Planning to look the best for Christmas and New Year parties? Here are some simple tips to look your best…
The ongoing festive season is synonymous not just with devotion, fun and revelry, but is also about the new clothes, shoes and accessories. Women of all ages spend a lot of time just deciding the various looks and ensembles to be worn on the various puja days. The best thing about this season is that even those who do not really care much about looking good, want to look their best when visiting the pandals.
For that flawless radiance: Young women are opting for all kinds of quick, non-invasive treatments to get perfect skin during the festive season. Dermatologist Dr Apratim Goel says, “Women are opting for soft peels, gel peels and chemical peels. These vary according to skin type and need. The dull, tanned topmost layer of the skin is peeled away. It also helps to get rid of dark spots and lighten scars, and reveals the fresh flawless layer of skin.” These peels do take a few days to show results and should be done under the guidance of qualified dermatologists or cosmetologists.
For the perfect pout: A lip filler can enhance your natural lips and give it a fuller pout. Cosmetic surgeon Dr Sandip Jain says, “Fillers are injectible gels made of hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance in our body. So, there is no risk of rejection or infection. Filler injections are done in the doctor’s office, takes few minutes and one can go back to work immediately.” The results begin to show in two to five days.
Iron out the fine lines: To get a botox jab, you don’t need to wait to be 40. “Even young men and women in their 30s are getting botox to even out the fine lines on their faces,” says Dr Goel. This procedure is also quick and non-invasive.
Go sweat-free: Festive season means spending a lot of time outdoors, in the hot, humid climate. There are bound to be sweat patches on your expensive festive clothes. Cosmetologist Dr Jamuna Pai says, “Botox helps to stop underarm sweating.”
Style your hair well: Neat and well-groomed hair that has zero flyaways and is completely no-frizz, is what every young woman is opting for. Manageable hairstyles that fall over your shoulders and back, in a satiny, smooth wave, is the ‘in’ look. Many also opt for bold global colours and highlights. Says aesthetician Ritu Kumar Tanwar, “Keratin treatment, hair smoothening, hair rejuvenation to strengthen and protect hair or a hair botox are popular.” Hair stylists say that girls with long hair are opting for different kinds of braids – fishtail braids and other braids woven with beads and threads are most sought-after.
Body Basics: Treatments like full body polishing and back polishing are extremely popular this season, thanks to all the backless, low-back ensembles that are in vogue. Dead skin is exfoliated and massaged to lend it a smooth look and supple glow. Exotic manicure, pedicures and special nail treatments are also in.
