A stunner in every sense of the word, Rakul rocks this minimal makeup look here. With a matte base, she has kept her overall makeup soft and natural with her glossy brown lip colour and the nude eye makeup. We believe this look is perfect for all you lovelies who love light makeup but still want to make a statement.

Flirty with a hint of grace, that’s how we’d like to describe this look by Rakul *heart eyes*. To get this look, go for a matte foundation and blend it well with a damp beauty sponge. Once your base sets, sweep some golden and pink eye shadow on your lids, before applying 2-3 coats of mascara on your lashes. For your lips, go for a nice mauve colour and you’re ready to roll!

Yeah, we’ll give you a moment to take in this stunning beauty! Right from the flowing messy hair to the fabulous eye makeup, everything about this look makes us fall in love with this diva all over again. Rakul has chosen earthy, warm colours, instead of loud, dark ones for this bold look and we’re totally crushin’ over it! This look is amazing for your weekend parties with your BFFs, so bookmark it for later!

04. Hot mess

With perfectly shaped brows and chiseled cheeks, Rakul looks like a hot mess here, in the best way possible! For this look, after applying your base makeup, sweep some bronzer across the apple of your cheeks and all the high points of your face. For your eyes, go for a subtle smokey look and for finishing touches, glide some caramel brown lip colour to your lips and you’re good to go!

05. Always with a smile

We love that big, beautiful smile! And we also love the natural, no-makeup makeup looks that Rakul sports here. To try out this look, instead of your regular foundation, opt for a CC cream or tinted moisturiser to give your face a natural finish. Also, make sure you go with light pinks or nude lip colours for this one to ace that no-makeup makeup look.
