Shoppers' Stop Contest Winner:

Nomita Khanna from Ludhiana was our contest winner. Her beauty tip:

To get high, sculpted cheekbones – use a combination of a bronzer and pink blush. For this glamorous Hollywood-esque look, suck in your cheeks then apply the bronzer under your cheekbones to create the illusion of depth. Now, sweep a pink blush over the apples of your cheeks to give them a rosy hue.

We received lots of other wonderful tips from our readers. Featured below are a few pointers that we’re sure will come in handy:

1) Use a nude lip liner on the whole of your lips -- not just to outline them-- before applying lipstick. This really makes lipstick last for hours longer. - Anuradha Anjan, Bangalore

2) To make your eyes look fresh, rub a cube of ice on your upper eyelids and then apply some kajal. Finish with a coat of mascara. The ice refreshes the skin around your eyes and the mascara makes them look bright and cheerful. - Priya G, Mumbai

3) If you are bored with conventional lip colours, try this trick. Grab an eye shadow palette and choose a colour you like. Apply the colour on your lip with an eye shadow brush. Then use a clear lip gloss over it and you have a brand new shade! - Tulika Dahiya, Mumbai

4) Dab some light gold shimmer on the corner of the eyes and just a bit underneath. It opens up the eyes up and draws away from dark circles instantly. - Gauri Spratt, Mumbai

Congratulations! You all win a set of exclusive Verve postcards.
