My Monsoon Makeup Essentials

Posted on August 22, 2016 by To The Gorgeous You

Hello Lovelies!! Happy Monsoon!! I like the Rainy Season most.It is my favorite season .I enjoy it a lot as environment becomes so clean and green all around.Smell of mud and fresh air makes me cool and happy. Greenery,clear sky,fresh flowers everything looks nice in Monsoon ,but for makeup lovers the season becomes a challenge as humidity level increases and rain can ruin your makeup.So today I am sharing My Monsoon Makeup Essentials to protect your makeup all day.I usually avoid dense makeup and choose light and sheer makeup in Monsoon.

Face: Use BB Cream or Light water based foundation to keep your face hydrated and glowing all day rather than looking washed out in monsoon.I use Lakme CC Cream or Maybelline Super fresh Compact for my makeup base .These two products are my absolute favorite and I can use them all season.

FB_IMG_1471857746163~2

2. Cheeks: Use cream blush .It will stay long. Natio Blush & Bronzer palette is my absolute favorite.The palette contains beautiful shades of blush and bronzer.The formula comes in cream n powder base which gives sheer and natural look.

3. Eyes: For eyes waterproof makeup is required in monsoon and my NaturStudio all day wear Kohl by Plum does great job .It gives brilliant black color and stay all day without smudging .I use this pencil as a kajal or liner to define my eyes.

4. Lips: Matte lippies are best choice in Monsoon. Lakme 9to 5 (Plum Pick), Maybelline Color show Creamy Matte Lip-color or Sugar Matte As Hell Crayon are my favorite and gives perfect Matte finish .

FB_IMG_1471857759474~2

Tips and Tricks for Monsoon Makeup:

Use Minimum makeup.
Avoid Glitter or Shine.
Use waterproof Kajal or Mascara.
Always use Sunscreen before stepping out in sun.
Use good Astringent/Toner daily.
