Looking for hot party tips? Here we go....

• Always use warmer / deeper colors for the evenings.
• If you have a round face, use a little blusher on the high part of the cheek, close to the nose, and blend it lightly across the rounded cheeks
• If you have a slender face, you need to create an illusion of width. Dab your blusher on the outer curves of the cheek, away from the nose. Blend well, outwards, towards the temples.
• Got a square face? Focus on softenin the angles of the jaw line by a hint of shadowing. Pat on blusher, and blend it well across the square jaw line. Rouge, softly blended, under the jaw line reduces the square effect.
• Your jaw line can look more clear-cut with this trick for the gala evening.
• Accentuate cheek bones for evening makeup. Use a liquid foundation, a shade lighter than usual. Apply it in little dabs on the top of the cheek bones and on to the corners of the nose. Blend well.
• Focus extra attention on eyes and mouth. Outline your face very lightly with blusher, blending it well with feathery strokes.

• Powder blushers will add color without shine. If you have oily skin, you should avoid using cream blushers.
• If your face looks oily halfway through the day, try this trick: Take a blusher brush, rinse it with cool water and allow to dry. Sprinkle some baby powder into the open bristles and dust this powder over your face before applying your foundation.
• If your complexion is too sallow or dull ,don`t let a very pink foundation tempt you.
• You should also avoid a clear beige foundations.
• Remember yellow or green colors in make will make your skin look more dull, so avoid these shades completely.
• In stead pick warm shades. Choose a warm beige foundation and clear blue / magenta / bronze eye shadow.
• Lipsticks in burnt orange, rust, copper or red tones are best suited for Indian skins.
• Pale complexion? Avoid using a pink foundation. Choose a clear natural foundation for a natural look. Avoid very dark eye shadows / lipsticks. They will make you look tired!
• Go for dull rust or brown eyeshades.
• Use a soft blusher on cheeks, chin and forehead.
• Never try to match the eye shadow color to your eye color and lip color to nail color. The results can be disastrous!
• Make your false eyelashes look natural by brushing both the false and real lashes with a little mascara after putting them on.
• To achieve a subtle look, avoid a thick, defined eye liner.
• In stead, draw a thin line at the roots of the eyelashes with a soft dark brown eye shadow or use an eye pencil.
• This gives a wonderful smudged look.
• In winter months, pearl-gray, shell, ivory and beige eye shadows can be easily carried off.
• Highlighters are a no-no during the daytime.
• Are your lips are too thin and straight? Try applying your lipstick slightly above the line of the upper lip and slightly below the line of the lower lip.
• Use a lip pencil to define the lines first before you fill in with lipstick.
• You can make your lips look fuller: use a dark / rich shade of lipstick in the center ( deep plum, red, magenta) and a lighter shade in the corners ( peach, mauve, burnt orange). Make sure you blend them well.
