. Start with a neutral eyeshadow base, then use shades of grey, brown or black for the smokey effect. You can choose a soft and diffused look or go for a more dramatic, intense style. Blend your eyeshadows well. Make sure to soften the edges for a flawless appearance. Balance the bold eye makeup with a nude or light lip colour. Applying some highlighter on your cheekbones can complete the look, and give your face some shape. This look brings an edge to your overall look.
Modern Metallic Touch
Metallic makeup will really make you stand out! Use metallic eyeshadows or eyeliners in gold, silver, or bronze to add some shimmer to your eyes. You can create a simple metallic winged eyeliner, or opt for a fully metallic eye look. Keep your base simple and let your eyes steal the show. Nude or light lipsticks or glosses will complement your makeup perfectly. Applying a highlighter will enhance your cheekbones, creating a lovely glow. This look provides a contemporary touch to your traditional attire, making you look chic and festive. It is a stylish choice, and it is the perfect blend of modern and tradition.
