Gen Z Soft Glam Makeup Trends For A Stunning Rakhi Glow-Up
Soft Glam is the way to Go!
Let’s be honest nobody has time for heavy, cakey makeup when you’re busy dodgingladdoosand dodgy compliments from relatives. This year, Gen Z is all about soft glam—effortless, fresh, and full of authentic personality. Swap out your full-coverage foundation for a skin tint or sheer base that lets your skin breathe. Dab on some cream blush in warm rose, coral, or berry tones. A little shimmer on the lids (think champagne or gold) goes a long way. Pair it with fluffy, natural brows and a swipe of tinted gloss in mauve or pink; and just like that, you are selfie-ready.
Let your eyes do the talking
This Rakhi, give your black kajal a break. Gen Z is loving soft, playful pops of colour, pastel liners in lilac, mint, or baby blue are all the rage and add just the right amount of fun.
Feeling bold? Go for jewel-tonedkajalslike plum or teal on your lower lash line. Add a hint of sparkle to your lids or even a tiny rhinestone at the corners of your eyes—it’s subtle, but totally festive. This is where you get to play. Whether you’re all about the soft minimal look or love to bring the drama, let your eyes speak your style.
Glossy Lips are in. Bye, Matte!
Matte lips had their moment, but gloss is back. Think hydrated lips that scream festive freshness. Tinted lip oils in cherry or coral shades are perfect for that soft glam glow. Want to get that clean Gen Z pout? Line your lips with a nude liner and top it with clear gloss. Simple, pretty, and perfect for those last-minute Rakhi photos or boomerangs with your sibling.
Tradition, with a Twist
Rakhi is rooted in tradition. But who says your look can’t be modern with a desi touch? Try pairing your soft glam with a littlebindiand some shimmer on the lids. Match your blush and lip shade for a clean, cool vibe. Want to go bold? Crank up the highlighter and blush and throw in those voluminous lashes for a bit of drama. It’s all about blending culture with creativity where classic meets cool.
Let your makeup tell your story
At the heart of it, Rakhi is about connection. It’s about showing up for your sibling (even if they stole your charger again), celebrating the bond, and just being your true self.
Maybe you’re the emotional one tearing up, or the one cracking jokes and filming a GRWM reel mid-puja. Whatever your vibe is, let your makeup reflect that.
So, grab your brushes, blend that blush, gloss those lips, and let your Rakhi glow-up speak for itself.
