Armani, Silk Luminous Foundation

A royal-favourite, literally because Meghan Markle herself seems to be an ardent fan of this foundation in particular. The silk luminous foundation, remaining very much true to its name has a silky and lightweight texture. It melts into your skin upon application, all thanks to its oil-free formula. With minimalistic and dewy makeup in the limelight all through last year, a foundation with buildable coverage is just what your skin needs. You don’t need to worry a tad bit about your skin feeling dry since this one comes infused with glycerin to keep it hydrated

Charlotte Tilbury, Luxury Palette

Bringing the best of the red carpet to you, Charlotte Tilbury’s luxury palette is nothing but opulence in the form of an eyeshadow quad. It’s a versatile palette with matte, metallic and shimmery shades, perfect for party season. This tiny gem has shades that can be taken from day to night. Eye-glowing pigments that glide on and coat your eyes with a gleam like never before. An ideal combination of matte shades and glitters, each and every hue is universally flattering so your eyes are definitely going to be the centre of attention.

Hourglass, Ambient Lighting Blush

With one of the most coveted formulas to have ever existed, the ambient lighting blush uses photoambient technology unlike your usual blushes to ensure dimension upon application. The hues are extremely soft-focused and multi-dimensional and deliver the most radiant flush on your cheeks. What we love about this blush is how it’s made by hand instead of a machine, yep it really is! All thanks to this, no two ambient blushes look alike. So, if you’re looking for a glowing flush of colour on the cheek, this should be in your cart right away.
