Diwali, the festival of lights, is just around the corner! It’s the perfect opportunity to add extra sparkle to the celebrations. These festive makeup looks can be your go-to references for the season ahead.
With Diwali parties in full swing and more social gatherings on the cards, it’s time to shine bright with the best festive makeup. To make it easier and ensure you glow as brightly as the Diwali lights, Vidhi Arya from Professional Beauty India shares some glittery, glam festive makeup looks for the season.
The Golden Glow
This is the perfect look for everyone who loves the allure of golden hues. To achieve this look, you need to ace a flawless, dewy base. Top it up with a creamy blush on the apple of your cheeks and a creamy highlighter on your high points. As the eyes are the highlight of this look, add a lot of golden eyeshadow and define your eyes with a thick black liner; whether to wing it or not, you choose! Finish the look with a nice nude or mauve lipstick that balances all the dew and glitter of the look.
Embrace Your Favourite Colours
This look is for the girlies who love to embrace bold hues! Since the eyes here have a lot of drama, you’ll have to keep the rest of the look neutral and simple. This is essential to maintain balance and look polished! To ace this look, you must start with a flawless, matte finish base. Apply a subtle blush and highlighter and a neutral lipstick. For the focal point, the eyes, wear a neutral eye shadow like a mauvish-pink or a neutral brown and top it up with bold eyeliner in your favourite colour. Add a bold wing to make the look stand out!
The Classics That Always Shine
This festive makeup look is a classic and will always be a huge hit. Achieve a dewy base and add a creamy, peach blush along with a shining highlighter. The main elements of this look are the bold lips coupled with neutral eyes adorned with heavily mascara-coated lashes.
The Minimalistic Glam
The minimalistic glam look is a major trend right now, adored by all. For this look, you need to start with a flawless and dewy base. Use a peachy or coral blush for your cheeks. For your eyes, you can use a neutral eyeshadow topped with subtle glitter. With a thin eyeliner on the upper lid, the lower waterline will be rimmed by a dark eyeshadow, such as a deep brown, grey, or plum. Finish the look with a lip gloss of your choice, and voila! You’re good to go.
Shine, Everything
With this look, you will surely shine as bright as the Diwali lights. This look requires a dewy base and a creamy blush and highlighter for that extra glow. Use a nice glittery eyeshadow for your eyes along with kohl on your upper and lower waterlines. Finish the look with a lovely neutral gloss and shine bright!
