Girls, we know you’ve got a fabulous day planned with your gal pals—whether it’s indulging in some much-needed retail therapy or clinking glasses of bottomless mimosas. Moments like these take your worries away. And let’s be real, you’ll probably be snapping selfies nonstop until your phone is begging for more storage. But here’s the big question: have you figured out your look yet?

If not, then you’re in the right place! We are here to help you nail a stunning look that’ll have you reaching for your front camera every five minutes during your brunch date with the besties.

The Look of the Day

For a stylish brunch look, opt for a casual yet chic dress or jumpsuit that pairs beautifully with your makeup. Think pastel shades like soft pink, baby blue, or mint green for a fresh, spring-inspired vibe.

If you prefer a more minimalist approach, neutral tones like beige, white, or light gray offer a timeless, versatile backdrop that lets your brunch makeup and accessories shine.

1. Fresh, Daytime Glow

Before diving into makeup, let’s get your skin glowing! For brunch, a fresh, daytime glam look is the way to go. Start with the Lakmé Dew Drama Gel Crème to hydrate and brighten your skin. Don’t forget to lock in that glow with Lakmé Sun Expert SPF 50 PA++++ 1% Hyaluronic Gel, and be prepared for compliments on your glowing skin to start rolling in.

For your base, keep it lightweight and chic. Swap out heavy foundations for Lakmé Vit C Superglow Skin Tint. It’s packed with 3% Vitamin C complex and active hydrators that nourish your skin while evening out your tone over time. For added coverage around the under eye and dark spots, use Lakmé Vitamin C Superglow Concealer, giving you a glam finish!
