Winter Enchantress!

Cold winds, early sunsets and misty mornings. This can only mean one thing – the winter season is upon us! While the cold weather may bring in the chills, it gives you an opportunity to experiment with auburn tones which might be too dark to carry off during the summers. The cold weather allows for dusky colours and shimmer to complement your personality. It is the perfect time to get dressed, sip a steaming cup of coffee and leave behind the gorgeous red coloured impression of your lips on the mug.

The winter season not only enables you to experiment with deeper colours, it also brings out the different sides of your unique persona. Imagine yourself adorning a glamorous black attire with vermillion coloured lips and a pair of stilettos. Complete your look with glittery eyes and highlights. Now, that’s quite a pretty sight, isn’t it? There are many makeup styles and techniques you can try this winter. Here is a comprehensive guide for how you can experiment with your look this season.

Lips

Let us begin with the focal point of where all your inherent charm comes from – your lips. The first step to making your lips pout ready is to start by moisturising them properly with a decent amount of lip butter or lip moisturiser. This is a reliable way of ensuring that your lips are never dry or chapped. Darker shades of lipsticks and other lip products may not be conducive for the summers; however, the days of cold winds are for dark browns, deep reds, maroons, magentas and aubergines. A rich tone of maroon can work wonders when teamed with smokey eyes. It adds an edge to your look by bringing forth an intensified tone. Inspired by the golden days of the retro era, shades like mahogany, scarlet and merlot are the current favourites for this season. Dark browns and mauves create a mysterious and sultry look. Nothing works better than deep browns, be it for office hours or an evening coffee date.
