Eye makeup trends to experiment with this monsoon
What's the story
During the monsoon, when the air is humid, it can be challenging to maintain a flawless appearance.
However, various strategies can enable you to face weather conditions with confidence and style.
Aashka Goradia Goble, co-founder, RENÉE Cosmetics helps us with some tips to master eye makeup trends during the season. The key, however, is to adopt a monsoon-appropriate hygiene regimen.
Trend 1
Emphasize the eye
Monsoon is a season where people generally prefer minimal makeup. Goradia Goble suggests giving a minimalistic twist this monsoon by just emphasizing the eyes.
"During the monsoon season, it's a good idea to highlight your eyes while keeping the rest of your makeup minimal," she says.
The idea is to bring focus to the eyes while giving you an impression of whole makeup.
Trend 2
Waterproof wonders
Waterproof and smudge-proof cosmetics take center stage during monsoon season as it helps to withstand the rain and humidity while giving you a perfect look.
"Opt for vibrant, waterproof and smudge-proof eye makeup products like eyeliners and mascaras and define your eyes," the expert says.
"Curl your lashes and apply waterproof mascara to get a wide-eyed effect," she adds.
Trend 3
Make use of vibrant colors
Leave the muted neutrals behind and adopt a flurry of hues that capture the spirit of the season. Play around with striking color combinations.
"Embrace the beauty of the season with eyeliners in electric blues, tropical greens, and other bold hues. Get creative with playful graphic eyeliner designs that add an artistic edge to your monsoon look," says Goradia Goble.
Trend 4
Metallic shine
If you are not into vibrant colors, then you can also try out metallic shades on your eyes.
Goradia Goble recommends adding a touch of metallic eyeshadow to your eyelids. These shades infuse a sparkle and shimmer, lending your face an illuminated aura.
According to her, it gives one a "luminous look that stands out even in gloomy weather."
Trend 5
Define eyebrows
Instead of highly filled-in brows, choose a more natural look that emphasizes the distinctive shape and texture of your brows.
Groom your eyebrows for a natural yet defined appearance that complements your eye makeup without overpowering it, suggests the RENÉE Cosmetics co-founder.
The secret is to keep the naturalness and smoothness of your brows while grooming and defining them.
