Karva Chauth, a special occasion dedicated to married women, is just around the corner. It is considered to be one of the most sacred traditions for married Hindu women, who observe a fast from sunrise to moonrise for the long life, prosperity and well-being of their spouse.
The day starts early, before dawn, with prayers and a light meal, offered by the mother-in-law in the form of Sargi.
Despite, being on a day-long fast, the womenfolk pull out the best of dresses, ornaments and accessories for the religious rituals.
On the special occasion, to help you glow like the moon on the Karva Chauth night, here are 5 beauty tips and tricks:
1.Cleansing
Before you get ready for the special night with your best red saree, jewellery and the makeup, it is essential to prep the skin by cleansing. It will not only create a clean palette for the makeup to be applied over the Karva Chauth night but can work wonders in maintaining clear skin. You can go for natural ingredients available in the kitchen like Milk, Honey, curd or coconut oil and apply them on the face and leave it on for 2 to 3 minutes, then remove the product used by patting with a washcloth.
2.Facial steaming
Facial steaming can be used as a deep cleansing method to get the perfect glow. You can use steam of neroli or geranium oil or just hot water vapour to open the pores. It will get rid of the dirt, blackheads and grime from the pores of your skin and also clear pus from pimples.
