Believe it or not, but your handbag is your best friend, it is the hoarder of everything that’s dear to you. You rely on your handbag for a quick touch-up, Friday night parties, sudden getaway plans and everything in between.
However, today we’re here to help you unload everything your best friend is tired of holding for you and put only these 6 makeup must-haves that will do the work.
CC cream
A light-to-medium coverage CC cream or tinted moisturiser is easy and quick to apply. It covers minor imperfections on your skin and keeps it moisturised for a long time. The Lakmé 9to5 Naturale CC Creamis enriched with the goodness of aloe vera and covers blemishes and protects skin from external damage. However, if you can’t do without your foundation, feel free to go ahead and replace the CC cream with a foundation.
Lip balm
We cannot stress enough on the importance of a good lip balm. Apart from adding a surge of hydration to your lips, some lip balms give your lips a subtle tint and can also be used as a tinted highlighter during emergencies. Our go-to lip balm is the Lakmé Lip Love range of lip balms as they are smooth as butter and keep lips moisturised for up to 22 hours.
Red lipstick
It is a saviour on so many occasions and no makeup bag is complete without a beautiful red lipstick. On days when you’re too lazy to apply layers of makeup on your face, a red lipstick compensates for everything. It focusses all the attention on your lips. Especially the Lakmé Kareena Kapoor Khan Absolute Pout Definer in Fearless Red, it gives you pout-worthy lips in a few seconds and looks fantastic on all occasions.
Nude lipstick
Red lipsticks are great but on days when you want to sport a no-makeup look or an MLBB look, nude lipstick comes to the rescue. The Lakmé Absolute Matte Melt Liquid Lip Color in Mild Mauve is a stunning, long lasting mauve shade that is comfortable to wear and gives a matte finish.
Mascara
A woman can achieve anything when her mascara game is on point! Add drama to your look and volume to your lashes with a few strokes and look like a million bucks at any party or meeting. The Lakmé Eyeconic Curling Mascara makes your eyes look fresh and awake quickly and does not flake!
Eyeliner
We’re not talking about just any eyeliner here, look for one that allows you to create a sleek cat eye as well as a smudged smoky eye look. The Lakmé Kareena Kapoor Khan Absolute Eye Definer gives you the best of both worlds!
