If your skin is oily or combination, look for foundation formulas that are balancing, matte, or cream-to-powder.
If your skin is normal or dry, pick satin, cream, or luminous finishes.
Consider investing in two concealers: peach- and pink-based liquid concealers work on under eye circles and yellow-based solid ones (the kind that comes in compacts or pots) cover blemishes and pimples.
Look for a translucent powder, which becomes invisible after application.
Go for bright, happy shades that instantly cheer up your skin.
While buying highlighter, think of words like ‘shimmering, glimmering and radiant.” Champagne is the easiest shade that suits all skin tones.
When looking for eye shadows, keep your complexion in mind. While pinkish beige shades go well with fair skin, warmer tones compliment the medium to dark skin.
Pick waterproof formulas while buying lipstick and eyeliner.
Voluminising and lengthening – that should be your mascara. Black is the safest choice – a color for all occasions.
Always remember, buy only good quality makeup products. Do not compromise with the health of your skin.
