Makeup Vs Natural Beauty

The title of my post is quite misleading... In the sense that my today's post is not gonna be listing out a comparison between the two, rather I am on the hunt to prove that people even implying that they are both related (in an opposite) is actually baseless and utter nonsense.

With social networking all rampant, people keep coming out with thoughts and quotes of the day and even "inspirational" pictures about how natural beauty is important and makeup masks it... It's all booger and I think we need people to realise that makeup isn't all that bad especially when you are doing it cause you enjoy it.

Boo to these....

So?

 

Whats even the relation between the two? It's stupid to even have a quote like this!

Its like saying True Beauty is not playing soccer and being 125% ok with it! No relation right?

No it doesn't cause to do makeup or not is a matter of personal choice!

Tell me, people who do makeup aren't they naturally beautiful? Or are naturally beautiful people not to do makeup? I mean isn't the whole debate utterly useless? Why should there even be a relation between makeup and Natural beauty? I am naturally beautiful FULLSTOP I love doing makeup FULLSTOP Why is there a need for me to justify why I need makeup? I never have to justify why I chose to wear a Red top then why should I be justifying my choice of a Red lippy?

I often say that makeup makes me feel confident. Whats wrong with that? Don't we comb our hair everyday in the morning to look well groomed? Then whats the harm in wearing a bit of eye liner to look sharper or wear a flattering lippy to enhance my complexion? Its my life, my natural beauty that I wish to enhance and my money with which I buy my makeup! Whats it to anyone?

On a lighter note...

Handlooms Of India Photoshoot Looks...

Helllloooooo my beautiful readers :) If you follow my blog regularly or at least are on FB and twitter with me you'll know that I had been chosen as the Face of Handlooms Of India? No, you didnt know? Oooh check this post out then...

Anyways, with their online store launch on Ganesh Chaturthi i.e. 19th September, the photoshoots for various of their products are now in full swing! And that means I have become even more busy... Phew! But I am enjoying every bit of it :) I am today gonna be sharing a few pics with you all (at least the ones I am allowed to share :P) to give you guys an insight about the makeup I did and the looks I was ask to sport :) So here goes...

There are three major looks that I sported that require a mention here...
1. Look 1: Manic and esoteric for some gorgeous hand crafted Camel Bone jewellery. For this I did a fierce and thick winged liner look. I did it for me and another model...

2. Look 2: Modern and eclectic for a traditional handloom called Khand that seems to be taking the ramps at LFW by storm. For this I did a smokey eye look.

3. Look 3: Traditional and Indian for a batch of beautifully woven handloom sarees from the Deccan. For this I used some golden eye shadow and smoked it out with some copper and black shadows.

Do let me know how you like the looks...
And stay tuned for more of these photo shoot glimpses ;)
