Make-up Trend: Dewy Skin

At the unveiling of the Lonely Planet Magazine, Kareena Kapoor's skin glowed on stage. For a similar effect, polish your skin with a gentle exfoliator with round scrubbing beads, which are gentle enough for sensitive complexions. Follow with a lightweight moisturizer on dry areas like the forehead and cheeks, where there are fewer oil glands. If you still need a bit of coverage, brush on translucent powder instead of pressed—it provides an airy, more natural finish.

Make-up Trend: Neutral Lips

In her latest ad for Longines, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan sported a look that was all about lips. Candy red lips may be all the rage, but that isn't the only way to make a statement. If you're wearing earthy makeup, choose a lip shade that's in the same palette with a hint of sheen. It's unexpected, understated, and surprisingly chic.

Make-up Trend: Shimmery Cheeks

If you've got well-moisturized skin like Asin, a squirt of liquid or gel blush with a hint of shimmer could be just what your cheeks need. To get her look at the announcement of The 55th Idea Filmfare Awards, choose a subtle shade that matches the natural flush of your cheeks. Then, with your middle finger, dab blush onto the apples of your cheeks and blend with both your middle and ring finger. The clean finger will pick-up any excess product—and keep you from overdoing your blush.

Make-up Trend: Mossy Green Eyeliner

At the Stardust Awards, one couldn't help peek at Kareena's gorgeous green eyeliner when she accepted her award of the night. The eyeliner really made her gray-green eyes pop like no other. The trick with bright eyeliner is that it will give you pizazz without making you look like you're 15. To avoid making it look garish, apply a thin line and wing it at the edges. Also, keep the rest of the face soft and simple.

Make-up Trend: Fresh Winter Skin

Femina Magazine has decided on the following ladies to be on their 50 Most Beautiful Woman Issue: Katrina Kaif, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone and Kareena Kapoor. All four of them look absolutely stunning on their respective covers. One thing they all have in common is gorgeous skin. To get your skin to look as fresh in the winter as well, blend a dab of moisturizer with a dose of tinted moisturizer. You'll get an even and subtle application, and a much needed glow.

Make-up Trend: Pastel Pink Glossy Lips


Sonam Kapoor's glossy pink lips were subtle and statement-making all at once, also they looked amazing against that teal Diane Von Furstenberg dress she wore. If a bold pink hue feels too childish, go for a greyish, dusty shade like the one Sonam chose. The result? All the fun of bubblegum pink without feeling like a teenybopper.
