Ditch smokey eyes, say hello to mascara
Being a new mother, there’s no way you’re going to have enough time for a complicated smokey eye. However, a simple swipe of mascara can help give your sleepy eyes a major wake-up. Try the Lakmé Eyeconic Curling Mascara for intensely curled lashes, achieved in less than a minute!
Use kajal to fill in brows… YAAS!
Did you know? Your kajal can help tightline your eyes as well as fill in your brows too. If you’re someone who loves to step out with kohl-rimmed eyes, then you can quickly fill in your brows simultaneously without reaching out for a separate eyebrow stick. Saves time, right?
Swap your regular foundation with a tinted moisturiser
Ditching your regular foundation for a tinted moisturiser will not only save time, moisturise your skin, but also give it a healthy glow. Get your hands on the Lakme Complexion Care Color Transform Face Cream that’ll give you a makeup like finish.
Lip balm—for lips and cheeks
Sticking to your usual makeup routine can get taxing (thanks to motherhood!). At such times, it’s best to put one product to multiple use. Did you know? Your lip balm can work two ways. While it prevents your lips from chapping, it can also be used to highlight your cheekbones. Try it new mommy!
