When you’re in the spotlight as much as Kriya Gangiah, you have to make sure you always look your best. Getting red carpet ready is pretty hard work and although Kriya often does her own makeup, sometimes she gets help from her fabulous makeup artist Shanaaz Surtie of CATRICE.
Here, Shanaaz shares her four best beauty tips to help you look and feel great at your next event. Smile!
1 Always prep
Before you apply your makeup, it’s important to prep your skin with a good primer – the ultimate secret to flawless-looking skin! For the best application, apply your primer with a combination of your fingers and a brush.
2 Cover up
If you feel like you need a bit more coverage, reach for a concealer. This will keep those stubborn spots and marks hidden without requiring you to pack on layers of foundation.
3 Get glowing
To achieve a golden highlighted look, choose a bronzer that has a bit of glow to it. Apply it with a fluffy brush to buff the bronzer into the skin. This effect looks amazing in photographs (and selfies!) as it ‘pops’ the cheekbone.
4 Double up
Using one product in two ways is Shanaaz’s favourite beauty hack. Use the same bronzer on both your cheeks and eyes for a sun-kissed look – efficient and effective!
