Today, I am excited to unveil my take on the Viral Latte Makeup look, specially curated for Indian brown skin. As always, I’ve focused on using predominantly drugstore products, making this captivating look easily accessible for all of you. Embracing the warm and inviting hues of a latte, this makeup style promises to enhance your natural beauty and leave you feeling absolutely stunning. So, get ready to indulge in a mesmerizing transformation as I guide you through each step of achieving this fabulous Latte Makeup look.
Let’s dive right in and create magic together!
Step 1: Prepping Your Skin with Heimish Bulgarian Rose Satin Cream
To start, I have used the luxurious Heimish Bulgarian Rose Satin Cream before creating the perfect makeup canvas. This cream not only hydrates my skin but also infuses it with the mesmerizing fragrance of Bulgarian roses, leaving me feeling refreshed and pampered.
Notably, this cream goes beyond ordinary hydration. It contains Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA), which provide a brightening effect as AHA gently exfoliates the skin.
And here’s a bonus – the AHA also helps your makeup last longer!
By removing dead skin cells and promoting cell turnover, the cream makes sure your makeup sticks around for a flawless and long-lasting finish.
Step 2: Preparing the Canvas with Body Shop Matte Primer
After treating your skin with the luxurious Heimish Bulgarian Rose Satin Cream, it’s time to take my makeup game to the next level with the Body Shop Matte it Primer.
This is one of oldest magical primer in my vanity as it is specifically designed to mattify the skin, perfect for those with oily or acne-prone skin types. Body Shop Matte it Primer effectively regulates excess sebum production, minimizing unwanted shine and creating a beautiful matte finish that lasts throughout the day.
Step 3: Pastel Eyeshadow with Ingrid
For the eye base, I always use my reliable partner Ingrid All Mineral Silk & Lift. It not only prevents creasing and fading but also evens out the lid’s tone.
This is especially advantageous for those with deeper skin tones, as it helps to create a smooth and uniform canvas for the eyeshadow colors to truly shine.
Step 4: Bodyshop Tea tree concealer
For concealer, I have used The Body Shop Tea Tree Concealer in shade 02. It is a thick concealer with Tea Tree in it, so it doesn’t irritate the acne and covers the acne marks very well.
Step 5: Patting and Applying Compact for a Long-Lasting Primer
After following the previous steps, it’s time to enhance the longevity of your makeup. I have patted down the products on my skin by applying compact powder strategically.
Step 6 : Ingrid Smart Eyes – Smokey eyeshadow palette
Doing the latte eyes is of supreme importance in this Viral Latte Makeup look. I’m using the light brown shade number 02 on the lid as a base for the viral latte look and blending it thoroughly. Then I added the medium brown shade number 03 from the palette to the crease to deepen it up and create the halo effect. Again, I paid close attention to blending it seamlessly.
In the end, I used the dark brown shade number 04 as the eyeliner with an eyeliner brush to achieve a kohl eye look. This shade palette from Ingrid is exceptionally good, especially if you are in a hurry. Just take a glance at the back of the shade kit and follow the steps. It’s great for beginners as it requires no complex techniques
Step 7: Revlon Illuminance™ Crème Eye Shadow Palette
I used the copper orange color on the center of my lid for the added illumination. It is a very good kit from Revlon with amazing shadows that are extremely versatile and highly pigmented. The cream shadows are very good if you are in hurry as they stick on the lid and don’t budge.
Step 8: Kiko Milano – Smart Essential Face Palette for Viral Latte Makeup look
For the main look, you have to use the bronzer, and for that, I selected the Kiko Milano bronzer from their Smart Essential Face Palette. It is a very versatile kit again, but the bronzer did not appear as intense on my face as I wanted.
However, it did help give a sculpted guide to the overall Viral Latte Makeup look. I used the same highlighter for a subtle golden glow from the same palette and also added it on the eyelid as well for the pop of shimmer.
Step 9: Stunning Sienna from Max factor
Because I wanted a sun-kissed, very bronzy skin, I selected my all-new favorite blush called Sienna from Max Factor. It added warmth and depth to my face, making it truly bronzy and sexy. I also think it made my face look much more sculpted.
Step 10 : Lip Liner – Urban Cafe from NYX
Next I applied the lip liner urban cafe from NYX which is a great investment in makeup and I think every brown girl should have it. It is long lasting and prevents the lipstick from bleeding and make it look so good
Step 11 : Lipstick – Morning Breeze
Then I applied the beautiful and my favourite brown lipstick from MAC called Morning breeze which I got from their Just chilling set. It looks very beautiful on brown skin and is perfect for the latte look
Step 12 : Kajal Pencil – Teddy from essence
I didn’t want to use any pencil, but my eyes looked empty, so I lightly used this pencil as a Kajal to bring everything together. It is a very beautiful brownish pencil and looks extremely gorgeous on brown skin.
Step 13 : Colossal mascara from Maybelline
For the lashes, I used my go-to Colossal Mascara from Maybelline. It is an affordable and effective mascara to make the eyelashes look bigger.
And TADA the Viral Latte Makeup look is complete.
PS: You can definitely use makeup sprays after setting your base and at the end of your makeup, but since I didn’t have to go anywhere, I saved the sprays. Well, I ain’t a makeup addict for nothing.
