There’s just something about this power couple that is so magnetic, we can’t take our eyes off them. That being said, while Ranveer Singh may be one of the most fashionable men in Bollywood, Deepika Padukone is a true beauty queen in that respect. Just take a look at the edgy hair and makeup the 36-year-old leading lady rocked as she and her Bajirao Mastani co-star played showstopper for Manish Malhotra’s Mijwan Fashion Show 2022. The couple looked regal in Indian couture attire but what caught out eye was the Pathaan actress’ hair and makeup. We loved that voluminous wispy hairstyle with the boldest smokey eye we’ve seen in a while. Deepika looked runway ready and like an absolute queen.
Ahead, a step-by-step breakdown of how to achieve her flawless yet edgy runway look.
Deepika Padukone’s Edgy Couture Makeup
Step 1: Touch Base
When going in for a bold makeup look, ensure your base makeup game is strong AF. Double cleanse, tone, apply serum, and then moisturise your skin. Swipe on a makeup primer to prep it for foundation. Apply a full coverage foundation on your face and neck. Follow up with concealer on areas that require extra coverage. Set your base by dabbing on a setting spray with a makeup sponge.
Step 2: Feathered Feature
Runway brows usually feature a feathered effect because it is just naturally dramatic. DP is known for her busy and statement brows. To cop her look, brush up your brows with a spoolie and then apply a clear brow gel to get that feathered effect. Flatten the strands with the other end of your brush to achieve a laminated effect. Go in with a brow pen wherever there are gaps.
Step 3: Black Diamond
Always apply an eye primer on your lids when your eye makeup look is going to be this bold. Once done, blend a chocolate brown eyeshadow all over your lids and above the creases. Next, swipe on a metallic gold or bronze eyeshadow all over the lids. Apply black kajal on the upper and lower lash lines and smudge it for a smokey effect like the Gehraiyaan star. Reapply black eyeliner but this time make the wings super bold and dramatic. Swipe on two coats of mascara to complete the eye makeup look.
Step 4: Chiselled Sculpture
Deepika’s skin is always glowing with a sun-kissed effect. To get that effect, apply a bronzer along your hairline, jawline, and on your cheekbones. Now, blend a cream blush on your cheeks and the bridge of your nose. For a celebrity-like glow up, apply highlighter on the high points of your face.
Step 5: Nude Glaze
For the lips, scrub and moisturise them so that they are smooth and plump. Define your lip shape with a brown lip liner and then swipe on a nude lipstick. Add some gloss to your lip and voila, you makeup is complete.
Deepika Padukone’s Wispy & Voluminous Hairstyle
We are complete fans of this full-bodied wispy hair look that the Tamasha star flaunted. Her bob haircut looks edgy with a unique texture that we never thought could work so well. Wash your hair with a volume boosting shampoo and mask and then apply a heat protectant product to your dampen your locks. Blow dry it till smooth. Spray some dry shampoo on your roots and work it in to build that gorgeous volume. Use a flat iron on chunky sections of your hair for added texture. Apply a leave-in conditioner cream at the ends to complete the look.
The steps are easy and the results are unimaginably striking. Try Deepika’s hair and makeup on yourself whenever you need to glam up for a formal event or even to give a basic look an added edge.
