Feeling a little over-the-top or should we say exotic, well we can’t blame you girl, it’s the aftermaths of spring summer fashion! The fashion weeks have spoken it all. From exotic colours to chic trends, purples to mauves, reds to pinks, neon to beige and whites too, exotica in the riot of colours running amok seems to be ruling 2015.

But First- Is Exotic Makeup For You?

Most women and PYTs would want to know if Exotic Make Up would suit them or not? And the answer is YES, it is for everyone who wants to experiment a little and have fun dolling up their eyes too.

What Forms The Look?

• Textures
• Patterns
• Colours et al

The aforementioned three are catalysts that bring about the right exotic makeup look for the eyes. A look that surely turns heads towards you and even when in a crowd, makes you stand apart from the rest, accentuating your facial features to its best.

Summers would be the right time to get a little more exotic than other months. While you wear your sheer skirts, flannel shirts, boob tubes and flair skirts, it would be your facial features that would bring about the ‘oomph factor’!

Tips On Exotic Makeup:

• Pay good attention to TEXTURE; a very important aspect when dolling the eyes with an exotic touch.
• For exotic makeup, play along with bright shades that stand out
• Patterns such as animal prints, graphic dots, waves, mini-crystals, dramatic circles or other prints and patterns can be played with
• False eyelashes aren’t mandatory to use, but if you do, you will end up with a sexier and a very dramatic look.
• The lower lash line is where you can create magic, with subtle touches to the upper lid
• Wear them for Friday dressing at work, at office parties or even at nightclubs too, the world is your oyster when experimenting with exotic makeup!

Simple Yet Exotic Makeup:

What you need for the look would be;

• A reputed Blusher,
• A reputed Eye Shadow,
• A reputed Eyebrow Color,
• A reputed Eyeliner,
• A reputed Face powder,
• A reputed Foundation,
• A reputed Lip brush,
• A reputed Lip liner,
• A reputed Bright and Bold Lipstick,
• A reputed Mascara, along with
• A reputed Moisturizer.

Steps:

1. Wash your face and pat dry
2. Apply moisturizer on your face, neck and the forehead
3. With the help of a brush, apply foundation evenly across the facial structure for an even look and a smooth touch
4. Use a translucent powder to bring on the flawless look and to tone down the shine and shimmer effect
5. A reputed blusher in pink would bring a glow to the face and makes the features lively
6. For the eyebrows, use a metallic eyeshadow
7. Follow this up with a stroke of eyeliner, winged if possible
8. Doll up the lashes with two strokes of mascara

Eyeshadow:

The colours for the lids should be in sync with what you would be wearing- unless of course it is a theme party, and you really wouldn’t mind being a rainbow!

1. The first shade should be the lightest metallic shade to cover the entire eyelid in one stroke
2. Now apply two strokes of intense kohl or eyeliner on the upper eyelid, curve it in an angle at the end
3. The second shade to use on the eyelids should be a darker tone of another colour; apply it to make a frame on the lid, and it can be a little messy, which is okay!
4. Around the darkest shade, use another shade (medium) in metallic tones to cover the rest of the eyelid.
5. Do not cross the eyebrows
6. Gently use an eyeliner or mascara (brown, caramel, beige or black) to accentuate the lashes.
7. Finally, clean up with the help of a Q-Tip the remnants

You now are ready with the exotic eye makeup look!
