Celebrity-inspired Durga Pooja makeup looks
1. Sushmita Sen’s classic red look
Traditional beauty is flattering on all of us, because of it’s pops of colour and definition. To achieve this look, start with your base makeup, then go in with liner and kohl on your eyes, and add a regal touch with classic red lipstick. Smashbox's Always On Liquid Lips offer the ultimate lipstick experience with their luscious liquid textures for long-lasting wear and softness.
2. Mouni Roy’s eyes-in-focus look
Accentuate your eyes and let them do the talking with this look that features heavy black eyeliner. Keeping the rest of your makeup minimal, you can take your eyeliner game to the next level with Kiro's Liquid Pen Eyeliner in 'Carbon Black 01’ to nail this look. This waterproof, soft matte eyeliner glides on effortlessly, allowing you to achieve sharp, dramatic lines with ease. Whether you're going for a classic cat-eye or a bold winged look, this eyeliner delivers intense black pigment that stays put all day.
3. Bipasha Basu’s soft focus look
One of our favourite combinations – mascara to make the eyes pop and a flattering shade of lipstick. We recommend Etude House's Curl Fix Mascara in '01 Black.' This mascara's unique formula not only provides an intense black tint but also holds your lashes in a perfect curl all day long. That, combined with the rose colour of M.A.C’s Locked Kiss Ink Liquid Lipstick in ‘Decadence’ promises a unique look for your upcoming Durga Pooja.
4. Vidya Balan’s doe-eyed makeup look
We think kohl is akin to magic, in the way it can transform your look and take it from blah to voila! Recreate this elegant celebrity look with Givenchy's Kohl Couture Waterproof Eye Pencil in the timeless shade of 'N-1 Black.' This is a retractable eyeliner that lines your eyes with precision and has a creamy application and waterproof formula. Create smouldering, smoky eyes or crisp, thin lines effortlessly.
5. Rani Mukerji’s full-glam look
Soft brown shadow, berry lips and great contour come together to make this look, along with a coat of mascara for a sleek finish. Too Faced's Better Than Sex Mascara delivers superior volume, length, and hold to your lashes. With just one coat, your lashes can be made to look so luscious and full ,they'll have everyone wondering if they’re the real thing.
6. Sumona Chakravarti’s au naturale look
If you’ve ever wondered how just a swipe of lipstick can create an entire makeup look then check out how Sumona nails it. The effect of her clean makeup and pink-nude lips is simple, pretty glam. Try Sugar's Matte As Hell Crayon Lipstick in the shade 'Baby Houseman Deep Pink’, to recreate this look on your own. The velvety-smooth lip crayon is designed to give your lips a touch of pink that'll have you feeling festive-ready and comfortable too.
7. Tara Sutaria’s chic eye-catching look
If you’re in favour of the modern makeup look, try Tara’s sultry-shimmery eyeshadow and nude lips combination. Her eyes really stand out here, and we love Too Faced's Eye Shadow in the colour 'Italian Spit' for it. This product is a high-quality eyeshadow that offers rich, blendable pigments, allowing you to create endless eye-catching looks.
