From Soft Glam to Dramatic Smokey Eyes — Try Out These Beauty Looks For Eid 2022

3 years ago

Sometime next week (I say sometimes because the date is dependent on the sighting of the moon), over two billion Muslims around the world are set to celebrate Eid al-Fitr. The three-day holiday marks the end of Ramadan, the most sacred month on the Islamic calendar. After 30 days of fasting, practising self-restraint and discipline, and worshipping God, Eid acts as a reward for those observing the religion.

On the day, Muslims meet friends and family, exchange gifts, visit the local mosque for Salat al-Eid (Eid prayer) and dress in their best clothes. Seriously, if you want to feel like you’re at a photoshoot for Vogue, just stand near a mosque on the day of Eid.

With only a few more days left of Ramadan, it’s likely you have your Eid outfit sorted (if you don’t, then check out these stunning dresses) so it’s time to move on to the next component — makeup.

Let’s face it, a gorgeous makeup look makes the outfit. You can be wearing the most beautiful dress, but if your face isn’t beat then the entire ensemble looks incomplete. Whatever your preference, whether you prefer heavy glam or radiant minimalism, there’s a makeup look out there for you.

When deciding on a beauty look for Eid, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, you’re most likely going to be wearing the same face from morning till evening, so it’s important that it lasts. Second, what kind of outfit are you wearing? If your dress is quite busy then it’s probably best to keep it simple on the face. Lastly, keep in mind that you will be eating and drinking as the day goes on, so factor in the time to touch up.

Now that we have that out of the way, take a look at these gorgeous beauty looks ahead of Eid.
