But first, skincare. They add, “Uorfi takes good care of her skin. When you look at her, you know that the glow comes from within and under the make-up.” This is evident; no one mistook the glow for highlighter.

Prep your skin so that your make-up sits well and moves with your face. Here’s a simple routine to start with.
>> Cleanser: Use a gentle cleanser twice a day to clean your pores.
>> Toner: This will help restore your pH balance and opens up your pores to better absorb the serum and moisturiser.
>> Moisturiser: Try a gel-based moisturiser instead of a cream or oil-based one for better absorption during humid weather conditions.
>> Eye cream: It helps you to hydrate the eyes and make sure you look fresh and awake.
>> Sunscreen: Pick a sunscreen that protects you from UVA and UVB rays. And don’t forget to apply it on your neck, hands, feet and other areas exposed to the sun.
>> Lip balm: Complete your routine with plump moisturised lips.

All day, every day

Go light on coverage, opt for pinks and oranges and don’t forget to carry blotting paper to dab — not wipe — the sweat off.
Step 1: Skip the heavy foundation and opt for only concealer. Go over pigmented areas for a little coverage.
Step 2: Use your compact powder to matte-fy your face. It will also give you a less 
coverage, reducing the need for foundation.
Step 3: Instead of powder blush for your cheeks, use cream blush to ensure your make-up doesn’t cake and crack. This will give you an added dewy glow. It’s more long-lasting than powder blush.
Step 4: Use the same cream blush for your eyelids and lips for a cohesive pop of colour. Pink and orange tints go well with Indian skin tones. Add a quick touch of waterproof mascara, and finish with lip gloss.

Night glam

Enhance your monochromatic day look for a night out. A few additions to  it will get you ready, without going too make-up heavy and  retaining the freshness of day look.
Face: For coverage, you can use a tinted moisturiser or 
BB cream and still skip the foundation.
Eyes: Stick to the cream blush for your cheeks, but go for a slightly more dramatic look for your eyes. Black eyeshadow tends to get too heavy for a face on a humid evening. Instead, try brown cream eyeshadow and brown liner for a smokey eye. Don’t miss your mascara and false eyelashes. Add 
shimmer to your eyes for a dash of oomph. 
Lips: Instead of dark and bold, go for bright and bold. Try dark browns or magenta if you want to stay away from a red lip. You can experiment with orange shades as well.
