Basic Makeup steps for quick Diwali Glam up:

The items to keep in hand when you’re a busy mom and need to look festive are:

Primer:

After washing your face, apply light lotion for hydration and then apply NYX Primers. The Primer will quickly help to minimize pores, give a matte look and will ensure your quick makeup lasts longer! Buy here

Foundation:

A good foundation from known brands such as Lakme or L’oreal will help ensure your makeup is long-lasting and will even out your complexion. Powders tend to not last as long and will not give you as much coverage for long wear. Buy here

Liquid Eyeliner in black:

There is something about bold eyes and the festive look. They go hand in hand. Try to use good quality eyeliner in liquid consistency like L’oreal Paris Liner Magique or Lakme Eye Pens. The liquid liners are easy to use and long-lasting and also are highly pigmented to give that blackest black definition to your eyes. For the bottom lid, use a kajal. Buy here
