By Mahrukh Manan Makeup Artist Mahrukh Manan shares her favourite makeup buys!

Huda Beauty #FauxFilter Foundation

This is the best full coverage foundation’s I’ve come across. Only one pump is good for the whole face and blends in so well that it looks like skin even though its such a thick formula. Best part of the foundations full coverage, there’s no need of concealing dark spots or under-eye area!

For day time use, i always mix it with my moisturizer and it gives such a sheer-out look!

Ruby Woo Mac Lipstick

february 18, 2018 | 64

This is a cool red colour with a matte finish. There is nothing like this, it brightens up the entire face and its formula is velvety and not at all sticky!

People will dry lips may have to moisturize before applying for perfect application. Ruby Woo is a savior when you’re not in the mood to do any makeup! Just apply it, and you’ll be good to go!

Nars Orgasm Blush I’ve had this in my makeup collection since it was launched and I’ve never been satisfied with any other blush since then!

The peachy, subtly shimmery blush compliments my whole makeup look!

I believe, this particular shade of blush looks the best on our asian skin tones.

MAC Fix+ Setting Spray

Gives Great volume, Love the brush! So Easy to reapply and build even throughout the day! The best part, it’s the most reasonable mascara I come across!

This spray is perfect for adding a dewy finish to your skin, and setting your makeup if you’re going out for long! This spray is also great to use as a medium to mix your pigments or applying glitters on your eyelids.

Simply spray it on your brush, pick up the product and apply on the lids.

It smells great and freshens up your whole look!

Essence I love extreme mascara

Tattoo Liner by Kat Von D. All time favourite liner with a Fabulously pointed tip, a very intense colour & it’s waterproof!

Clinique Take The Day Off Makeup Remover

Luscious Face Contour Kit

Whether you’re a beginner or a pro, this Contour Kit is a must have! It contains 4 blendable powder shades for Contour and highlight. All you need to enhance your features

february 18, 2018 | 65

If you want your makeup to look flawless, taking care of your skin and taking off your makeup is very important! This makeup remover quickly takes off makeup without harming your skin in just one swipe! It doesn’t sting if it goes inside your eyes and surely doesn’t break eyelashes while removing the mascara!
