5 Celeb Approved Vacation Ready Makeup Looks
Clean Girl Chic
Clean girl makeup is the ultimate vacation vibe, and Khushi Kapoor is here to show us how it’s done. For that fresh, effortless glow, start with a sheer, dewy base that screams lit from within. Neatly define your brows with a brown pomade, then sweep soft brown eyeshadow over your lids. Smudge out some eyeliner, and layer on mascara, for that deep gaze. Add subtle cream contour to sculpt your forehead, cheekbones, jawline, and nose, and brighten up with a rosy blush that sweeps from cheeks to temples. Finish it off with a matte rose lipstick.

Golden Glam
There's nothing quite as chic as a golden beauty look literally perfect for jet-setting vibes and those envy-inducing Instagram vacay dumps. Need proof? Sobhita Dhulipala's sun-kissed glow is your ultimate mood board. Her flawless makeup blends neutral tones with sultry accents, striking the ideal balance between subtle and glam. The look features a generous sweep of bronzer, shimmering body highlights, and luminous highlighter to create that radiant, lit-from-within base. On the eyes, a rich golden makes a sweeping statement on the lids paired with golden dots on the other corners of your eyes. A delicate stroke of kohl on the tight line makes it pop with definition while still being subtle yet attractive through soft, fluttery lashes. And to top it off, nude colour unifies the entire look.

Sparkles For The Win
Whether it is the sun-kissed beaches or cocoa-sipping in the mountains, one thing's for sure – a shimmering eye look is a vacation must-have. Ask Janhvi Kapoor who perfected the art of vacation glam. The shimmering bronze eyeshadow stole the show paired with sultry kohl and a smoky wing to create that effortlessly smoldering vibe. Paired with generous coats of mascara took your lashes to new lengths, while a peachy blush brought warmth to your cheeks. The final touch? A swipe of nude lipstick to keep things fresh and polished. Ladies, if there's one thing to pack for your getaway, it's a makeup bag full of shimmer.

Glazed Goddess
We all know a dewy, high-sheen base is the key to the ultimate passport to an Instagram-worthy holiday snap–just ask Kylie Jenner. The glow screams ethereal chic, and the best part? It's entirely doable. Start with a radiant, sheer foundation for that lit-from-within look then let your eyes do all the talking with a wash of glittery baby-pink shade in the crease. Keep it subtle eyeliner but do big, dramatic mascara to achieve that fluttery. For the cheeks, blend a soft pink blush onto the apples and sculpt lightly with a touch of contour along your cheekbones and jawline–it’s all about that effortless definition. Seal the deal with a swipe of pale pink gloss on your lips.

The Classic No Makeup, Makeup
The no-makeup makeup look is the ultimate vacation classic that screams effortless, sun-kissed vibes and Shanaya Kapoor agrees. You can recreate this look by beginning with a radiant, second-skin base that just makes the most of your natural glow. Under the eyes, go for neutral shades of soft brown eyeshadow and a swipe of mascara that gives a subtle definition. That one touch of gold in the inner corner adds just the right amount of sparkle to the look. Frame your features with bold, neatly filled-in brows and finish with a nude lip for that perfectly polished yet understated glam.
