How to Glow Using Perfectly Peachy Makeup

Madhuri Dixit-Nene has the most captivating smile in the entire industry. So it's not surprising to want to copy Mads' fresh peachy look.


Here are a few amazing colours that are universally flattering, that will also allow you to recreate Madhuri's makeup.



On the eyes:


1. MAC's Goldbit e/s is absolutely perfect, but it has been discontinued, so a colour close to this would be MAC's Naked Lunch. Sweep this colour over the entire lid.

2. Line the upper lashes with a dark brown pencil, such as MAC's eye pencil in Coffee. Smudge more liner on the lower lash line using a cutip.



3. Finish off with 2 coats of mascara after curling eyelashes. (Tip: Once again, the best eyelash curler on the market has to be by Shiseido).



On the face:

1. Even out your skin by using a primer for the face so that your makeup will have a smoother finish. A primer with flawless results is Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer, or Make Up For Ever's HD Microperfecting Primer (both are available at Sephora).


2. Use a lightweight foundation as close to your skin colour as possible.


3. Place MAC's Mineralize Blush in Dainty on the apples of the cheeks in small circular motions using MAC's #116 Blush Brush.


(Mineralize Blush Tip: With mineralize blushes, the more you "buff" them onto your cheeks with a blush brush, the more vivid the colour appears!)



On the Lips:


1. Apply MAC's Velvet Teddy lipstick all over the lip.


2. Apply MAC's Dazzleglass Lip gloss in Bare Necessity (Note: this colour was a limited edition, but has just come back permanently this week!)
