Happy birthday, Daisy Shah! On her special day today, we take a moment to reel it back to 2014, when she made her big Bollywood debut alongside Salman Khan in Jai Ho. Shah’s presence on the silver screen was a pleasant one – we mean, besides her convincing acting chops, the actress made us swoon over her charming beauty looks as well! From then to now, Daisy Shah has left no stone unturned to surprise us time and again with her on-point ‘lit from within’ makeup looks.
So, hop on the fangirl train as we reveal the secret to Daisy Shah’s minimal-glam makeup looks. Drum rolls, please!
Subtle and proud!
Learn the tricks of acing a subtle makeup look from Daisy Shah. Here, she went all soft and matte for her base, brushed some blush on the cheeks, tip of the nose and chin and generously touched highlighter on her high points. Her eyes flaunted a lightly done shimmer pink shadow and as for the lips, she chose a lovely creamy peach shade.
All attention on eyes
Well, we all love some electric eye drama, don’t we? Take lessons from Daisy Shah on how to elevate a minimal look with easy and flattering eye makeup. Start with a matte shine foundation like Lakmé Absolute 3d Cover Foundation and then apply blush on the apples of your cheeks. Slightly dab highlighter on your cheekbones and nose. Next, take the Lakmé 9 To 5 Eye Color Quartet Eye Shadow - Royal Peacock palette and create a smoky blue effect on the eyelids and very lightly brush some blue below the lash line. Finish with your favourite pink lipstick, and voila!
Mellow drama
There’s just no reason to miss out on this look, especially with the festive season approaching us at full speed. Decked up in a boho black and white ensemble, Daisy Shah contrasted it with her fresh-faced makeup. Starting with on-fleek brows, a glowy matte base and flushed cheeks, she swept a thin line of black kajal on her eyes. The final stamp on her minimal-glam look was her choice of nude pink lipstick.
A rosy bouquet
We can’t stop obsessing over Daisy Shah’s femme fatale avatar with a twist of soft glam makeup. You just need a pretty pink lipstick like Lakmé 9 to 5 Weightless Matte Mousse Lip & Cheek Color - Plum Feather to recreate this look. It’ll work equally well for brunch dates, dinner nights and even mid-weekday work looks. After wearing your sunscreen and primer, ditch the heavy-duty foundation with the Lakmé 9 to 5 Naturale CC Cream. Use the pink lippie to colour your cheeks, lids and lips. Highlight your facial features and that’s it. Now wear your high heels and take off for the day with your head held high!
Get the glam, gal!
We’re totally floored with this beauty look of Daisy. With dewy makeup on, she accentuated her cheeks with a heavy dose of blush, went all out with the highlighter and bronzer to contour her face. While loose curls frame her face perfectly, she rounded off her dreamy, glam look with an intense swipe of a pink lipstick like the Lakmé 9 To 5 Primer + Matte Lip Color - Plum Pink.
