On the morning of Ashtami, you want to wear a traditional outfit, and on the night of nabami, you want to wear a western outfit. How do you dress up? Actress Sayantani Guhathakurta gave tips on how to wear makeup with any dress.
Durga Puja, the grandest festival for Bengalis, is not just a religious celebration but also a time for showcasing the elegance of Bengali culture and beauty. Bengali women have a unique way of balancing tradition and modernity when it comes to their beauty regimen and dressing during this festive season.
In the morning, a light touch of vermilion, a hint of lipstick, a touch of mascara, and a dash of kohl are all it takes to enhance their natural beauty. It's all about embracing simplicity.
However, as the sun sets, Bengali women take it up a notch with winged eyeliner, bold new-age makeup, and smoky eyes. The evenings are for experimenting, and it's during Durga Puja that they can truly shine.
Taking care of their skin is a year-round ritual. Daily sunscreen, toning, and moisturising are non-negotiable. They understand the importance of maintaining healthy skin.
Bengali women have a penchant for simple makeup, but they love to add a touch of radiance. The well-loved glow is their go-to. The festive season may limit their hair experimentation, but they make the most of it. Straight hair is in vogue, and they can also easily pull off braids and flowers in their hair to catch everyone's attention.
Dashami, the last day of the festival, is a time when vermilion plays a significant role. Applying sindoor, performing rituals, and dressing in traditional attire is a mark of respect for their culture. Simplicity is the key to comfort and confidence for Bengali women, and it shows throughout the festival.
Durga Puja is not just about celebrating the goddess; it's about celebrating oneself as well. The Bengali women's beauty and style, marked by a perfect blend of tradition and modernity, are truly a sight to behold.
