The Art of Matching Makeup with Your Outfit

Your outfit sets the stage, but your makeup brings the look to life. Coordinating your makeup with your attire doesn’t mean you are overdoing it but it’s about enhancing your natural beauty and complementing the colors, fabrics, and detailing of your outfit. Like soft pastel suits, which are also in trend these days, pair beautifully with dewy, fresh makeup, while richly embroidered silk sarees or lehengas can handle bolder lips and defined eyes. 

Karwa Chauth Makeup Looks for Different Types of Sarees

Banarasi or Silk Sarees

You can always count on a red Banarasi or a silk saree to make you look like a bride all over again. Go for bold red or maroon lips with Pout Perfection Non-Transfer Lipstick, winged eyeliner and a subtle highlighter to give you that bridal glow. 

Chiffon or Georgette Sarees

Light and flowy sarees like chiffon or georgette are perfect for soft, romantic makeup. Go for nude shades of lipstick with shimmer eyeshadow in gold or champagne tones. Create soft wings by using Auto Kajal and Professional Eyeliner and add natural blush for a dewy, fresh look. To add a little more subtle glow, highlight the inner corners of the eyes and the high points of the face to complement the breezy elegance of the saree.

Designer or Pre-Draped Sarees

You can always experiment with the Indo-western style saree ideas as with these you don’t have to follow the traditional makeup look like you would do with a Banarasi saree. Keep base light and focus on creating a mesmerizing eye look with Makeup Forever Eyeshadow Palette shades like rose gold or bronze paired with a matching lipstick with your outfit. Go for a well-defined winged eyeliner and volumizing mascara to make your eyes pop.

Makeup Looks with Suits and Anarkalis

Simple Suits

Lightweight suits are best for your daytime pooja rituals, as most of your time will go in preparing for pooja and you will need a comfortable outfit. This outfit calls for a fresh and effortless makeup approach that enhances your natural beauty. Prepare your base with Beauty Booster Foundation and add peachy blush for a natural look. Keep eyes subtle with a thin line of eyeliner, a coat of lengthening mascara, with neutral eyeshadow. Finish off with a soft pink hydrating lipstick. 

Heavily Embroidered Suits or Anarkalis

When your outfit has rich embroidery or embellishments, your makeup can be slightly bolder to balance the look. Use High Coverage Waterproof Base Foundation to create base with light contouring. Enhance your eyes with winged eyeliner, kajal, and metallic shimmer on the lids for a striking effect. For lips, choose berry, plum, or deep red shades that complement the richness of your attire, preferably a long-lasting matte formula. Use Vit. C & E Makeup Fixer to lock your makeup till evening celebrations.

Makeup Looks with Lehengas

Traditional Heavy Lehengas

Karwa Chauth is the perfect occasion to relive the moments of your wedding day and especially new brides often choose to wear their bridal lehengas. These heavy, traditional lehengas deserve equally regal makeup. Prepare the base flawlessly with Face Primer and use full-coverage foundation. Always go for deep, statement lips in shades like ruby or burgundy using a long-wear matte formula and pair them with winged eyeliner and bold, sculpted brows to frame the face. A glowing highlighter and a little blush on the cheekbones will add a radiant, bridal-like shimmer. 

Pastel Lehengas

Light and romantic pastel lehengas are ideal for women who prefer a dreamy look but want to keep their appearance light. For these outfits, opt for a medium-coverage foundation, for a dewy base with soft peach or pink blush and Magic Colors Lip Gloss for a glossy finish on your lips, to keep the whole look fresh and airy. Eyes can be enhanced with soft shimmer shades, a thin eyeliner and mascara. Put highlighter to create a radiant glow that complements the color palette.
