#5 Care tips?

Some precautions need to be taken while applying Makeup. Before makeup make sure you have a clean face like an empty template to work upon. Your face must be properly moisturized, to begin with. Wash your face with gentle cleanser. Allow the moisturizer to sink in before going ahead with the makeup.

Essentially the initial step always should be to apply a primer for a flawless base. Primer hides and settles fine lines and wrinkles.

Use concealer or color corrective to conceal blemishes and under eye dark circles or any kind of scars that are hard to conceal while applying foundation. The golden rule for applying a foundation is to keep it to minimal and match it with your cheeks or chin for the perfect shade.

Keep a stock of good brushes at hand.

Don’t forget to wash your makeup before going to sleep.

#6 Any hairdo you would recommend, especially for parties before the festival? Something different to be tried?

A lovely hairstyle that really flatters can make your whole look bloom. Be careful; choose it according to your outfit. If baffled, go with soft romantic braids or romantic waves as it can add glamour to any outfit and offer you the most gorgeous and stylish festive hairstyle. If you’re planning to wear gowns or indo-western dress and you have Asymmetrical Bob or Mushroom Cut then apply gel nicely all over your hair & flaunt your sexy sleek hair.
