- Add colour to your cheeks

Wear sunscreen!
Okay, regardless of the occasion, this is what you should already be doing. Haldi rituals are often held outside, where you are exposed to sunshine for an extended period of time, which can harm your skin beyond repair. Apply a generous amount of sunscreen to the uncovered parts of your body to protect your face.
Conceal your spots using a concealer
Avoid using mascara for this ceremony; after all, you don’t want a heavy makeup look. On the other hand, Concealer comes in handy for concealing all of the dark lines and spots on the skin. Apply that to your trouble area, and you’ll look flawless.
Neutral coloured eyeshadow
If you’re too impatient for a full-fledged wing eyeliner, get your hands on a cream-based eyeshadow stick in every medium hue. Colours such as gold, rose gold, and champagne look new and photograph well! Still, don’t go overboard. You might also use the same colour on your eyelids as you do on your lips and cheeks.
Highlight for natural glow
This is a move that no girl can skip, and you get all the Shimmer! Please do not use powdered highlighter; instead, use a strobing cream or cream-based highlighter and apply it to the high points of your face, blending it in to look subtle, flawless, and shiny!
Nude Lipstick
Since most haldi ceremonies occur during the day, avoid wearing dark lipstick shades that could be too bright for a daytime function. Choose a pretty nude shade that complements your undertones, and if you’re unsure, consult your makeup artist! We choose matte nude lipstick and remember to use a lip balm before applying the lipstick.
Makeup Setting Spray
Finally, spray a little beauty fixer on your face to fix some remaining makeup, and you’re ready to rock the whole look. You won’t have to think about your mascara disappearing or getting on the hands of those who add your haldi.
