Make-up for Starters

Must-Have for Natural and Soft look Makeup:-


1) Primer

Makeup primer base is a very essential step to start your makeup. It gives moisturising benefits for smooth makeup application. Try to pick a lightweight and uplifting formula while buying a primer. It will smooth your skin and make your makeup long-lasting. 

2) BB cream

A lot of people use Foundations and Concealers but I'll suggest using BB cream as an alternative if you are a beginner. I bought a foundation and it didn't suit me at all. But when I used BB cream, It made my makeup look more natural and soft. Pick a BB cream according to your skin tone. 

3) Eye shadows

If you are a beginner, chose nude and pinkish eye shades. I love pinkish and nude shades because it makes me feel more natural even in makeup. 

4) Eye pencil/kajal/liner

Black and Brown are two basic colours for eyeliner. I personally like Brown eyeliners but I found it hard to find. Use Kajal or Black pencil only if you have big and pretty eyes but if your eyes are small, don't use black because it will make it look smaller. Find nude or white pencil with smooth and fine texture for under eyes. 

5) Mascara

Mascara is one of my favourite makeup application because I don't have thick lashes. Pick a good waterproof and high volume Mascara. 

6) Face Powder 

A compact face powder is good for glowingly smooth and even-toned skin. Try to find a face powder which gives you flawless coverage and doesn't emphasise pores. 

8) Highlighter

Highlighters are really trending these days and it's my most favourite product. I mean who doesn't like luminous, lit-from-within glow skin? There are mostly four common shades of Highlighter or Illuminator:-

Luminous Gold, Bronze Gold, Rose Gold or Champagne.

Chose the shade according to your skin tone and buy a radiant look and long-lasting liquid highlighter. It will give your skin natural radiance and hydrating effect. 

7) Blush on

Just like Highlighters, Blush on are really In these days. I love rosy, flushed cheeks with shimmer look. If you are a beginner, plz try to choose light, and natural shades and apply on the apple of your cheeks and on the bridge of your nose. 

9) Lip oil/balm 

Lip oil or balm is perfect to use as a lip primer. They reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and give a subtle shine. They come in a lot of flavours like mint, lemon or strawberry and make your lips smooth, healthy-looking and hydrated. Don't go for expensive lip primers. Just replenish your lips with moisture before applying any lipstick. 

10) Lip pencil/stick/gloss

Again I'll say to beginners, whether its a lipstick or lip pencil or lip gloss, plz chose nude and pinkish shades for a natural and soft makeup look. 

11) Makeup Fixer

Last but not least, fix your makeup with just one spritz! A protective layer and a long-lasting finish are important for the finished look. So plz don't skip this step. Chose a non-irritative and refreshing makeup fixer.

 Bonus Tip:-

Makeup wipes/ Remover Tissues

Cleansing wipes like micellar water is a must-have product in your makeup pouch. Wherever you go, keep your skin clean and hydrated by the end of the day. Wipes and Tissues trap all your dirt and makeup.

Date: July 29, 2023 Time: 2:00 PM I woke up today, realizing my sleeping routine is all messed up again. In the midst of my grogginess, I had a vivid dream of my dear mother. I find myself writing this journal entry because I tend to forget my dreams quite often. It has been a year since I lost my mother, and it's been seven years since my adorable brother passed away. Over the years, I've had numerous dreams about them, but they always seem to fade away from my memory. Thankfully, my lovely aunt shared a wonderful idea with me: jotting down my dreams immediately after waking up, ensuring they stay alive in my memories. I've decided to follow her advice, especially when it comes to the dreams involving my mother and brother, so I can cherish their presence with me for a lifetime. Let's get started. In the dream, I found myself in an unfamiliar house, a large dark bedroom with an attached kitchen. I saw my mother going about her household chores, making the bed, while I ...

Hair Care Routine Hair care routine is as important as skin care. You just need to find what natural products work for you the best. Find your hair type or texture first; straight, wavy, curly or kinky? But there are some tips which work for all hair types:- Don't wash your hair everyday. I wash my hair once or twice a week with lukewarm water. Don't use hot water or it can dry it out. Always moisturize your hair by using conditioner . I saw alot of people skipping conditioner. But please don't ever do this. Our hair needs nourishment and hydration. Pick any good hair serum according to your hair type and apply after every hair wash on damp hair. It makes your hair look fresh, vibrant and healthy. I use Argon hair serum. Avoid using heat tools on daily basis. Go natural where possible. Try to use these damaging tools occasionally like for special event but dont forget to apply heat protection spray. Use a wide tooth-comb to detangle and avoid pulling hair. Get regular tr...
