Events like baby showers are generally preferred in the outdoors which makes it ideal for soft baby theme colours. For a special occasion like this, it’s important that the mother wears soft colours to flaunt the baby bump. I just can’t forget my friend’s baby shower makeup it was so dull which made her look pale instead of glowing. Doing the right kind of makeup for a baby shower is very important as the mum to be should look the best. The focus should be on eye make up as eyes does a lot of talking. Celebrity make-up artist and stylist, Naunidh Singh, suggests few simple tricks to to look perfect on your baby shower
-
baby shower makeup If you want to get the look right, spend an extra minute on the eyes. Prepare your lids with a shadow primer which will help create a barrier between your skin and the make-up, also helping the shadow pigments pop. It will help keep the make up longer, by preventing it from all the pregnancy sweat.
- Going by the latest trends and the weather, choose a nice and warm neutral shade as it works best on Indian skin, something like ‘all that glitters’ from Mac. Pat the eye shadow on the lid and blend it upto the crease. Remember do not go over the crease.
- With a dome brush, which is also known as a pencil brush, blend a darker shade in the outer corner going upwards towards the brow until it’s blended nicely. This will give you dimension! You may use ‘Mulch’ by Mac for the same.
- To highlight under the brow bone and the inner corner of the eye select a lighter shade .Avoid stark white , go for an off white or a champagne colour instead. This will make your eyes look bigger.
- If you love to sparkle, then go ahead and use glitter! The trick to getting a beautiful glittery lid is Glitter Glue. Otherwise, it’s going to get everywhere and make a mess. Use a small amount of Glitter Glue and pat it over top of the shadow you have already applied. Do not rub or your shadow will come off.
- Next, tap a little of your glitter into the lid of the container. Use your brush to pick up a small amount of glitter – gently press onto your lid. It may be a good idea to hold a tissue under your eye to catch any glitter that falls. If it does fall anyway, remove it using powder brush.
- Now comes my favourite part , top it all with a winged eye liner and lots and lots of mascara. You may use Kajal if you like .
- Do not forget to define your brows . Use a dark matte brown eye shadow to fill your eye brows. A simple eye brow brush will do the trick.
- Now clean up your under eye and prep your face by moisturising well. Go ahead and use your primer, correctors, foundation and create a natural looking Base.
- Don’t forget to highlight those cheek bones and contour your face well with bronzer suiting your skin tone . It will also reduce the puffiness.
- Use a rosy or a peachy blush according to your attire and finish up with a nude lipstick.
