Hence it is important to care for our skin and hair with basic skills in application of make up. Choosing the right tone of make up is very important. Make up especially must suit Indian skin tones as many times the models appear with international concept where the skin type and tone is completely different to Asian skin.

Lipsticks are about subtle styles and flamboyance. The glamour of lipstick can be cultivated by choosing the right color. Going as per the skin tone and the shape of the lips, lip brushes are the best way to give a shape with a neat outline. Celebrities too change their looks emphasizing the shape of their lips, arch of the eyebrows and using different eye make up.

Mineral make up is the best choice and it also moisturizes the skin. Foundation is the best way to hide dark circles. Donning a base moisturizer is imperative before applying any kind of make up. Skin that is dark has a tone of its own. There are no restrictions about color here but coordination will be necessary.

Grooming is the routine concept before enhancing looks through make up. Bleach is a way to lighten facial hair and harsh chemicals must be avoided. Exfoliating is important to remove dead skin and also restore the glow. Scrubs are also found in reputed brands with peach, avocado, wheat germ or apricot extracts. They are gentle on the skin and also refreshing.
