How to look beautiful this Diwali

This Diwali, if you plan on doing your makeup at home, then you are going to love this video – How to look beautiful this Diwali

Diwali is a festival that I really look forward to, as one gets a chance to be with family, enjoy the firecrackers, eat sweets, wear pretty makeup and look beautiful 🙂 Many of us do our Diwali makeup at home, and want an easy makeup tutorial that makes us look beautiful. This look took about 20 minutes to create, and the video contains detailed steps on how to achieve this beautiful Diwali look.

I love to decorate my house with beautiful lighting and diya’s. So, this video is inspired by the colors that one sees in the flames of the diyas. That is why I have used shades of gold and maroon so that the essence of Diwali stays with you 🙂

The steps followed to achieve this look are quite simple, and are listed below. The video of course gives a detailed explanation on how to do each step.
Basic prep for how to look beautiful:
1. Start with a face wash.
2. Apply a lip balm to remove dryness from lips. This will help us later in step 15.
3. Moisturize the skin to get a beautiful fresh base, followed by a primer.
FACE:
4. Use a foundation that suits the exact tone of the skin
5. Use a concealer on areas that the foundation did not cover (e.g. under eyes)
6. Put some loose powder all over to give it….
EYES:
7. Use the eye shadow primer and and pick a cranberry shade for the eyelids.
8. Blend. Blend. Blend. I use a MAC 217.
9. Add gold shadow in center. Blend more 🙂
10. Use a brown shade in the crease so that all the colors look blended.
11. Highlight and fill in eye brows, apply kajal, smudge some black under the waterline and draw liner with gel liner.
12. Curl lashes add fake lashes and mascara.
FACE (again):
13. Add a contour.
14. Finish with a blush.
LIPS:
15.  Finally lip liner, lipstick and lip gloss.
And you are done!
So I hope that you try this look and try this makeup at home on this Diwali!
