And now, there’s nothing left to do other than follow her footsteps and let her lead the way to slay that noughties glam right. Smokey eyes and sleek hair are the raging ’00s trends that she’s rocking on the beauty front, and we just have to bookmark it for the next time we wish to glam up for a party. Here’s a breakdown of her Y2K beauty look!
Shanaya Kapoor’s Y2K Glam Makeup Look
Step 1: Perfect Canvas
Prep your skin for makeup by following a CTM routine. Apply a pore blurring primer and then blend a matte foundation on your face and neck. Use concealer on areas that require extra coverage. Set your base by dabbing on setting spray with a makeup sponge and then swipe on a loose powder for an extra mattifying effect.
Step 2: Arch Ally
Make your brows look sharp by grooming them with a brow pencil. First brush the strands upwards and outwards, then fill in the gaps with the pencil, and then brush again to blend in the pigment. Finally, set them with a brow gel for a lifted effect.
Step 3: Smoke Show
Her eyes are classic smokey and we love it. Blend a brown eyeshadow on your lids and then define your lash lines with a black eye pencil. Smudge the eye pencil application with a brush for a smokey effect and then lightly apply the eye pencil once again for definition. Finish with a double coat of mascara on the lashes.
Step 4: Flickering Lights
Her glow game looks phenomenal with that warm highlighted effect. Dab a bronzer on your cheekbones and blend it into your jawline as well. Now, apply a satin finish peachy blush on your cheeks. Complete the glow by blending a gold highlighter on the high points of your face.
Step 5: Bougie Pucker
Exfoliate and moisturise your lips for a smooth pout. Outline your lips with a lip pencil and then swipe on a dusty pink shade of lipstick for an expensive looking pout.
Shanaya Kapoor’s ’90s Hairstyle Notes
On the hair front, Shanaya is making this classic updo totally alluring. She wears a high top bun with face framing tendrils to complete her Y2K beauty appeal. To slay this hair trend, wash your hair with a smoothening shampoo and conditioner and then apply a serum to the damp lengths. Blow dry the hair smooth and then set it up in a high ponytail with an elastic band. Twist the ponytail into a bun by wrapping it around the elastic band. Secure with bobby pins and you’re all set.
Don’t be shy, go on try this sultry noughties hair and makeup look. These classic trends are oh-so iconic and don’t seem to be fading out of style anytime soon!
