Let the lips do the talking!

Planning to go for a bold lip on your next Facetime date? Well, that's one way to make a fab first impression!

But when it comes to going bold and beautiful, what really makes or breaks it, depends upon how you manage to offset the bold lip with subtler eye makeup. To help you strike that perfect balance, Celebrity Makeup Artist, Ashima Kapoor shares her product picks and tips on how to rock that bold lip with subtle, nude eye makeup.

Step 1: You can achieve a subtle, yet glamorous eye-makeup look with just two shades! Pick the perfect eye shadow and highlighter, and you're good to go.

Step 2: Pick a beige or pink eye shadow and apply it on the eyelid.

Step 4: Go over the eyelid with a very short winged eyeliner. One could also use a soft brown shade, just under the lower lash-line, to add a little definition to the eyes.
