With some of the biggest names from the fashion industry showcasing their talents and giving our thirsty eyes something to feast on, the Lakmé Fashion Week 2021 ended last night with a bang! And since one of India’s biggest fashion weeks happened to be during the festive season, we decided to take some makeup cues from the ramp to amp up our looks. So, without any further ados, scroll and check out the five most amazing makeup looks we spotted at the Lakmé Fashion Week 2021 last week that we believe are perfect for this festive season.
01. Dewy goddess
Right from the orchid gajra to the red bindi - this look by Taapsee Pannu from Gaurang Shah’s ‘Chaand’ screams festive-perfect to us! To ace this minimal, dewy look, you need to keep your base makeup natural. Make sure you highlight the apple of your cheeks and all the high points of your face well to get that gorgeous dewy look like Taapsee. Keep your eye makeup basic with a thin eyeliner and oodles of mascara and you’re ready to roll!

02. Elegance redefined
From the perfectly chiseled cheekbones to those stunning smokey eyes - this look is a total winner for this festive season! For this look, you’d need to contour your face to make your cheeks appear sharp and beautiful. Coming to your eyes, go for an intense smokey look to highlight them. Lastly, opt for a nice nude lip colour to bring together the whole look.

03. Beauty and grace
With sparkle in her eyes and perfectly rosy cheeks, Malaika Arora looks like a vision here! Walking the ramp for Annu’s Creation, Malaika looks absolutely stunning in this avatar. If you wish to shine like a star this festive season, then we say you steal this look from the ramp for yourself. Keep your base makeup matte and sweep some blush across your cheeks. For your eyes, shape and fill your eyebrows and choose a sparkly eyeshadow to cover your lids. Lastly, glide some nude matte lipstick and you’re ready to party!

04. Get glowing
Glowing is the way to ace this festive season and that’s why we are lovin’ this look from the Lakmé Fashion Week 2021. To replicate this look, start by applying a nice matte foundation on your face and neck and blend it well. Next, add some highlighter to your cheeks to get that festive glow. Then use your eyebrow pencil to shape your brows to appear natural and bushy.

05. Mesmerising belle
Matte and glamorous, this mesmerising look by Diana Penty at Aisha Rao’s show is all things beautiful for this festive season. To replicate this look, keep your base makeup matte and then sweep some blush across the apple of your cheeks to add some colour to your face. Once your base sets in, work on those intense smokey eyes to bring out your eyes. Don’t forget to add mascara to your lashes and you’re ready to slay.
