6 Experimental Beauty Looks Of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan To Bookmark

Purple Haze

Starting with the most iconic of them all, when the Bachchan bahu rocked the purple lip at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival, she almost broke the internet. While she did become meme material, the look remains iconic and serves as one of the biggest risks the diva has taken and slayed in while sashaying down the runway.

Bold & Beautiful

The mother-of-one who is not new to both, the ramp and the red carpet, pulled off yet another edgy look with a slicked-back hairdo. The Ponniyin Selvan actress pulled her hair up into a tight topknot and a unique headpiece to secure it in place. Bold, kohl-lined eyes and a matte pink lip rounded off this look well.

Golden Girl

The Cannes Film Festival is where Ash takes every opportunity to shine. Strutting down the red carpet in a golden gown, the diva accentuated her look with bold blue eye makeup – a stark contrast against her neutral base and glossy pink lips. Blended-out blue eyeshadow only brought out the intense grey of her eyes!

White Wonder

Playing with her eyes seems like the birthday girl’s favourite kind of makeup. She sported a stark white eyeshadow to match her strapless gown and then lined her eyes with jet-black kohl to make them pop. Beautifully arched brows, brunette locks styled into effortlessly flowing curls, glossy pink lips and rose-tinted cheeks ensured she gave off princess vibes.

Barbie Vibes

Just when we begin to notice a pattern, the Dhoom 2 actress surprises us and throws us off her game. Mrs Bachchan let her eyes take the backseat and sported a bright pink shade of lipstick on her full lips, reminding us of the Barbie pink we were obsessed with. With a cat eye sharp enough to kill a man, shimmery silver shadow on her brow bone, and perfectly styled brows, Aishwarya looked like the epitome of perfection.

Burgundy Bloom

Showing us that she’s still got the edge, the Devdas star took things a step further and dyed the ends of her hair a deep shade of red. She made the burgundy balayage huge and was often seen complimenting her locks with a swipe of red on her lips and go-to cat eyeliner that gave an instant jolt and made one take note of her perfectly accentuated features.
