Be it summers or winters, skin prep is an essential step that you can never miss. In winters, the skin may require an extra dose of moisturisation and care. If your skin is not well hydrated, the base and makeup may not be that flawless. A hydrating moisturizer and hydrating primer should be locked in the skin at the right time.

You cannot miss out on lip care, especially in winters. Most of us often tend to have chapped and dry lips during winters. If you’re looking for beauty tips for winter, you must instantly take note of this. You should keep your lips hydrated before the makeup and even choose a lipstick that will help you keep your lips hydrated and moisturized. 

4. Avoid matte products 

Matte products can lead to dry up the layers and may make your makeup flaky. To prevent this, you must minimize the number of matte products that you use in winter. You can even consider a trial makeup and judge the skills of the makeup artist before the actual day. You should even tell your makeup artist about your skin type and issues. 

5. Use waterproof makeup
