Beauty at work!

Besides, professional skills, one’s overall looks also account for surviving in today's ever-competitive and trend changing world. To emerge a winner in the race of survival, it is really important to present yourself as stylish, attractive and full of confidence. But, the lack of time and never-ending tasks, hardly leave us with any time for self-grooming – especially when you’re at work. To save your grace, Permanent Makeup Expert and Executive Director of ALPS Beauty Clinics, Ms. Gunjan Gaur, comes to rescue and tells what to do in order to maintain your beauty between duty.

Route to silkier skin:

Worried about uneven texture of your skin? Opt for applying a concealer to hide all the flaws of the skin or settle down with just applying a matching shade of foundation and complete the process by powdering the face well. Besides, a compact powder is also a great option to get smooth and shiny makeup in a go. For this, take the product on the puff and blend the product perfectly onto your face and neck to keep your face looking fresh all-day-long.

Cheeky Chic!

Using blushers not only compliments your smiling cheeks, but also endows your face with a chiseled look by correcting its shape. Opt for a suitable blusher for your skin-tone – pink, peach or brown. These can also be used as eye-shadows (in absence of one) to highlight your eyes in no time.

Kohl is a must:

True, that any makeup is incomplete without Kajal, as it makes them more intensified and bigger in just a spur of a moment – when applied. Often known as “loved by all” cosmetic product since years, kohl is most handy too, when it comes to adorn your eyes with a sultry avatar, at any point of time. One may experiment with various looks of their peepers by swapping the colors of their eye-pencils. These days eye-colors like; white, blue, brown are very famous amongst the young girls, as an alternate of black kohl.

Intensify your eyes:

Mascara is generally used to turn your eye lashes thick and long – but in turn helps us to achieve a more dramatic and deeper looking set of eyes. For better results, curl your lashes using an eye-lash curler before applying the mascara to infuse more intensity to the whole look. Using double coats/dollops of mascara open-up your peepers for an all-refreshed look in a jiffy.

Lips don’t lie:

An Indian beauty cannot be called as complete, in absence of a nice lip-shade on her pout. Hence, every woman is recommended for keeping her favorite shade of lip-color all the time with her. Nowadays, bright and neon lip-shades are very much in trend. You may try such bold tints and round upon the one which suits your skin-tone the best. Or, if you beg for boldness, go subtle with a nude shade or try-on a regular lip color with gloss to look elegant – but not blatantly bold.   For More Visit. www.alpsbeautyacademy.com

Say bye to Blackheads

You spend most of the time in college during the day; and therefore if you are not in habit of going for regular cleanups, skin-problems like, blackheads, whiteheads, become more prominent. Therefore, make sure to go for a thorough clean-up at a professional salon before entering your college premises.

Some of us who do – apply it either in very small amount or too often in a day. This makes our skin more prone to tan and other skin-woes. So, girls, it’s high time you buy a bottle of sun-guard for yourself as prevention is better than cure! Similarly, for hair remember to use a heat-protecting spray. It forms a protective barrier over the cuticle on the hair strand, preventing damage due to heat and enabling your hair to keep-up its smoothness and shine.

Let your body do the talking!

Taking proper care of your hands and feet is also important, as they are the ones who are subjected to all humidity, grime and dirt all the while you roam around in college. Therefore, indulging in regular manicure and pedicure session at an expert and professional salon is highly recommended. Also, don’t forget to adorn your hands and feet with bright colored nail-paints to compliment your outfits. You may go for Soak-off nail paints, that are super-in these and last up to 20 days.

Unwanted hair! A big no-no

Waxing is the cheapest way to remove all you unwanted hair and you shouldn’t even think twice before going for it. Imagine you go on wearing all your high-end clothing with non-waxed hands! A big no-no isn’t it? Therefore, proper sessions of waxing at an expert salon are recommended to save yourself from the `hair-shame`. You can also go for `Permanent Hair Removal`, a huge rage nowadays amongst the youth to get rid of unwanted hair.
