If I've learnt anything this year, it's that we're incredibly conscious of what we're putting on our faces. We've gone from unapproachable beauty to bold yet understandably convenient practices – velvet skin, practical ultra short bobs, braids that are unapologetically creative, all while the focal point of every beauty look is (drumroll please) the eyes. In simple words, beauty this season is all about an escape from the humdrum of life. Whether it was Ananya Panday for Anamika Khanna at the opening show, Tamannaah Bhatia for Falguni Shane Peacock on day three, or Janhvi Kapoor for AFEW Rahul Mishra on day four – from the showstoppers to the models, each one aced their beauty looks. Here are the major runway beauty trends that will dominate this season. We don't believe these beauty trends are supposed to be confined to the frenzy of a fashion show. Taking cues from what hair and makeup experts displayed at every fashion show, we've dismantled the most wearable beauty trends from Lakme Fashion Week 2025.
