Start with a clean canvas

Before painting your face and making a masterpiece, let us understand the importance of having a clean and well-hydrated face. Preparing your base is the secret to a mesmerising Navratri makeup look that lasts through hours of Garba. Use a gentle cleanser like Fragrance & Beyond Aromatherapy Activated Charcoal & Mandarin Facial Cleanser to give your skin a fresh start and eliminate all impurities and dirt.

Nourish your face with moisturiser

Think of this step as coating a canvas before you paint. You need to moisturise your skin for a flawless Navratri makeup look. Cetaphil Dam Daily Advance Ultra Hydrating Lotion moisturises and brightens your skin. It’s lightweight and absorbs into your skin fast. Here’s a pro tip: mix a drop of facial oil into your moisturiser for that extra dose of hydration.

Prep your base

A flawless base is a secret to artistic makeup. For Navratri, your makeup needs to stay intact to keep up with all the sweating and dancing to the tunes of Garba. Lyon Beauty USA 3 In 1 Primer Transparent Primer and Star Struck by Sunny Leone Liquid Concealer W113 natural finish concealer will give you that dandiya-ready makeup look. First, apply primer to your face to minimise the number of open pores; after that, with the help of a damp beauty blender, apply a thin layer of foundation and gradually build the coverage as needed. Remember to set your base using translucent powder.  

BB cream is a better option for the festive season as it doesn’t give you a cakey finish. Using a Trudiance DewyMatte Serum Foundation – Amber foundation will always be practical if you want to slay all night.  L.A. Girl HD Pro BB Cream Light/Medium Is a crowd favourite because of its multiple benefits.

Let your eyes sparkle

Let's talk about the eyes that never lie and make you look like a glowing butterfly. Use an eyeshadow palette with solid pigmentation. Light up the garba floor with a sensational smokey eye using Makeup Revolution Colour Book Eyeshadow Palette CB03.  When it comes to makeup, less is always more, so avoid going overboard with products. Try to enhance one prominent feature of your face for that captivating appearance.

Blush for that pink glow:

If you’re still confused about choosing a blush colour, keep your undertone in mind and get a blush that matches your natural flush after being out in the sun. Peachy blush, such as BlushBee Organic Beauty Natural Glow Blush Talc-Free Formula, goes perfectly with a warm tone, a cool tone pairs well with pink, and rosy shades turn heads when used by people with a neutral undertone.

Here’s how to make it work:

1. For dry skin, choose cream blush
2. Choose a powder formula for oily skin
3. Keep your cheekbone placement in mind and apply blush accordingly

Statement lips

Steal the spotlight this festive season by painting your pout. Apply a lipstick that echoes the joy of the season! Choose a berry red or stunning brown lipstick to complement your festive flair. If you are going heavy on eye makeup, opting for nude lipstick is advisable unless you want to go risqué.

As brown girls, we all know how irritating it is to apply lipstick on unevenly toned lips. Try these Cossouq-approved makeup tips to make Ellity Jelly Lips Lip Gloss Pretty Woke lipstick shade work.

The Glow-getter

Glitter and shine can make you look like a glowing firefly! Highlighter and shimmery eye shadows are the ‘fairy dust’ of your festive glam. Swiss Beauty Blusher SB-805 Highlighter Brick-01 Highlighter on your Cheekbones, nose bridge, and Cupid’s bow will make you look like a diva.

Setting the stage

A setting spray is the holy grail for long-lasting makeup. Hold the bottle about arm’s length away and spritz it on your face.  Setting spray helps lock in your makeup and prevent it from transferring. After spraying, allow it to dry naturally for about 30 seconds before you head out.

Makeup tips:

Sweating during long hours of garba may shorten the wear time of your makeup. For this reason, it’s essential to buy Navratri makeup products based on your skin type and longevity. If you have oily skin, use talc powder and mineral oil-based products for a mattifying effect. For dry skin, it’s advisable to use hydrating products enriched with aloe vera and glycerin for dry skin.

Post garba care:

You’ve danced through the night and spammed your Instagram with videos of you twirling in a chaniya choli. You’ve reached home, and it's time to care for your skin. All the sweat, dust, and makeup on your face can clog your pores and lead to breakouts. The Golden Handbook of Healthy Skin has a cardinal rule — sleeping in your makeup is the ultimate skincare sin.

Double cleanse:

We are here to guide you if you need to learn how to remove makeup. Start with an oil-based face cleanser and follow it up with rose water. Use Passion Indulge Natural Rose Water for Makeup Remover makeup remover to get rid of makeup residue and dirt. Rose water is a natural astringent that balances skin PH and tightens pores.

Rejuvenate and moisturise your skin:

Applying moisturiser to damp skin is considered ideal for sealing in moisture. Take two drops of face oil, activate it by rubbing it between your palms, and massage it into your face in a circular motion.

Upgrade your night-time routine with a face mask and night cream. You can always keep your touch-up kit handy for those moments when you require a little bit of prep. Pack a small touch-up kit with blotting or tissue paper, a compact powder, and a lip colour.

With Cossouq’s incredible range of Navratri makeup products, get ready to twirl in a choli and garba the nights away. Remember, the best makeup look is one that makes you feel beautiful. Experimenting with makeup might seem overwhelming, but reading this blog will make it easier.
