Sunlit glow, fluttery lashes, and a bold red lip – this week’s beauty Instagrams made room for a tad bit more experimentation. The likes of Janhvi Kapoor, Sharvari Wagh, and Kriti Sanon took it upon themselves to serve vivid, striking looks that’ll be talked about for days to come. And if you, too, want to put your makeup skills to the test, now is your time to shine. With a lil’ nudge from us, we’re certain you’ll give these A-listers a run for their money; cop your favourite celebrity looks with our top product recommendations.
Deepika Padukone: Naturally Flushed
While expectant mothers are known to exhibit a ‘pregnancy glow’, Deepika takes things up a notch with some blush and illuminator action. Sporting a barely-there makeup look, she chooses to go subtle on the eyes and lips yet commanding attention with a flushed effect.
To recreate this minimal beauty look, drop your smokey eye palette and red lip and take to pretty pink hues. We recommend the Simply Nam Velvet Cream Magic Blush for ultra-dewy, rosy cheeks, LoveChild’s Star Song Illuminator to spotlight the high points of your face, and the Etude House non-smudging Fixing Tint for long-lasting lip colour.

Janhvi Kapoor: Soft Nude Glam
Doused in a neutral palette, Janhvi embraced ‘skinimalism’ by keeping her look understated yet alluring. Perfectly complementing her wavy, brown tresses, while she opted for subtle glam, she took to contouring to ensure her skin looked snatched.
To recreate this look, we recommend M.A.C’s new and improved MACximal Matte Lipstick in the shade Kinda Sexy for all-day comfortable wear, Swiss Beauty’s Craze Duo 2-in-1 Mascara for long, lifted lashes that’ll make you ditch falsies, and the Fenty Beauty Match Stix Contour Skinstick to draw focus to your best features.

Sharvari Wagh: Iridescent Glow
This time around, Sharvari left behind soft makeup and her glamazon diva self took centre stage. A generous dose of highlighter, voluminous lashes, and a luminous foundation brought her look together. Pro Tip: Consider securing your hair in a sleek, tight bun – just as Sharvari – to let your makeup be the showstopper.
To recreate this look, we recommend the ultimate glow-giver, Charlotte Tilbury’s Glowgasm Beauty Light Wand for improved luminosity, the Rom&nd Better Than Eyes 03 Dry Ragras Eyeshadow Quad for some smokey play, and PAC’s Studio HD Liquid Foundation for a flawless, skin-like base.

Kriti Sanon: Brilliantly Bold
Kriti said go bold or go home! Rocking a red lip, the star summoned baddie makeup with fuller brows, striking eyes, and a ravishing red lip. She held her hair back to make her look the star of the show and paired her lipstick with an equally vibrant outfit instead of opting for a muted tone.
To recreate this eye-catching look, we recommend Too Faced’s lightweight and long-wearing Melted Matte Lipstick, the e.l.f Cosmetics Instant Lift Brow Pencil for a polished, sophisticated set, and Nykaa’s Matte To Last Full Coverage Concealer for touch-ups on the go.

Priyanka Chopra: Glam Girl
Too glam to give a damn, PeeCee put her best foot forward at the recent Bvlgari event held in Rome. Sultry smokey eyes, snatched skin, and sharply outlined features, she took high glam makeup to a whole new level.
To recreate this look, we recommend Plum’s intensely pigmented, waterproof and smudge-proof All-Day-Wear Kohl Kajal, Huda’s Beauty’s Lip Contour 2.0 that glides on like butter to deliver a plumped effect, and the Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Powder to set it all in place for up to 12 hours.
