    When it comes to special occasions, lip gloss is one of the most easy and glamorous options to pick out. It’s shiny, glittery, and the perfect solution for the holiday and wedding season. In fact, from Janhvi Kapoor and Isha Ambani to Sharvari Wagh and Ananya Panday, so many celebrities were seen donning a glossy lip to Manish Malhotra’s Diwali bash this year. But all lip gloss looks deserve to be accompanied by lip liners, especially if you use contrasting colours together. “Defining your lips with lip liner not only accentuates shape and size, but it's also long-wearing," shared L.A.-based makeup artistTami El-SombatiwithCovetuer, as she added "Blending it out with a gloss adds dimension and the illusion of fuller lips." It’s a great way to create a bold lip look without being obvious, or visually stark.

    This is a combination with will flatter most Indian women, as brown is a shade that always works for us. Don’t forget to blend the brown lip liner well before you apply the clear lip gloss so that a harsh line does not show up.

    This combination will make your red lips last much longer. And here, you don’t have to concern yourself with blending the lip liner because it’s more about building up pigment by using two products than creating visual contrast. All you have to start applying the lip liner from the outer corners of your lips and work it inwards, blend it a little and then apply the red lip gloss.

    Nude Lip gloss

    For Manifest to become one of Cambridge Dictionary's most viewed words of 2024 — 1,30,000 hits and counting — it means some of us must have Googled it at least once. I know, I hit that search button over and over again
    because each time I looked at it, I saw a new meaning.

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.
