5 Makeup Tips for Rainy Days
Your skin needs special attention and care in monsoon as the climate is wet and humid. This also applies for makeup. Skip loud and heavy makeup this monsoon and opt for a subtle look. Loud makeup tends to look dull and does not stay for long because of the moisture in the air. Listed below are some makeup tips for monsoon.
1. Apply a base foundation
In order to hide all the blemishes and marks on skin, use a concealer. This will hide all the dark patches on skin. Or else, opt for a base foundation on skin. The foundation shade should be natural and similar to your skin tone. Mineral waterproof foundation would be perfect for monsoon, as it will help to give a natural effect to the skin. Blend a waterproof foundation with a moisturizer and apply it all over the face. Foundation can be applied only if required, or else one can skip it during monsoons.
2. Apply natural blusher
Do not opt for cream based blushers in monsoon. They can leave patches on skin due to moisture in the air. Instead, opt for powder blush with a simple color. Colors like peach and pink would go well with natural foundation shade. Do not use a shimmer or sparkle; it should be completely avoided in monsoons.
3. Apply natural lip shades
Lip makeup should be minimal in monsoons. Apply a base color on lips such as pink or brown. You can easily skip lip makeup and opt for lip gloss. Opt for a waterproof lip gloss this monsoon and feel good. Natural shades are the safest bet in monsoons. Do not apply dark colors, as it will tend to look loud in monsoons.
