What is your makeup routine?
I get very lazy when it comes to my own face, but when
I do get into it, its usually concealer, powder. kajal, lip
and cheek tint with lots of mascara.
What are some essential makeup products that you
recommend for daytime makeup?
Sunscreen, sunscreen and sunscreen - I cannot insist
enough. Also, I am a big fan of bronzers and cheek
tints.
Some mistakes you think people make when
applying daytime makeup?
Makeup is personal, so I believe there is no wrong way
of doing makeup. However, makeup can be harsh or
inappropriate at times when it is not needed during
the day. Strong lines, extra shimmer, and keeping eyes
and lips bold simultaneously, such small things are day
time faux pas. Makeup is supposed to make you look
.better and confident – not weigh you down
Is having SPF in makeup products essential or
should one stick to their ordinary SPF face cream?
SPF in makeup can protect you from the sun, but not
as effectively as a sunscreen that is exclusively designed
for this purpose.
How to keep makeup intact during the day when
outdoor and indoor as well.
Apply mattifying primer over clean skin and a light
coverage foundation that is mattifying too. Set with
finely crushed setting powder and use matte fixing spray
to finish. If your skin is naturally too oily, particularly
in summer, avoid using moisturizer before makeup.

Most of the BB, CC and DD creams have SPF as well, but they do not
replace a good sunscreen.
