By now, we’ve made it more than evident that the monsoons can be a real dampener when it comes to the hair and makeup department. But still, we’ve managed to come up with a great way to add some colour to these long, grey days. Here’s how…
 

Lakmé Absolute Skin Natural Mattreal Mousse

It’s a well-known fact that the humidity can make wearing makeup in the monsoons quite a task! The real trick is to find a base good enough to hold in place whatever little makeup you’re wearing. We struck gold with the Lakmé Absolute Skin Natural Mattreal Mousse that gives us the coverage of a foundation and the texture of a compact. Plus, it’s light enough, which means you’ll be wearing an almost au naturel look. Since it’s smooth enough to glide across the skin and give us a flawless finish, we’re making this our go-to base for these four rainy months.

With the monsoon putting a cap on our experimentation with makeup, we’ve begun to rely on the bare necessities to add some colour to our face. Our latest favourites are the Lakmé Absolute Drama Stylist Shadow Crayons that come in eight super stunning shades and can be used as eyeliners as well as eyeshadows. They’re also so crease-proof and smudge-proof, something that makes us believe they were made for girls just like us who insist on looking pretty even through a torrential downpour. Plus, once you’re done, you’ll notice that they give your eyes a professional high-shine finish. With a pay-off this good, we’re loading up on all of our favourite shades to add some colour to these gloomy days.

Summer’s over and winter’s a long way away, but after a bout of seriously dry (and burning) lips last year, we vowed to take good care of our pout all year round. For that extra TLC, we found ourselves Lakmé’s 9to5 Crease-less lip balm that gives us the benefits of a balm with the coverage of a lipstick. Enriched with SPF 15 to give your lips sun protection and olive and jojoba oil along with Vitamin E, it’ll nourish your lips and keep them protected no matter what the season.
