Festive Glow: Make-up That Lasts From Puja to Party
Long days, warm rooms and a lot of photos: how to make your make-up go the distance.
By Leah Okafor
Festive days are long. Make-up that looks fresh in the morning has to survive heat, lamps, food and hugs.
Prep matters more than product. A light moisturiser, given five minutes to sink in, helps everything on top stay put.
Your touch-up kit
Choose cream textures for cheeks and eyelids and set only the centre of the face with powder. Skin should still look like skin.
“Glow is not shine. Keep the light on the high points and the rest calm.”
Carry three things: blotting papers, your lip colour and a cotton bud for quick fixes.
At the end of the night, take it all off with a balm cleanser before bed.
