Not only fashion trends but also beauty trends do
keep changing often. So having knowledge of the current beauty trend is very
important. Yesteryear people loved shiny glowing skin, but nowadays all are in
love with the matte look.
If you go through the beauty magazines or websites
you will notice the word ‘matte’ or ‘mattifying’ appearing here and there so
many times! Girls do not want shiny faces, the matte look is very IN these
days. Indian being a tropical country, our climate throughout the year is hot
and humid, thus making most of our skin oily and sweat prone. This gives a
shiny look to our faces.

With the help of face powders, compact powders,
loose powders or any kind of matte makeup, you can achieve the matte look. Not
only in makeup, but oil free sunscreen is also highly recommended to be used in
India. To protect our skin from strong sun rays, nothing beats an oil-free
sunblock. So ditch the regular sunscreen creams and lotions and go go for
oil-free varieties, be it in gel form or in any other forms.
For acne-prone skin, you need to reduce the natural
oil secretion. To avoid shiny face, you may go for mud masks. Once in a week
applying such mask will help you. Excess oil from the skin will be absorbed by
the mud. To get rid of greasiness, take the help of blotting papers.
Foundations with kaolin clay will be specially helpfully for you, as kaolin
clay helps in absorbing excessive oil. Another ingredient titanium dioxide can
also be of much help. Also do remember to opt for facial products which wont
block the pores.
To avoid shiny look, by all means do avoid shimmery
or glittery eye shadows or eye colors. Also too much of gloss on lips can
hinder the matte look. So stick to mattes for achieving a fresh matte face. Stay
far away from makeup which contains mineral oil.
