Whether it’s beauty, fitness, dancing or acting, Katrina Kaif is a perfectionist. If you always have an eye on her for inspiration, you’re a part of our gang, especially when it comes to her makeup routines. She has perfected minimal, maximal and every look in between to create statement makeup styles that we wish we can pull off. From flawless skin to contouring like a pro, her personal makeup hacks are our holy grail.
We asked her about her favourite tips and tricks related to concealing and perfecting the base. She talks about her new launch - Kay Beauty’s HD Liquid Concealer, and why it’s become her go-to product.
Beauty Book: What’s your pro tip to finding the right shade?
Katrina: Always try the product on your chin (not your hand) to understand the correct tone.
Beauty Book: Is there a unique way you use this liquid concealer, apart from the base?
Katrina: Because of its texture and the caring ingredients, it’s a great primer for under eyes, especially after a rough night. It plumps up the skin and evens out the skin tone.
Beauty Book: What’s your go-to look that’s easy to create and doesn’t need a lot of products?
Katrina: A good moisturiser before any makeup is a must. I put on concealer under my eyes and as a contouring tool to lift my cheekbones and blend. I use a very lightweight, almost sheer foundation to finish the base. I love a basic kajal look with a little smudged-kohl on the upper lid as well, and finally some nude pink lips!
Beauty Book: What’s a concealer hack you’re really proud of?
Katrina: I often correct my makeup mistakes with concealers! It’s so easy and especially when you’re in a rush it’s super hard to start all over again. I just dab on some concealer and hide the mistakes - whether it’s an eyeliner gone wrong, a very dark blush, some eyeshadow mishap… anything.
Beauty Book: What’s the best part about this new liquid concealer from your label?
Katrina: The most important part about your base is blending. This lightweight and hydrating concealer merges with your skin when you blend. It glides on and leaves a no shine, flawless cover.
