Make-up Tips From Deepika Padukone

CONCEALER:
It can help hide dark circles, redness and blemishes. Used with foundation, it helps to achieve the flawless look. You can choose from liquid or stick concealers. Remember that concealer must be applied BEFORE your foundation. Choose a concealer that closely matches your skin tone, dot it on the trouble spots and blend well.

FOUNDATION:
When selecting your foundation, test it on your jawline. This will tell you immediately if it blends with your skin. You can apply foundation either on your bar skin on after using a moisturizer. Use your fingertips or a sponge. After dotting your face with foundation, remember to always blend it outwards. A matte finish gives medium to full coverage and delivers a no-shine look. A natural finish is meant to look like you’re not wearing any make up. It has light to medium finish and a non-powdery finish.

BLUSH ON:
Powder blush comes in a traditional compact and is applied with a brush. It provides a light, matte finish. Budge-Proof blush is cream-to-powder formula that is applied with a sponge applicator and lasts for hours.

EYE SHADOW:
A good eye shadow, which suits you, tends to enhance your look. Every woman can wear lavender and violet on the eyes, regardless of skin tone, because purple tones are a combination of warm red and cool blue and they flatter the skin. Besides this, green and pink eye shadows also look good.

MASCARA:
The current trend is a dramatic, open-eyed look, which can make you look extremely sensuous, says Deepika Padukone, brand ambassador, Maybeline New York. Mascara darkens and extends the tips of the eye lashes, making them look longer. It also separates each individual lash for a clean and natural look. While purchasing a mascara, remember that it must be ophthalmologist/dermatologist/allergy rested and safe for sensitive eyes/compact lens wearers.

LIPS:
The skin on the lips is extremely delicate and needs pampering. When deprived of care, it is susceptible to dehydration and cracking. So make sure that you do not compromise when buying lipsticks.
