If you are the kind of person who likes to emphasise their eyes with makeup, Deepika Padukone is the ideal beauty muse to look up to. Her bold brows have been statement-making for years. And if you hadn’t already noticed, she often likes to pair them with a classic winged liner- a timeless makeup duo.
For the promotional event of 83, Deepika added a little something extra to her signature look by using an iridescent green shade on her lids for a dramatic effect. Deepika’s eyes were further framed with voluminous lashes which complimented soft, sculpted cheeks and a nude lip. And her matching headscarf added that much more ‘90s flair. Breaking the rules and trying something new has never looked this good. While green eyeshadow may sound terrifying, but this is a look that will make you stand out for all the right reasons, and is actually tremendously flattering. It’s that time of the year again when Christmas and NYE invites are likely pouring in, and this gorgeous beauty look is a fun and exciting way to mark the season. Feeling inspired? We share with you the golden rules for going green this season.
And Just Like That, We Are In Love With Deepika’s Beauty Look All Over Again
Step 1: Glowing Skin Is In!
Begin by creating a luminous base. Prep the skin with a rich moisturiser and buff a radiant-finish foundation all over with a damp sponge. You could also mix a few drops of priming oil to your foundation for added glow. Pat and blend a creamy concealer under the eyes and anywhere else you need coverage. Press a setting powder along the T-zone to keep excess shine at bay.
Step 2: For A+ Arches
To create Deepika’s bold brows, begin by brushing your hair with a spoolie. Then, use a powder with a small angled brush to fill any gaps – apply the lighter shade in the inner third of the eyebrow and the darker one for the rest, taking care to define the arches and ends of the brows.
Step 3: Green Eyes, Hypnotise
If you’re exacting, enhance your eyes with a couple of light brown contact lenses. Prime your eyelids with primer to set the rest of the eye makeup products up for success. Next, apply a wash of iridescent emerald green shadow across the eyelids. Pick a formula of eyeliner that works for you. A felt tip liner is perfect to create subtle kitten flicks and sharp wings. Follow your natural lash line as you paint them on, making sure the line is thinnest in the inner corners and gets thicker as it goes along. Use a kohl liner to tight line your eyes and fill any gaps close to the roots of your lashes.
Step 4: The Secret For Stunning Eyes
Complete the look by applying some mascara to the upper and lower lash line. To make them look extra fluttery, you can also stick on a few short individual lashes in the center and outer corners of the eyes.
Step 5: Contouring That’ll Look Good IRL Too
Take a cool-toned brown powder and use an angled brush to contour your face. Apply it along the hollows under your cheekbones, then flip the brush over and use the clean side to blend away the harsh edges to ace a modern-looking contour.
Step 6: Bring On The Glow!
Blend a pink liquid blush on the apple of your cheeks, directed towards your temples. Then, use a highlighter on the high points of your face.
Step 7: A Nude We Love!
To ace the look, all you need is this nude lipstick and liner duo to complete the makeup look.
