Eyes will always be the first medium of expression and experiment to let the beholders appreciate the beauty.

Less is everything
We have stayed home, indulged in self-care and umpteen DIYs to take good care of our skin all of last year. So, the makeup trend that is catching up is going bare, natural foundation to bring out the dewy glass skin that only raises the bar of beauty. With shades of nude, light highlighters that accentuate natural skin-like finish using all the protection and benefits of a non-shiny, soft foundation that spreads radiance!

Vocal for local
Fortunately, our recent slow lives and economies have shed light on the importance of homegrown labels, boutique and artisanal brands that are creating quality products in the field of makeup. Many adopt these clean beauty brands closer to home, trying and exploring their distinctive products for their makeup regime and comfort. This supportive trend is, hopefully, a shining star away from the mainstream.

All hail stain
We all can swear by a juicy tangerine lip or a bold red that some days saves our mood and glow, while on some days it’s that perfect standing element of confidence! With the masks entering our lives – lip stains have smoothly entered all our dressing shelves so that there is no proof of makeup transferring onto our mask. A good, hydrating lip stain stays for almost 12 hours without any lip lines or flaking, just the scintillating shade of your choice.
