1. The classic ethereal glow: For a timeless and elegant look, focus on creating a luminous and glowing base. Start with a hydrating primer and a luminous foundation to achieve a radiant complexion. Use a subtle highlighter on the highest points of your face – cheekbones, brow bone and the bridge of the nose. Pair it with a soft, neutral eyeshadow in beige or champagne shades and finish with a nude or soft pink lipstick. This look is perfect for daytime puja ceremonies and pairs beautifully with traditional sarees or anarkalis. (Image Source: Canva)
2. Golden Goddess: Channel the rich colours of Ganesh Chaturthi with a gold-hued makeup look. Start with a matte primer to create a flawless base, followed by a shimmery gold eyeshadow applied on the lids. Use a darker shade, such as bronze or copper, to add depth to the outer corners of your eyes. Winged eyeliner and voluminous lashes will enhance the drama, while a coral or red lip colour will tie the whole look together. This look works well for evening events and adds a royal touch to your festive outfit. (Image Source: Canva)
3. Bold Berry-Hued Elegance: If you’re looking to make a statement, go for a bold berry-hued makeup look. Use a deep berry-hued eyeshadow on your lids, blending it outwards for a soft smoky effect. Pair it with a deep berry-hued lipstick or gloss to create a harmonious look. Keep the rest of your makeup minimal, with just a hint of blush and a light dusting of highlighter, to allow your eyes and lips to take centre stage. This look complements both contemporary and traditional outfits, making it versatile for various Ganesh Chaturthi events. (Image Source: Canva)
4. Sunset Eyes: Inspired by the warm tones of a sunset, this look incorporates shades of orange, pink, and gold. Start with an orange eyeshadow in the crease, blending it with a pink shade on the lids and a touch of gold in the inner corners for added sparkle. A soft cat-eye effect and fluttery lashes will complete the eye look. Keep the lips in a nude or soft peach shade for balance. This vibrant and fun look is perfect for younger attendees who want to experiment with color without losing the festive spirit. (Image source: Pinterest/ outfit girls)
5. Minimalist Monochrome: For those who prefer a more subtle style, a monochromatic makeup look in peach or pink hues offers a fresh and modern take on festive beauty. Use a single shade for the eyes, cheeks, and lips to create a cohesive look. A peach blush can double as eyeshadow, while a matching lip tint completes the look. This minimalist style is ideal for daytime celebrations and can be easily achieved with a few key products. (Image source: Canva)
6. Traditional Kajal and Kohl: Embrace tradition with a classic kajal and kohl look. Define your eyes with a thick line of kajal along the waterline and smudge it lightly for a sultry smoky effect. Add a hint of shimmer on the lids and finish with a volumizing mascara. Pair it with a bold red or a deep maroon lipstick for a quintessentially Indian look. This look is perfect for a more traditional celebration and goes perfectly with ethnic outfits like lehengas and saris. (Image source: Pinterest/ 𝓇𝒶𝓉𝓊𝓁)
7. The Floral Festive Look: Take inspiration from the floral decorations of Ganesh Chaturthi by incorporating soft pastel colours into your makeup. Choose eyeshadows in lavender, mint green or pink shades and pair them with a light, bright lipstick. Add small floral accessories in your hair or as temporary art on your face for a fun and fresh touch. This look is perfect for outdoor celebrations and daytime events. (Image source: Canva)
