Look like a diva this winter


Winter makeup doesn't mean you have to look washed out. Here are some trends you can choose from to look like a diva this season.

Bold lips: A statement
pout is an evergreen trend. So go ahead, dab on some fiery red lipstick and turn heads. Make sure you line your lips well before the application so that your pout doesn't look smudged. Also, if you are going heavy on the lips, keep the eyes kohl-free. Just dab on some gold eyeshadow to highlight your brows and mascara to open up your eyes.

Pink blush: In winter, the skin often looks dry and pale. Blush is a good way to create the illusion of rosy chheks. To apply the perfect brush of blush, suck your cheeks in and apply blush on the apple of your cheeks. Don't overdo it. Round off with neutral or light pink gloss and dewy eye makeup.

Nature inspired: Nature inspired trends are in this season. Use an eye quartet that has the colours of autumn like gold, browns and beige. Alternatively, if you are bold enough, go for white eye makeup: white liner, white shadow with silver accents.

Go goth: Dark eyes and lips make a gothic combo. But this winter play it up with a twist: use metallic eye shadow instead of the susal opaque black. For the lips, go for a glossy scarlett or deep maroon.
