Are you often confused as to what to carry on day to day basis, for a party or while travelling in your handbag? Many women have asked us at AAW, that what emergency makeup products to carry in their handbag.Well, with science giving makeup an innovative makeover, it has become easier to carry one product that solves all the makeup issues. Here’s a list of all of makeup products which cover any cosmetic emergency:
Lip stain: A lip stain is the best to achieve dewy finish on your lips and cheeks. Plus, the colour is buildable, so if you want more apply more coats. For Indian skin tones shades of pink lip stain work better than blood red ones. Personally I always ditch lipcolours and blushes and carry a stain instead. Not only its easier to carry, it lasts way longer than blushes and lipsticks.
Kohl: No Indian woman can live or like a no-kohl look! The best way is to buy a smaller size (Sephora does a cute nano version) or simply keep your old one in the bag and buy a new one for home. If you keep only one Kohl you will forget to carry it, buy a budget priced one like Lakme eyeconic, so that even if it is misplaced, it won’t hurt your pocket.
Blotting paper: Indian summers are terrible and often many of us sweat which makes the skin oily. Now instead of washing it or using a face wipe that will clean all the makeup, pick up blotting paper. Just slide a sheet or two in your bag. Dab the sheet for an oil-free face that will last hours. Oriflame makes good blotting sheets but you could also try using butter paper!
BB Cream: BB cream has certainly changed many a makeup routine. Gone are the powders, foundations and concealers. This product does et all and gives you flawless skin. You can try a budget one like Garnier or a high-end one from Sephora.
