An Indian's Makeup Blog

I thought Kajol looked particularly stunning on this cover of Asian Woman Magazine !


Given that its a spring issue - the makeup is spot on !

Springs are all about peaches and pinks on your lips and cheeks ! Store away your reds, wines, burgundy shades and pull out your peaches, corals and pinks from hiding ! For the eyes - nothing is more springy than colored eyeliners. Bright greens, teals, blues replace dark blues and blacks in my stash.

For Kajol's Look :

Face
1. Start off with a light moisturizer
Rec : Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel / Aveeno Positively Smooth Facial Moisturizer
2. Follow up with a tinted moisturizer or a foundation with sheer to medium coverage.

Eyes
1. Do your brows and apply a satin peach shadow on your lids.

2. Line your upper lash line with a deep brown powder shadow and smudge it along the length of your lash line for a soft finish.
Rec : MAC Charcoal Brown / Folie Eyeshadow
3. Run a bright green eyeliner along your lower lash line and waterline. Or you could do a brown along the waterline.

Cheeks
1. Apply a matte/ satin peach blush on your cheeks.
Long face - go for the apple of your cheeks
Round face - Go upward and outward from the hollow of your cheeks (do a fish face to find the hollow) towards your temples.

Lips
1. Apply a peachy coral lipstick and follow with a clear lip gloss
Rec : Smashbox Lip Pencil - Amaretto / MAC Ravishing Lipstick

Bollywood actress Gul Panag looked absolutely fabulous at The Stardust Awards, earlier this week. Loved the classic combo of dark winged out eyeliner with a nude lip. Gul was kind enough to share the details with us !

The lipstick from The Body Shop could be #04 - Shell Pink or #30 -Beechnut.

Twinkle always manages to look elegant ! I almost always love her dress choices , her makeup and the hair.

The hair, runs in the family I guess. Her mom Dimple has amazing hair too !


Here, Twinkle went for a brown - bronze kohl rimmed eyes, hint of peach on cheeks and a nude lip.

Line the upper and lower lash line with a pencil liner and smudge dark brown powder shadow over it. Line the waterline with a black eyeliner pencil. Line the lower lash line with the dark brown powder shadow, as well . Add mascara and do your brows.
