“You can take a Bong out of Bengal, but you can never take Bengal out of a bong!”
And most of you are probably aware of the grand Durga Puja celebrations that Bengalis hold. Bengal's few days of enormous celebrations dwarf the grandeur and luxury of any other holiday in the country. Food, fashion, beauty, and people from all walks of life become energised and exude the spirit of Pujo. Today I'm going to provide a few fashion and cosmetic ideas to help you look your best during Durga Puja.
1. Kohl-rimmed eyes
Bengali women are famous for their stunning eyes. With flawlessly kohl-ringed eyes, you can take your attractiveness to the next level. Create a smouldering smokey eye appearance that will capture the attention of all the gorgeous girls and guys out there.

2. Soft shades for the day
Avoid brilliant ruby red on Ashtami morning, no matter how much you want to make an impact. Wear skin-tone-appropriate nude tones or a coral-pink tint that expresses your inner Goddess.

3. Go bold for the night out
What's a festival without a splash of bright red lipstick, am I right? We like Disguise Cosmetics since it's vegan, devoid of animal fats and oils, and lasts a long time. Their satin matte lipsticks are velvety and stay on even through lengthy meals – score! This Red Model is extremely pigmented, definitely waterproof, and packed with the benefits of almond oil, avocado, jojoba oil, and argan oil.

Choose complementing accessories to go with your new outfits. Your accessories reveal a lot about your personality and sense of style. Properly done hair can save you the hassle of frequent combing before those selfies.
