Sunkissed hues
Wearable make-up with a touch of glam is what all of us need every now and then! And that's when sunset eyes come into the picture.
It was last year, when beauty enthusiasts from across the globe started to talk about sporting sunset eyes. And now, it's fair to say that the trend is catching up. To cut the long story short, sunset eyes are basically reminiscent of the early '80s and '90s make-up. For refence, take the instance of fresh-on-the-scene Madonna in 1983 and the colour-clashing street art of Jean-Michel Basquiat.
This time around, instead of layering up with three to four shades of contrasting eyeshadow hues, the trick is to pair a shade or two of sunset hues on the lower lids and crease. This eye-do when paired with a tomato red pout makes for a brilliant look! For a pro tip on how to go about the look, gradients of apricot and bronze can be used on your eyelids and cheeks. This helps to create a washed-out sunset effect, which is very gorgeous to say the least. Finish off by swiping a non-sticky gloss of the same colour. And voila. you're shining, girl!
Things you'll need: A great gel liner, rusty reds and oodles of confidence to carry off this 'rave look' with absolute panache.
