Get Valentine's Day Ready: Khushi Kapoor's Makeup Tips To Match The Red Outfit

Label it fun, intentional, or mandatory, wearing red on Valentine's Day somehow feels right, right? This fiery, passion-infused hue when flaunted as an ensemble attracts attention but can appear dramatic (not in a pleasant way) if complemented with dramatic makeup. A balance is what you require to ensure the vibrant colour outfit is elevated with subtle yet striking makeup. Gen Z diva Khushi Kapoor has certainly mastered the art of complementing the red outfits with perfect makeup looks (check her Insta for validation)! And we have decoded them already!

Here are Khushi's simple-to-follow makeup steps that will ensure your red outfit and makeup match well on V-Day!

Start With A Clear Base

Khushi insists on starting with a flawless base before experimenting with colors. Skin that is vibrant and fresh without overwhelming the ensemble is essential for a red ensemble. To start, use a moisturizing primer to make the canvas smooth. Choose a lightweight foundation to get the dewy finish.

For a flawless complexion, remember to use concealer around the nose and beneath the eyes. Finally, lightly coat the skin with translucent powder to hold things in place without having it appear cakey.

Keep The Eyes Neutral

Ms Kapoor is a firm believer in keeping the eyes delicate and sophisticated while letting the red ensemble steal the show. Use only warm, neutral eyeshadows, such as beiges, gentle browns, and a touch of peach. A golden glitter on the lids creates a romantic glow, while a satin brown in the creases offers subtle depth.

The Archies movie star frequently uses a thin, smooth stroke of brown or black eyeliner around the lash line for definition. For a more polished yet natural look, avoid thick wings and concentrate on a subtle flick. Without taking center stage, a couple of coats of thickening mascara complete off those fluttery lashes.

Blush To Get Natural Flush

Since your attire is fiery your blush should provide the perfect amount of warmth. When you want to give your cheeks a natural flush, Khushi suggests applying a gentle, peachy-pink or coral blush. To avoid clashing with your attire, steer clear of hues that are too rosy or deep red.

The secret is to accentuate your inherent radiance without overpowering the strikingness of your clothing. For the lifted, young look, dab blush to the cheeks and blend it higher toward your temples.

Highlight And Contour

Khushi places a strong emphasis on delicate contouring and highlighting to maintain the style's modernity. A warm-toned bronzer can be used to gently shape your forehead, jawline, and cheekbones. Avoid going overboard; harsh words are not appropriate at this time.

Use a pink or golden-toned highlighter to draw attention to the prominent areas of your face, such as your nose, cheekbones, and the cupid's bow. You'll get that glowing effect from within that goes well with a red outfit!

Bold Or Neutral Lips, You Pick

If you are aiming for a dramatic, monochromatic look, pick a red lipstick that goes well with your outfit's undertone. Choose a red lipstick with a warm tone if the red dress has warm tones like orange tones. Use a blue-based red lipstick for much cooler reds with blue undertones. For a more elegant appearance, Khushi recommends matte finishes; for a more relaxed atmosphere, she suggests satin finishes.

You should wear a nude lip if you want your clothing to speak for you. Peachy or pink lipsticks with a neutral tint go well with red ensembles, according to Khushi. Apply a little gloss for a flirtatious, clean look that exudes Valentine's Day style.

Little Details Matter

Khushi understands that the small elements complete the ensemble. Maintain a defined and well-groomed brow by filling in sparse areas with brow powder or a pencil, adhering to your natural form.

The 'Nadaaniyan' movie star advises highlighting your eyes subtly in the inner corners for an added punch. To ensure your makeup remains perfect during all the Valentine's Day celebrations, finish with a setting spray.
