karwa chauth makeup look -indian festive makeup 2017

 And the Festive Series continues...
So I didn't plan to make it a series but i am enjoying how everything is falling into place by itself and i am able to create a lot of looks for this festive season.So today's post is about Karwa Chauth makeup look which is falling on this Sunday 8th Oct. 
I created this look for my last class where i was teaching my students about Makeup which is apt for Karwa Chauth.Also if you are from Bangalore and wants to enroll for my Personal/Professional classes then do leave me an email at Vandanagandhir@gmail.com

So Let's Break down the makeup step by step.
Base:
I started off the Makeup using Mac Prep+Prime Natural Radiance primer to start off the base.I love this primer because it gives me a smooth base to work on with and it pretty much suits all skin types.

Foundation:  I used my trusty Mac Studio Fix Fluid foundation as a base in the shade NC-40 for her followed by Mac Studio Finish Concealer-NW35. It's a full coverage concealer which has plenty of shades so you will definitely get one for yourself! 
My model had round face so i added little highlight contour using the same studio finish concealer palette-Medium Deep.
I did set the base with Mac Select Sheer powder because the makeup is already heavy and select sheer powders are really lightweight.

Eyes: Every Indian woman love gold and bronze tones on her face and that's exactly what i tried to Replicate on her eyes for that little drama that is going on. I blended a peachy copper tone onto her eye with a Pink eyeshadow in her crease. I Added a dark purple almost like a Brown colored matte eyeshadow onto the outer corner to create a 3D look and just a touch of black to further intensify.
Lastly, i added an eyeliner which is gonna take the look a notch up and since its festive season i decided to add a double wing. I applied a skin colored eye pencil to further open up her eyes and a nice white wing in between those two outer wings. 
Lashes were to complete the full look and it definitely made a huge difference.
