#Motd Decoding Karwa Chauth Makeup look

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.

Blush: Because its festive season and we Indians love wearing shine, i added Mac Mineralise Blush in the shade Warm Soul and Mac Sheertone Blush in the shade Fluer Power and this Mix gave me a perfect pink sheen for the cheeks.

MAC Satin Blush-Fluer Power

MAC Mineralise Blush- Warm Soul

Highlight; Mac Mineralise Skinfinish- Soft & Gentle because we can never have enough Highlight!

MAC Mineralise skim finish- Soft & gentle

Eyes: 

Primer: PAC Eyebase no 4

Eyeshadow: Morphe Eyeshadow palette 34F which is perfect for fall and it contains such versatile colors that go with all skin tones.

I used All pinks & oranges shade from the palette which i have already highlighted in the picture for your reference.

Apart from that i also added Mac eyeshadow in Passionate for that pop of color in the crease. 

Eyeliner: Loreal Paris Liner Magique 

Kajal & Mascara: Sugar Twist & Shout Fadeproof Kajal with Sugar Lash Mob Mascara which is my ultimate favorite. It is Dark Black and provides intense volume.

Also, my model had such Amazing Lashes.

Lips: 

I kept the lips really matte and colorful. 

I used MAC Retro Matte Lipstick- All Fired Up with a Prolongwear Lip pencil- Trust in Red.

So that's how i created this gorgeous Makeup for This karwa Chauth for my model.

How To Neutral Glowy katrina's Makeup Look.

Hello girls!!
So how many of you just love that healthy glowy and dewy looking face??

Three days back i posted a picture of a look that i created which was actually inspired by katrina again but it actually came out a little different though ! but i liked that so much so i thought lets just do it!!

And i became more happy knowing you guys liked it too and were asking how to do it so as i promised here is the tutorial for that look!!

So the key for this look is to keep makeup minimal and subtle yet dewy and glowy which gives a healthy glow.

Here is a little trick that i learnt from one of my favourite youtuber and Makeup Artist (gossmakeupartist) that only set your foundation at your T Zone and leave rest of the face as it is because when that foundation mixes with the natural oils of our face it become that dewy and glowy!!

But if you are using a foundation that sets to a powder finish like the latest one from L'Oréal paris magic nude liquid powder foundation then this trick might not work for you! because these kind of foundation generally sets to a powder finish and dont need anything else to set these so it might not work. I am not sure because i haven't tried it but just giving you an idea!

I have done my foundation as usual and i am not setting any area of my face right now and will apply a compact powder after finishing the rest of my makeup.

Moving onto eyes
1.first thing i am going to do is applying a base all over! You can use any primer or concealer and apply it all over your lid upto your browbone.
2. Then i am taking a nude eyeshadow and just going over that concealer because sometimes concealer / primer can be sticky and your eyeshadows wont blend on a sticky base!
3.Now just line your upper lashline with a black kohl pencil. U don't need to be perfect at this stage because we are blending it in a second. Apply the same kohl pencil to your upper rim of the eyes.
4.with the help of a smudger brush i am just smudging the kohl and even using my fingers to blend well so that there is absolutely no harsh lines. Make sure you aren't going too far because we are gonna be applying other color to the rest of the eye.
5. Taking an eyeshadow applicator(even a small paddle brush will work) i am just applying a black eyeshadow over it. Just do it very lightly and again blend. And when i say blend it means blend blend blend!!! Its the key to a flawless makeup!!






6.Apply a brown eyeshadow with the help of a blending brush of your choice on the rest of your eyelid which isn't covered by the black but don't go over your crease line because we aren't doing anything dramatic so keep your shadows in between this line.

7.Curl your eyelashes and apply one coat of mascara! Because its a subtle look i am not going over with my mascara. And eyes are done!

Now i am just setting my T Zone with a compact and applying a blush on to the apples of my cheeks and i am doing it in rolling motion and slightly taking towards my temples.
The blush i am using here is a peachy coral blush from revlon.
Ooooooo the fun part is coming! we are going to do a little highlighting i am using revlon highlighting palette in Peach glow and applying it on the cheekbone area (connect it with your temples) and a tiny bit on my nose and on cupids bow! I have a full tutorial on [How to Highlight Your Face bronzeblushbeauty26.blogspot.com/2014/09/howto-highlight-your-face.html]. You can click on the link to read full if you wish to :D


Lastly i am using a peachy nude lipstick and for this i am using a combo of two lip colors first i applied Faces Nude lipstick in Good Earth and then applied elle18 lipstick in pretty peach to get that in between shade! I just love this combo.
So here are the final pictures!!









I hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial and if you recreate this look then tag me in your pictures on FACEBOOK

How to last makeup all day long- all myths busted!

Hello girls!

Sorry for not posting since a very long time but i was not well (was hospitalised!) but now i am back and was very much excited to get back to my work which i absolutely love! :D yay posting again!

Today i am not reviewing any product but it is a very basic but very important aspect of makeup which is how to make the makeup last for a very long time!

We all buy high end brand products just in the hopes that it is gonna last long and expect so so much from them and end up getting disappointed and talking around this product is not good, not worth buying n blah blah! but it is not the product always which is wrong, sometimes it is what we are doing before and after applying makeup which makes a huge difference!

Apart from those primers and setting sprays and setting powders available we should take care of some very basic things which makes a tons of difference!

I am listing down below some common mistakes we guys make and we should take care of that and i can promise you guys will see a difference :D and to be very specific it is for beginners and not a pro level post so that everyone can understand it!

1.Buy products which are for your skin type! Yes this is the most common mistake we all make! Buy products whicha re suitable for your skin type but first get to know what skin type you are!
We have main 3 skin types
1.normal
2.oily
3.combination!

Normal skin type is the most blessed skin type because they can experiment with most of the products available :D

Oily skin beauties should opt for products which are tested for keeping oil away so that they feel comfortable throughout the day!

Combination skin type is also very common! if you get oil only around your nose, chin area and forehead and rest of your face is normal to slightly dry then you have a combination skin!

I think i should write a separate post on this because it is very technical topic and i can write so much on this :p but for this post i am just trying to say check the product if that is suitable for your skin type or not before buying!

2.check the compatibility between your foundation and moisturiser or primer whatever! :p now please dont shut because this is the most important step and the reason why i am writing this whole post!
I know it sounds a lil weird but this is the mistake we all people make normally most of the time!
Let me get straight into this!
So what we do when we start applying makeup! we first load up our face with a moisturiser and then a primer and then foundation! nothing wrong in this but wait something was wrong :p we never ever check the ingredients list which makes the whole lot of difference!
So foundation and moisturisers comes in two types!
One is water based and the other variant is oil based!
So now the question is how do we get to know that a particular product is either water based or oil based and what is the relationship of this with long lasting makeup!
The thing is very basic that water and oil are not compatible at all with each other and they don't get mixed!
For instance if your foundation is oil based and your moisturiser is water based or vice versa no matter what you do its not gonna last long as the foundation will slip away because oil and water are not compatible!
So try choosing a foundation and moisturiser of same variant! Either both water based or both oil based!!
So now the question arises that how do we get to know that a product is either oil based or water based!
Grab your foundation or moisturiser and try reading first four five ingredients from the ingredient list.
If you can see water at the very first and some oils name at the end then your product is water based but if some oils are listed on the top then it is an oil based product! Basically the companies write the name of the ingredient which are heavily used at the top and the least used at the end!
So the first four five products name will tell you the whole thing :D

3.last but not the least! Set your makeup properly :D simple and easy! i am gonna post a separate post on how to set your makeup and what products you guys can use to set your makeup!
I hope you like this post! :D if you do please leave any comments or suggestions or feedback below :D i love your replies so much! And don't forget to follow me on my social networking sites!

Stay tuned because i have something for you guys coming up soon!

Pink Black Eyemakeup Tutorial

Hello friends!!
I am back with a new makeup look! This look you can wear for typical indian traditional weddings or any occasion or may be for a night time look!!
So open Your vanities and lets get start it!!



STEP 1: Take an eyeshadow brush ( i am using health and glow angular blender brush, i know this is not for applying eyeshadow but it does this work very well!!) and pick some pinky purple eyeshadow and apply it to your mid eyelid.use patting motion and pat the colour on to the lid.Make sure to apply it only in the middle because we are going to apply some other color on the blank area!


STEP 2: Clean the shadow brush with tissue paper and then take a black eyeshadow and apply it to the rest of the eyelid. Reapply the colour until you get the blackest black on the inner and outer corner of your lid. Make sure that you are not taking the colour out of your crease area!
Now take a QTip or a blending brush and blend the black with the pink hue.use light hand because u dont wanna ruin the makeup u just did.Apply the black color on your lower lashline too.
Then it will looks something like the last picture in the above collage.



STEP 3: Its time to do your brows! Brow makeup is a necessary step of eyemakeup. Never underestimate its power it makes a huge difference! the makeup looks more precise and clean with it. So take a brown eyeshadow( which matches your brow colour and work the color in.. Follow the natural growth of your hairline.Apply a highlighting colour to your browbone.
After this apply a thin line of eyeliner and curl your eyelashes and apply two coats of your mascara.
Now you are done with eyes. Here is the final look for eyes.



For lips i m going with a strong lip colour. The standard rule says when you are doing a strong eye use a subtle lip colour to balance it out. But rules are meant for breaking!! :p
So m going with a bright lip colour which is very much similar to the pink colour i used for eyes. I am here using elle18 colour pop lipstick in hot pink( shade no 26).
Here is the final look!


I hope you enjoyed this!! Please leave your comments below (suggestions, feedback anything) it means a lot to me! For more Follow me on
