Hello IMBBians,
I hope everyone is doing great in their lives. Today, I am going to share some tips and tricks for girls like me who do not put much makeup on or are new to makeup and are looking for easy ways to glam up, on most of the days. So let’s get started.
Keep lip crayons handy
If you lack the patience to put on a proper lipstick, keep a lip crayon handy. These cute chubby crayons can be used on-the-go and you don’t even require a mirror for the sheer ones. Also, they have the minimal chance of going wrong. If you have to carry just one makeup product with you on the way to college or work, keep a bright orange or nude chubby stick in your purse.
Fake a good night’s sleep with a beige or white eyeliner
Apply a white (if you have a very bright complexion) or beige (if you have a typical Indian-skin tone) on your waterline to fake wide-awake eyes. This trick will also make your under-eye dark circles less prominent. However, this trick is no substitute for soothing eye gels and 8 hours of sleep.
Mascara is your best friend
Even if you suck at applying eyeliner, you can still define your eyes with the help of mascaras. Keep a lengthening and a volumising mascara handy and apply a coat of each for big beautiful eyes.
Tame your brows with a clear mascara
I strongly agree with the statement that we still need makeup to look natural. Since eyes are the first thing that people subconsciously notice when they first see each other, it makes sense to groom the eyebrows too. If you are not a pro at filling and shading your brows but still want them to be in an acceptable state, simply brush them with a coat of clear mascara to keep all the unruly hairs at the place.
Sheet masks are the “in” thing
So, if you don’t have time for those long parlour trips and detest mud packs that keep dripping and falling off, fret not. Try sheet masks loaded with antioxidant rich serums instead. As an added bonus, you can totally move around with them and do household chores, but we do not recommend that. Since that beats the whole idea of relaxation session.
Have happy hair with dampen braids
If you suck with curling tongs, make two thick braids, wet them and go to sleep. Rest assured that you will wake up with fabulous hair the next morning. The only con with this trick is that we do not recommend you try this in winters. Else, you will wake up with fabulous hairs + blocked sinus.
Easy glamour under 3 minutes
If you still want to use your tongs since you have invested huge amounts in it but are lazy at the same time, pull your hair up in a ponytail and part the hair in 4-6 sections. After that, curl each section and wait for your hair to cool down. Then, take off the rubber bands and VOILA! There are some very sexy beachy waves.
Spot conceal blemishes
If you do not have the patience or skills to do a full-face airbrush finish foundation, spot conceal with your favourite concealer instead and then apply loose/translucent powder all over your face. This will hardly take 5-7 minutes and will leave you with a flawless complexion.
Befriend coral blushes
If you want to rock in a beach party, nothing can beat a good coral blush. Also, if you did not sleep well last night and still want to be recognised as a human and not a zombie in the society, pick up a universally flattering peach and swipe it on your cheekbones for instant glamour. As for recommendations, we love how well NARS Orgasm works on Indian skin tones.
That’s all for today, girlies! Hope this helps! See ya all next time! 🙂
