The humidity and sharp sunlight make it tedious for heavy makeup to last long, which is why everyone is opting for dewy makeup–a lightweight alternative with a dewy, glowy and glossy finish. The benefit of dewy makeup is that it’s rooted in hydrated skin as a base with skin-complementing formulas for a layer of makeup. It can be paired with maximalist makeup trends like the dramatic cat eye and defining contour. This look has been sported for all occasions ranging from weddings, work events and even a night out at the club. Ahead, we curate a list of our favourite dewy makeup looks recently.

Dewy damsel
Janhvi Kapoor looked nothing less than a vision in ivory by Manish Malhotra for the NMACC’s Grand Opening Event, her intricate lehenga was paired with a choker and solitaire studs by the said designer. When it comes to her makeup, she opted for a clean girl aesthetic at large, naturally shaped eyebrows, mascara-separated curled eyelashes, a lightweight foundation, highlighter accentuations and an ultra glossy coral lip. Fasten your hair in a sleek tight medium perched bun with a centre parting, and use some hair gel or a minimal amount of oil to nail the hairdo.
The glass skin effect
The Bedhadak actor’s outfit is the definition of boho chic and she has left all her critics floored and how! Without or with the statement jewellery, this look is perfect for your next date night especially when you’re feeling experimental. Ladies, it is important to keep in mind that to achieve a glass skin finish like this, a rigorous skincare routine must be followed at least a few days prior. Start off with a hydrating essence, a hyaluronic acid serum or mask should follow and finish it off with a retinol face cream to lock in all the moisture and give you a lasting glow.
Shining under the disco light
When you’re in a setting with dim or varying lighting, selecting the right makeup can be tricky since too much or too little makeup can either make you look pale and washed out or clash with the lighting. The safest bet is to elevate your existing skin texture, opt for a dewy primer and top it off with a glowy low-coverage foundation, pigmented liquid blush, light brown shimmery eyeshadow, glossy lip and hydrating setting spray. Like the makeup and skincare mogul, style your hair in a light brown and caramel highlighted one-length bob.
