Start with enhancing and hydrating your skin with a micro essence, prep your face using a good primer which helps you keep your makeup on for a longer time.

Add on a foundation best suited to your skin tone. Check the shades by swatching a few on your jaw line that match closest to your skin tone. Then, taking a concealer, apply it under the eyes, corners of your lips and any other area that may need some coverage.

Once you’ve set a perfect base, the next step is to amplify your facial assets. The highlighter is my favourite product, especially for the festive season as it draws attention to your already defined features with a touch of shimmer. A pop of rouge to your cheeks should do the trick, adding warmth and shine, letting light reflect of your cheekbones.
