Gauri Khan’s Makeup On Koffee With Karan Was Pure Monochromatic Magic

Remember how Maheep, Bhavna, Seema, and Neelam reacted to Gauri Khan sashaying down the halls of her house in the second season of Fabulous Lives Of Bollywood Wives? Clad in a power-suit, and prepping for a shoot with the ladies, she set the sets ablaze. I recall Maheep saying, “When I say she’s a queen, I’m not saying it frivolously.” Truer words haven’t been spoken. Gauri extends this status to her makeup as well — as evidenced by her high-shine, boss-babe look on Koffee With Karan. BRB, gotta re-watch the episode. Until then — a step-by-step breakdown of her beauty look.

Understated Yet Statement Making — That’s Gauri Khan For You

#1: Glaze The Base

This look is dewy and luminous. To capture the aesthetic, laying the groundwork is important. Prep with skincare — double-cleanse your face, and rehydrate your skin with a moisturiser. You can mix your foundation with a little more moisturiser to further play into the dewiness of the look. Go over patches and pigmentation with some concealer; but don’t overload the skin with too much product. Minimal is the way to go.

#2: Pep Up The Peppers

Prime the eyes, and set the base with a brown shade. Drench your brows in dollops of mascara. You can opt for a set of falsies too for some snazz.

#3: Brush The Brows

Brush your brows sideways with a spoolie, and accentuate the arch of the brow with an eyebrow-pencil. Notice how Gauri’s brows are lifted and defined. Go on to fill the brows in, and tame the hair with an eyebrow-gel.

#4: Light It Up

This look isn’t as focused on blush as it is on highlighter. Douse your cheeks in a warm-toned brown, and layer it up with a liquid-based highlighter. Highlight the temples, jawline, nose, and cupid’s bow while you’re at it.
