Indian festivals are all about socialising, getting together, dressing up and looking pretty. And just like the celebrations are lavish and colourful, the makeup for these occasions should also be appropriate and complement the attire you are wearing. Here are some festive makeup looks that will complement your festive outfit…
 

1. Soft Smokey eyes

Soft smokey eyes will look beautiful when worn with Indian wear. Once you have applied the base makeup, you can apply kajal on the waterline. We suggest you go with the Lakmé Absolute Precision Eye Artist Kajal and pick the black eyeshadow from the Lakmé Absolute Illuminating Eye Shadow Palette in Silver. Gently apply it under your eyes and over the eyeliner that you have applied. Make sure you blend the eye shadow carefully. Pair this look with a brick matte lipstick. This look will team well with any of your Indian outfits.

 

2. Kohled eyes and nude lips

Minimal makeup teamed with Kohled eyes is something that will make you look simple yet pretty. Apply the basic makeup and then use some Lakmé Absolute Gloss Artist Eye Liner in Black close to the lash line. You can add a nude shade of glossy lip colour to this look. Wear this makeup with your heavily embroidered outfits for a balanced look.

 

3. Bright Red Lips

Obviously, you want to doll up for the festivities each time. But if there is ever a time when you are short on time and need a makeup quick fix go for bright red lips.

A dressy outfit teamed with a perfect pout and some basic makeup can totally save the day when you don’t have the time for elaborate makeup. Just go with a red pout and apply some matte brown eye shadow on the lower lash line and a bronze colour on the eyelid. This will accentuate your lips even more. Wear the Lakmé Absolute Gloss Addict in Rustic Red for that perfect pout.
