Popular Traditional Makeup Looks For Ganesh Chaturthi
First let’s begin with some of the most popular Ganpati makeup looks that women have adorned over the years.
1. Bold Lips With Gajra
This lovely makeup look has been a classic favourite during auspicious Ganpati festivities.
Fresh, fragrant Mogra flowers are turned into a ‘Gajra’ and tied to either one’s loose hair or as an updo. And to add definition to the look, a bold lipstick (like our Pan-tastic in a stunning deep wine colour) is applied. Pan-tastic is a velvet matte finish lipstick with a rich colour payoff and at the same time it’s super comfortable to wear all day.
2. Deep and Smokey Eye Makeup
When it comes to Indian women’s beauty aesthetics, eyes are an irresistible part of the charm. And smokey eye makeup stands out in a way that makes heads turn!
To create this look you need two products, an Eyeliner: Wing For Your Eyes and a Kajal: Nazar Na Lage. Start by lining both your lower and upper waterline with the black Kajal. Once you get the thickness and deep colour you were looking for, smudge the kajal on both the water lines.
Next, make a thin stroke with the eyeliner on your top lid, mirroring the shape of your eyes. This Ganesha makeup look is perfect for highlighting the natural shape of your eyes !
3. Shimmery Highlighter Makeup Look
Are you planning to head to festive pandals this Ganesh Chaturthi? Well such a plan calls for a special festive makeup look, and what’s more special than a face that sparkles and shimmers!
Here’s how you can add the magic simply by using LoveChild’s Illuminator. This liquid illuminator can be applied with or without a base foundation. Available in 2 shades Caramel Custard and Sparkling Peach, you can build the illuminator according to your liking to get a sparkling makeup glow.

Embody the Marathi ‘mulgi’ aesthetic with a charming nath, a set of bangles and a nauvari saree - the classic recipe for a gorgeous Ganesha makeup look in Maharashtrian style.
Go bold with deep red lips with our Hot Pop (Deep Pink) and Twisted (Blue Toned Red) shades which are the absolute showstoppers. To complement the bright colour, bring some drama to the stage with our eyeliner: Draw a sharp wing on both the eye corners.
Complete the look with a final touch to your brows with Brow Me Points that makes your eyebrows look bold and beautiful. Just begin by outlining the outer shape of your eyebrows and fill them in using a shade like our Greyish Garnish!

Going for something more demure and mindful? A softer festive look shines in homely settings and family gatherings. For the base, start with a skin tint like our Skip Everything Face Serum that evens out your skin tone and gives a glowing, dewy look.
The next step is the brow gel. Pick our Brow Me Points brow gel and make fine strokes with the spoolie applicator to lift the look of your brows. Add a touch of pink creme blush and blend it really well over your cheeks. Our Bubblegum Baraat is a winner for a soft and festive makeup look. Finally, apply a lip creme like our Meetha Jaljeera and Masala Chai which are made for the soft glam look!
