Get The Look
“The secret is hydrated skin! Follow the rule of 30. Give your skincare 30 minutes to sink in,” says Namrata.
“Sonakshi has dry skin; to prep her face I used Indulgeo Rose Gold Daily Oil (Rs 1,280) followed byIndulgeo Rejuvenating Eye Serum (Rs 550). Give each product about 15 minutes to sink in and work its magic. I cannot recommend the Indulgeo Rose Gold Oil enough, it is my secret weapon!
I used the Bobbi Brown Corrector – Peach (Rs 2,650) and topped it off with a little bit of concealer from Laura Mercier (Rs 1,900). Sonakshi has beautiful skin, I airbrushed a light layer of foundation to give her skin some coverage and Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze & Glow (Rs 5,371) to highlight and bronze her skin. I smudged a generous amount of the Tom Ford High Definition Eyeliner (Rs 3,000), on both her waterline and eyelids. This is what created that stunning brown smokey eye.
For eyes, I swear by Ardell’s Individual Lashes (Rs 374) and the Shu Uemura lashes (Rs 1,359). I absolutely love the Bobbi Brown No Smudge Mascara (Rs 2,750) you can literally swim in it and it won’t budge! For lips, I used the Bobbi Brown Art Stick (Rs 2,600) in the shade Dusty Pink. I dabbed the lipstick with my fingers to give her lips a lived-in look!” says Namrata.
