- Clean Girl Chic- The Effortless Glow of Khushi Kapoor
If there is any makeup look that gives maximum vacation vibes, one would be the ever-famous Khushi Kapoor’s “clean girl chic” style! It looks fresh, is minimalistic, and allows you to show off your natural beauty: just perfect for your no-makeup days.
Start with a sheer and dewy foundation that gives you an “lit”-from-within kind of glow. A glowy base is what makes up that entire fresh-faced beauty look, so be sure to work light on the foundation for a breathable and totally flawless finish. Go for natural-looking but sculpted brows with your soft brown pomade. For the eyes, soft brown eyeshadow is your best friend; apply it very lightly all over your lids. Add a bit of eyeliner, smudge it a bit, and finish with a couple of coats of mascara to make them fluttery.
To contour your face, make gentle strokes on the cheekbones, jawline, and nose with the cream. For that sun-kissed, fresh look, apply rosy blush on the apples of your cheeks and the temples. The final touch? A touch of matte rose lipstick-wonderfully sophisticated and simple yet chic. - Golden Glam: Sobhita Dhulipala’s Sun-Kissed Glow
Nothing less than a golden sun-kissed glow ever feels like a holiday, and Sobhita Dhulipala surely gets it right each time. This look is most suited for the days when you want to break out of just the ordinary but still keep breezy and radiant vibes.
Using a bronzer all over the face will definitely warm up the complexion, providing that beachy sun-kissed look that we all want. Gold highlighter across the tops of the cheekbones, the bridge of the nose, and collarbones will create a beautiful glow that says “lit from within”.
For the eyes, lavishly apply rich gold shadow all over the lid, maybe with a few golden accents at the inside corners for a magic touch. A soft line of kohl along the tight line of the upper lash line gives definition without being too hard. Soft fluttery lashes will complete this look without compromising on the volume. For the lips, pick a nude hue that compliments the look, keeping it neutral and fresh. - Sparkles Are for the Win-Janhvi Kapoor’s Shimmering Vibes
No vacation makeup is complete without some sparkle, and Janhvi Kapoor is teaching us how to do it right. Vacay glam is the way to go when all you want is a shimmering eye look, perhaps while lying along the beach or sipping cocoa in the mountains.
First, dust the eyelids delicately with a layer of shimmering bronze eyeshadow that glitters and gleams with all sorts of light. Eyeliner in a smoky winged fashion will help to up the sultriness of this look that works for every hour. Mascara, then, would create quite the drama of volume on the lashes and complement that lovely shimmer.
Dust a warm tone of peach blush over the apples of the cheek just to give a little warmth to the face, balancing all that shimmer and adding a bit of weight to the look. Use a subtle nude lipstick for the lips, as this would be keeping everything fresh and light while allowing the attention to stay on the eyes. - Glazed Goddess-Kylie Jenner’s Dewy Dream
Kylie Jenner has always been the glow queen, and when we talk about vacation makeup, nothing can beat the dew-glazed finish. This is an ethereal glow that radiates your skin from the moment you step into sunlight.
For a soft, radiant glow, it all starts with a sheer foundation. Take it up a notch by mixing a drop of liquid highlighter with your foundation and glowing up your whole face with it. On the eyes, a soft wash of glittery baby pink eyeshadow dusted in the crease will serve the purpose. While the shimmer keeps the look soft and dreamlike, it is a great option for daytime outings.
Use very few strokes of eyeliner and keep the drama on the lashes with mascara for a fluttery, voluminous look. Gloss your cheeks with a soft pink blush to complement the glowy base, blending it outward for a natural flush. Keep that luminescent theme going all the way to the mouth with a pale pink gloss that provides a glossy plump. - The Classic No-Makeup Makeup – Subtle Glow of Shanaya Kapoor
Simplest is sometimes the best when it comes to holiday makeup, just as Shanaya Kapoor proves that a no-makeup makeup look can be stunning too. This subtle rendition is for those who just want to bring out their beauty without the feeling of having worn too much makeup.
Light, radiant foundation gives way to tinted moisturizer-enhancing of natural glow. Soft brown eyeshadow from neutral shades smudged subtly just enough for not-too-bold definition of your eyes. A quick lick of mascara just enough to define your lashes.
A little sparkle is always a good idea, so rub a little gold eyeshadow in the inner corners of your eyes. It will add just that little touch of sparkle to make the whole look feel special but not overly done. The next step is just filling in the brows for a little structure and finishing things off with a naked lip that feels almost effortless and chic. The look is all about enhancing your natural beauty with a few subtle enhancements.
