Celebrity makeup artist Namrata Soni suggests top makeup tips to ace your monsoon look
Rainy days may wash away your blues, but don't let those raindrops wash away your glam! As the clouds roll in and humidity rises, your regular makeup routine needs a monsoon makeover. From smudge-proof kajals to dewy-not-greasy skin hacks, it's time to rainproof your beauty game. Monsoon Makeup tips by celebrity makeup artist Namrata Soni(Pexels) 'Before applying makeup, always begin with a clean face to ensure there's no residual makeup', says celebrity makeup artist Namrata Soni. Namrata Soni has around 25 years of experience and celebrities like Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, Rani Mukherjee, Isha Ambani, former Miss World, Manushi Chillar, and Twinkle Khanna have served as blank canvases for her makeup. Namrata, who is also the co-founder of the Simply Nam makeup range, tells HT Lifestyle her top tips for a perfect monsoon makeup. Use a hydrating sheet mask to prepare your skin for makeup Namrata insists on applying a hydrating sheet mask after cleaning your face, as it creates the perfect base for long-lasting makeup. She adds further that after removing the sheet mask, it's advisable to gently blot away any excess serum using the makeup removing towels. Namrata relies on a great deal on the makeup removal towels to cleaning out your face for any makeup or dust residues. Moisturiser is the key to a hydrating skin Simply Nam co-founder states, 'Next, prep your skin according to your skin type. If you have oily skin, opt for a gel-based or serum-based moisturiser. For dry skin, choose something more hydrating. Once that's absorbed, apply a hydrating eye cream and finish with a lip balm.' Primers helps in sweat-proofing your makeup Rain and humid weather comes hand in hand, resulting in sweating! Thus, Namrata swears by a primer in humid weather and states that primers must be applied on to cheeks, forehead, or chin. For extremely dry skin, she recommends using a hydrating primer on the dry patches. However, people with oily skin should apply an oil-control primer on their T-zone. Soni also recommends letting the primer sit in before applying the base for a better grip. Water-resistant makeup products are a no-brainer In order to prevent your makeup from melting in the rain, she advises reaching for water-resistant products that perform beautifully without feeling heavy or harsh on the skin. She says, 'Always use a water-resistant kajal. Her go-to is applying it on the waterline and setting the lower lash line with a matching matte eyeshadow. It locks in the pigment beautifully.' Lightweight foundation for humid weather 'Look for lightweight and water-resistant formulas. A satin-matte or soft matte finish works beautifully as it won't feel heavy and lasts longer in this humidity,' says Namrata. Quick fixes if your makeup starts melting Namrata also shares her quick fixes to makeup melting, 'If your makeup starts to melt, gently blot away excess oil with a tissue or blotting paper, then lightly dab on some pressed powder to mattify and freshen up your base without layering on too much product'. She further adds that a spritz of setting spray can also instantly refresh your look and keep everything in place for the rest of the day. Some basic makeup products that should be kept for touch-ups Namrata shares that keeping a mini beauty kit is a must, but do keep it minimal. A good mascara, a hydrating tinted lip balm, pressed powder, kajal, lipstick, and a small beauty blender or powder puff is all you need for quick touch-ups. At the end, while monsoon is all about enjoying savoury with your favourite beverages, these tips are sure to help you keep up with your makeup game.

Why did 1993 Miss India Namrata Shirodkar leave Bollywood? Did she sacrifice her career for husband, or it was...
Before choosing a quieter life away from the arc lights, Namrata Shirodkar had carved a niche with memorable performances in films like Vaastav and Pukar . She even made an international appearance alongside Aishwarya Rai in Bride and Prejudice . But while Bollywood had its doors wide open for her, Namrata drew her boundaries — and stuck to them firmly. In a throwback interview with Rediff, Namrata admitted to turning down multiple offers that required her to perform intimate or bold scenes. 'So many!' she said when asked if she was offered such roles. 'But I'm not comfortable doing such things. I will not kiss or make love on screen. I'm not desperate. Thank God I come from a safe background.' Her decision wasn't limited to just selective scripts. After marrying Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu in 2005, Namrata consciously chose to step away from acting altogether. Speaking to journalist Prema, she revealed, 'Mahesh was very clear about wanting a non-working wife. Even if I had a corporate job, he would have asked me to quit. We had something very special between us.' Namrata and Mahesh met on the sets of Vamsi in 2000, and while sparks flew early on, the couple kept their relationship under wraps for a while. The former Miss India (1993), crowned at just 21, eventually shifted her focus entirely to family life. Today, Namrata and Mahesh are parents to two children — their daughter Sitara, a budding social media star, and a son who has already made brief appearances in films. Namrata's on-screen journey may have been short, spanning just 14 films, but her graceful exit and steadfast choices continue to be remembered and respected.
