For beginners, it might take a while to get there but practice makes perfect. Now is the time to work your way to perfecting your Glamour Raya look.
Glitter Eyeliner and fake eyelashes
With a touch of glitter eyeliner, your make up can go from a scale of 1 to 5 just like that. All you have to do is use the same technique of applying regular eyeliner, but glitter eyeliner make your eyes pop a bit more. It stays on pretty long and does not smudge either. If you are attending a house gathering, opt for glitter eyeliner instead of your usual pencil or liquid eyeliner.
For those who are not blessed with thick and full lashes or prefer to add some drama to the eyes, you’ve got fake eyelashes to the rescue. Falsies help to enhance your own natural lashes and add an extra edge.
Smoky eyes with nude lips
Smoky eyes can look mysterious and dramatic. Blending your eye shadow thoroughly and make sure that you apply eye shadow primer beforehand. This is to avoid smudges and ensure that your eye shadow stays on for a long time.
Nude lips are the safest but in-trend choice. Pair nude lips with gloss for a nice shimmer glossy lips suitable for Raya. Last but not least, keep blush and highlighter minimal.
Bright eye shadow colors
While earthy and warm colours are the go-to choice, bold and bright colours can also make a strong impact. This Raya, don’t shy away from bright eye shadow hues like purple and green to match your outfits. Team your bold eye shadow with winged eyeliner and braided or bunned hair to complete your look.
Rose Gold Makeup
Saving the best for the last, this year’s Raya makeup look would be incomplete without something in rose gold. Perfect for day and night, rose gold eye shadow or glitter eyeliner go with coral lipstick fantastically. Plus, it suits just about any skin tone and any traditional outfit, no matter if is kebaya, kebarung, or baju kurung. For lipstick, aside from the aforementioned coral, any lip cream with an orange undertone works too.
