The Posh Affair X Khimaar

This blog post is mostly going to be about how to look classy and not overdone with make-up and 2 pieces of cloth over your body.
Let’s get it straight, a lot of you may be thinking when it comes to night glam, its all about loud glitters, bold eye make ups and undying layers of foundation, but seriously, learning to go easy on your skin is necessary. It’s not a lot of make up that makes you look good, but to know the ways to apply the right amount of everything on your face.

To me, the whole point of make up is to look presentable in a way where people may indirectly pass judgements like, “gosh, she’s wearing too much make-up”!

Well people will judge anyway, but let’s learn to make it worthwhile, shall we?

The whole point of makeup

Is to look like you’re not wearing any. And also to perfect your complexion, enhance your features and make you look prettier. I firmly believe that we all need to work on nailing the natural look FIRST.

You should be spending at least 50% of your makeup application time on your SKIN

The good news is that there are so many skin-perfecting products now that do the job without being heavy or at all detectable.

HOW TO NOT LOOK OVERDONE:

Finding the right makeup to wear when you’re going for a natural look can be more complex than you think. You don’t want anything too cakey, too bright, or too dark. And we all know, that looking natural does indeed require SOME makeup application – and some skill, too.

1. Moisturize. Creating a the perfect base for your makeup is very important. Moisturizer benefits your skin by hydrating, and promotes anti-aging benefits. It will even out your skin texture creating a perfect palette to begin your makeup routine.

2. Conceal. Hide away any dark circles, fine lines or blemishes with a concealer. This will get rid of any imperfections and leave your skin looking flawless.

3. Powder or light foundation. I recommend to use a powder or an airy liquid foundation. The illusion that we’re going for is natural makeup, so using a thick cakey makeup doesn’t make sense. Be sure to apply evenly with a brush or sponge for an even, non-streaky, look and your face will appear naturally perfect.

4. Subtle blush. Depending on your skin color, blush colors will vary – but peaches tend to look great on everyone. Blend in to your natural cheekbone line where pink undertones normally show.

5. Neutral shadows. Apply a neutral color over your lids for a muted but beautiful eye. Choose a color that is just a shade or two darker than your skin tone. If you want to go for a glam look, brush your crease with a bit darker shadows to make it look more dramatic.

6. Nude lip. When choosing a lip color, go for the light pinks, peaches and sand colors. Always remember, when you have a bold, dramatic eye look, go for muted shades of lipstick. Dark eyes and dark lips are an utter disastrous combo.

7. A little or a lot of Mascara. applying atleast 3 layers of mascara gives a 100/100 points on a perfect dramatic glam look.

8. Yes liner. Eyeliner is great for a dramatic eye. Don’t apply any eyeliner or kajal on the bottom. Invalidates the whole purpose of looking pretty with makeup.

Last but not the least,

Dress classy.

Dressing up matters so much to elevate your look from looking homeless to flaunting on the red carpets. This black cape from Khimaar collection is a statement piece and I’m so in love with how it instantly gives a posh vibe when you walk literally anywhere.
The color black will forever have an undying demand, and it surely made a place in my heart,especially with those 3D floral hand works.
