While we’re on the topic of Iftar parties, if you are looking for makeup ideas, we have the best ones reserved for you. So, this Eid, put up your best clothes and best smile and celebrate the blessed month and day with our Eid and Iftar party makeup ideas. For makeup for Eid, we have compiled two looks – one is simple and the other is glam but both are guaranteed to make you look and feel gorgeous. So, take notes as we take you through these elaborated Eid makeup tutorials.
1. Makeup for Eid: Simple Look
If you are somebody who prefers subtle makeup, this simple Eid makeup look is perfect for you –
• Eye Makeup – Create a nude eyeshadow look using Maybelline’s The Nudes Eyeshadow Palette.
Step 1: Start by applying a warm brown shade in your crease – use a small fluffy brush and move your brush in a windshield wiper motion from the outer corner of your eye to the inner corner. Add more eyeshadow if you want to increase the intensity of the colour.
Step 2: Use a light cream or brown shimmery eyeshadow from the same eyeshadow palette and using your fingers, dab the colour all over your eyelid. If you want to add more definition to the look, darken your lash line and the outer 1/3rd of your eyelid using a dark brown eyeshadow.
Step 3: Eid eye makeup is incomplete without kajal, so use the Maybelline Colossal Kajal to outline your eyes in a thin and precise line. Finish your eye makeup look with your favourite mascara to give your lashes some volume and length.
• Face Makeup – For a simple Eid makeup look, keep your base lightweight and low to medium coverage.
Step 1: Add a light layer of the Maybelline Fit Me Tube Foundation to add a natural looking matte finish to your skin. Use the Maybelline Foundation Finder tool if you are unsure about your exact foundation shade match.
Step 2: The key to creating a natural-looking makeup look is to add concealer only to hide imperfections, and avoid using a full coverage brightening concealer to illuminate the high points of your face. The Fit Me Concealer is perfect for covering your under eyes, blemishes, and scars with natural coverage for men and women.
Step 3: To keep your base makeup looking natural and fresh, set only those parts of your face that tend to get oily. Use a lightweight powder on a large fluffy brush and lightly dust it only under your eyes and on your T-zone. Skip the contour and instead use a warm peach blush like the Fit Me Mono Blush in the shade Nude Peach to enhance your skin tone and add a pop of colour to your cheeks. Step 4: Finish your face makeup look by using a liquid highlighter to add a natural glow-from-within look to your complexion.
Pro tip: For Eid makeup for men, you can simply dab some concealer to cover your dark circles and hyperpigmentation.
• Lip Makeup – Make your lips the focus of your Eid makeup look by applying a creamy lipstick that is not only intensely pigmented but also feels buttery soft on your lips.
Step 1: Choose the Maybelline Color Sensational Creamy Matte Lipstick for adding a vibrant and crisp colour to your lips.
Step 2: Start by applying at the centre of your upper lip and then swipe the applicator across the lips and it’s done.
Now that you know how to do this simple makeup for Eid, let’s move to the glam Eid makeup tutorial part.
2. Makeup for Eid: Glam Look
Add drama to your eyes and create a bold red lip with this glamorous makeup look that is sure to turn heads wherever you go
• Eye Makeup – If you want a glam makeup for Eid, go for a smokey eye.
Step 1: Apply the light brown eyeshadow from the Maybelline 24K Nudes Eyeshadow palette and run it along your crease to add a transition shade. Use your finger to press in the champagne gold eyeshadow to your eyelid – go all out here and add a lot of glitter to your eye makeup.
Step 2: Using a flat angled brush, smudge the black eyeshadow across your upper lash line and create a soft, smokey look. Use the same black eyeshadow to the outer corner of your eyes to add more drama to your look.
Step 3: Add a generous amount of the Colossal Super Black Kajal to create a bold black waterline and soften the line using some of the leftover black eyeshadow on the angled brush.
Step 4: Get thick, long, and lifted eyelashes using the Maybelline Lash Lift Mascara and tie your eye makeup look together by getting some #BrowsOnFleek with a precise eyebrow pencil.
• Face Makeup – Since the main focus of this look is your eyes and lips, avoid adding too much colour to your face makeup.
Step 1: Use a full coverage foundation to create a flawless airbrushed base and use the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer to conceal your dark circles and brighten the under-eye area.
Step 2: Use a cream contour to chisel out your cheekbones and jawline and add more definition to your face. Set your makeup in place using a loose powder for a seamless base and blend a warm blush to elongate your face shape.
Step 3: Blush plays a huge role in changing how your face looks, so you need to understand How To Apply Blush For Your Face Shape to best flatter your features.
Step 4: Illuminate the high points of your face like the top of your cheekbones, the bridge of your nose, and the side of your temples using a powder highlighter. You can also use the highlighter to the inner corner of your eyes and under the arch of your eyebrows to brighten up the eye area.
• Lip Makeup – A full glam makeup for Eid is incomplete without bold red lips.
Step 1: When going for a bold lip colour, remember to always line your lips using a lip liner to make sure your colour does not bleed out of your lip line and the colour stays crisp all day long.
Step 2: Use a classic bold red lipstick to complete this glamorous Eid makeup look.
You can choose other lipstick shades of your choice and see if it goes with your glam look. Do you know that you can try various lip shades without actually applying them on your lips? Use the Maybelline Virtual Try-On tool and experiment with the different colours in real time before making your pick.
No matter which makeup for Eid you try, remember to use a face primer and a setting spray before and after doing your makeup to keep your makeup looking fresh all through the night!
