Matchy-matchy has never looked this good, trust me, but with the recent onslaught of monotone eyeshadow, we can see how this might become a thing.
And wait a minute, burgundy lips have been quite the rage this year too. So add some subtle eyeshadow, and together this forms one heck of a sophisticated makeup look.
Ileana wore this look to the Mubarakan trailer launch last week, and her makeup was done by celebrity makeup artist Divya Chablani.
Maybelline New York Fashion Duo Brow Shaper (Rs 225)
1. Brows
If you’re going for a sleek and sophisticated makeup look, brows are clearly a must. Trace your brows and fill them in lightly with a brow crayon/pencil. Use the spooli/smudger end of a brush to comb your brows into shape and lighten the colour. If you have dark hair, opt for a brown.
MAC Eye Shadow Burgundy Times 9 (Rs 3,100)
2. Eyeshadow
Sweep a brown, burgundy shadow along your upper lash line with a blending, loosely packed brush. It should look like a wash of colour on your lids, starting from your lash line (where you apply liner) up. End before your crease.
Then, use a more tightly packed, smaller brush to apply the colour along your lower lash line, below your lashes for it to show. At the outer corner of your eyes, stretch it outwards in a cat shape and connect the colour back to your lids.
Lakmé Eyeconic Kajal Black (Rs 131)
3. Kohl
Apply some kajal in your upper waterline to tight line your eyes and make your lashes appear thicker.
Avon Super Shock Max Mascara (Rs 599)
4. Mascara
Finish off the look with mascara on your upper and lower lashes.
NYX Professional Makeup Liquid Suede Cream Lipstick – Cherry Skies (Rs 850)
5. Lips
Wear a velvet finish (not too matte, not too glossy) burgundy lip to complete the look.
