The outfit, accessories, shoes and bags are all important, but your party makeup can make or break a look. And with the party season in full swing and a New Year’s plan in motion, you need to make your #OOTN look fab – just like you! So whether you’re getting together at home, heading to a house party, or going for dinner-and-dancing with friends, we’ve curated some step-by-step party makeup tutorials that will help you get your glam on! But first, let’s learn how to set the right base for party makeup that’s long-lasting and won’t smudge before the big countdown.
1. The Right Primer Choosing the perfect primer for your skin type is very essential. Primer is meant to prepare your skin for all the makeup that you will be applying. Also, you must have watched makeup tutorials on YouTube and the first step before you touch the makeup with your skin is to apply a primer. Apply a pea-sized amount on your fingertips and massage gently on your cheeks, the T-region, chin, and the bridge of your nose. Make sure you apply the primer on these areas as they hold the maximum amount of makeup.
2. The Perfect Foundation Now, when it comes to foundation, all of us fumble and fall. But it’s no rocket science. Select the right shade that will give you full coverage, both on your face and neck. If you are unable to select the right shade, choose any three shades closer to your skin colour, apply them on a small area of your skin and see which one blends best and makes your skin look most natural. That is your perfect foundation tone. A strong and full coverage foundation is very important when you are getting ready for a party.
3. The Magic Concealer A concealer is indeed a magic maker. It is useful in every possible way- to cover those scary dark circles. To hide those pimple spots or redness. It is always a win-win situation when it comes to a concealer. Take a decent amount and apply it under your eyes, on your blemishes or marks. This helps you get rid of any discolouration. There are colour correctors that even out your skin tone. Blend them all and get that flawless look!
4. The Lock-In Setting Powder Always finish your base with a setting powder. It locks the base and prevents your makeup from peeling off. Use a sponge or a brush to slide some powder on your face and you are good to go. Must-Try Product: Maybelline New York FitMe Setting Powder will keep your makeup locked-in even after a night of dancing. After you’re done with your perfect party make-up base, you need to start with your party look! But if you don’t have an eyeshadow palette, then watch this amazing hack and learn how to use lipstick as an eyeshadow!
