This week’s beauty looks moved between subtler takes on smoky eyes, rosy cheeks and messy hair, with each celebrity putting their own spin on familiar beauty codes. Kiara Advani brought a diffused take to brown smoky eyes, while Parineeti Chopra went deeper with a grunge-inspired finish. Sanya Malhotra matched her rosy peach blush to her red ensemble, while Lara Raj’s long curtain bangs fell into loose waves and Pratibha Ranta embraced soft, bouncy texture. Sonam Kapoor brought warmth to the mix with terracotta, copper and brown tones across the eyes. The looks moved between luminous skin, flushed cheeks and intense eyes, with each beauty look bringing its own mood. Read on for a line up that was made to inspire your next beauty look.
Matching her makeup to her desi outfit, Sanya Malhotra brought a flushed rosy peach blush that complemented her red suit. Her base had a fresh, softly perfected finish with a natural satin effect that gave the complexion an even appearance. Soft brown shadow defined the eyes, while a muted rosy peach shade was blended towards the outer corners and through the crease, matching the blush. A fine dark liner added further definition. Her hair was styled into an undone updo that avoided the look of a typical slick back bun, leaving her long jhumkas visible. A rosy-brown matte lip completed the look.
Coming in fresh with her power suit, Kiara Advani gave office siren makeup a softer spin. Her base had a soft focus finish that left the skin looking smooth and luminous, while warm taupe and brown tones kept the eyes as the main focus. The shadow was diffused rather than sharply defined, creating a soft smokey effect. Deeper brown liner was concentrated along both the upper and lower lash lines, defining and opening up the eyes while complementing their colour. A healthy flush came through with pink blush placed high on the cheeks. The lips were kept fresh with a hint of sheer balm for a hydrated finish. Her long natural waves were given a blown out effect and parted to the side.
Sonam Kapoor channelled a regal mood in a beige ensemble, pairing it with warm, copper-toned makeup. Her hair was parted neatly down the centre and worn long and straight. Rich terracotta, copper and warm brown tones were blended across the lids and into the crease. Deeper colour around the outer corners added depth, while the warmer shade through the centre kept the eyes dimensional. Her complexion had a warm, luminous finish that looked perfected without appearing matte or heavily made up. A warmer pink blush lifted the cheeks, while a soft pink gloss kept the lips understated. A long milky white manicure completed the look.
Lara Raj leaned into warm, sun-kissed beauty with long, voluminous waves and curtain bangs framing her face. Her complexion was bronzed with warm rose blush placed high on the cheeks to enhance the effect. White shadow at the inner corners blended into warm brown and bronzy tones across the lids, adding dimension to the eyes. Black kohl was used to tight line both the upper and lower lash lines, while long wispy lashes. Highlighter was strategically placed along the nose, beneath the brow bone and at the inner corners of the eyes. Her lips were lined and filled with a dark brown and deep rose shade, with the slightly deeper contour giving them definition while keeping the warm, monochromatic palette intact.
Parineeti Chopra made a comeback with a diffused smoky eye and long hair worn loose with a clean centre part. Her base was smooth, warm and softly finished, with an airbrushed effect that kept the complexion even. Dark brown, charcoal and black tones were concentrated across the lids and outer corners, creating a diffused, almost grunge inspired-smoky eye. Dark liner was worked into the lash line and smoked out rather than left as a crisp graphic line. The blush remained subtle and warm, adding subtle colour without taking attention away from the eyes. A muted nude lip with a soft satin finish kept the rest of the look understated.
