Whether it is on a billboard or inside a magazine, there isn’t a surface without a celebrity on it. From the brands they are endorsing to the clothes they are wearing, they are all we talk about. So besides God-given genes and tremendous amounts of water, how do theymange to look so good every single time? Turns out, behind every flawless face there’s a makeup artist who can consistently weave magic. Which is precisely why we consider ourselves extremely lucky to be in the presence of one such magician, professional makeup artist Donald Simrock,who has graced this Fashion Week.

Donald has worked on some of the hottest faces in Hollywood from Paris Hilton to Lady Gaga and has gone on to build (or should we say apply) the foundation of their very celebrity image. His previous trip to this city was on account of a makeup academy that actually helped him shape his very own career. Before we cast our eyes on his masterpieces at Lakmé Fashion Week, let’s take a look at some of his best celebrity looks so far.
