Come the chilly time of the year, the occasions and the events are unending and so is our constant battle with dry skin issues. Worry not, we have a list of swaps that will make you glow this festive season. For it is not just your wardrobe that needs a winter makeover but your precious beauty routine too!
- Moisturize: The cruelest thing about winters is how harsh it can be on the skin, so the very first step before even applying makeup is to lather the skin with a good amount of moisturizer. That not only nourishes the skin from within but also provides a good base for the makeup to be set on. We would recommend options like coconut oil or aloe vera and shea butter that also comprises of SPF.
- Avoid matte base foundations: With the increasing amount of chapped skin, it is better to choose a cream base foundation that does not soak up the moisture easily. Cream foundations look translucent on the skin and lends it a dewy and supple glow.
- Swatch matte lipsticks for lip-glosses: Chapped lips are a common sight during winters and to avoid that and to make your lips shine and pop, swap mattified lipsticks for long lasting lip-glosses. Lip-glosses tend to hydrate the lips and provide a sheen finish to your look. From warm nude shades to bold red ones, there are a variety of lip-gloss tones one can choose from. If you're not sure which lip shade to choose from, then here's a quick guide on Lipstick shades for every occasion in your life.
- Primer with SPF: Winters are also a time of increased exposure to the sun with the innumerous day events lined up, it is crucial to wear sunscreen on a daily basis. However, with the different makeup bases being layered one tends to skip the sun protection sometimes. That's where primers infused with SPF come in, while setting the base they also nourish the skin and help protect it from the harsh UV rays, making it a must do step during winter beauty routines.
- Blush it up: âTis the season to be jolly and what better way to take advantage of the dipping temperatures than to load up on blush? Be it a mellow peach or a subtle rose, blending the color to the apple of your cheeks is sure to amp up any occasion during the festivities.
