A talented actress and singer who introduced the concept of ‘going viral’ in the country (remember Kolaveri Di?), Shruti Haasan turns 35 today! The leggy beauty is more than just a striking presence on screen, her off-screen glam game also happens to be on-point every single time. A lover of bold lips and soft eyes, Shruti’s makeup looks have been creative and dynamic. So, on her birthday today, we are taking your through our top five beauty looks from the actress. Check them out...
01. Softy blushed

When it comes to soft glam looks, we have rarely seen anyone match Shurti’s game in the business. A flawless base (that looks like it’s been airbrushed), paired with perfect placement of blush tones on the lips, lids and cheeks helps create this sensual look. We are definitely saving this look to wear with all of our pastel ensembles.
BB picks: Lakmé Absolute Infinity Eye Shadow Palette - Pink Paradise
02. Saree glam

Shruti can rock a saree and how! We love the makeup look that she chose to pair with this sultry sheer drape — it is so glamorous. Wine lips paired with tightlined eyes, inner corner highlight and well-defined brows make this one a winner. We are also loving the perfect contour job done with this makeup look, it matches the intensity of a bold black saree.
BB picks: Lakmé Cushion Matte - Burgundy Bloom
03. Bronzed glow

Another makeup look you can choose for an ethnic ensemble is this bronzed out and dewy makeup look, which is perfect to pair with heavy lehengas. We love how the shimmer is focused on the eyes and nose, while the rest of the base is kept matte. The thick faux lashes add more drama to this ultra-glam look.
BB picks: Lakmé Absolute Illuminating Shimmer Brick
04. Day time smoke

Like we mentioned before, Shruti is a big fan of soft eyes and one of her tricks to create one is to smoke out silver and grey kohls on the lids and sweep on an earthy colour on the lower lash line. We love this idea of creating a softer, more toned down smokey eye because there are fewer chances of looking like a racoon if you go wrong with the blending!
BB picks: Lakmé Absolute Kohl Ultimate - Silver Slate
05. Misty mauve

A perfectly matte complexion, blush draped from the cheeks to the lids and a mauve lip — this white ivory ensemble could not have asked for a better makeup look! A swipe of silver eyeshadow on the lid and highlighted T-zone gives the makeup look a mysterious and dreamy feel.
