Last evening was all about glitz and glamour. The who’s who of Bollywood came together for the IIFA Awards 2019, bringing their A-game to the green carpet. From Deepika Padukone to Sara Ali Khan, we saw a lot of A-lister Bollywood celebrities looking drop-dead gorgeous.
Dewy makeup and a nude lip seemed to be a common trend last evening. But we did see some B-Town ladies choosing to go creative with their hair and eye makeup. Here are all the hair and makeup looks that left us drooling and are sure to leave you starry-eyed too!
Deepika Padukone
Even though Deepika’s choice of outfit for the award show was uhm... eccentric, we really liked her hair and makeup. While the actress chose to stick with her usual nude makeup, we like the shimmery purple eyeshadow detailing on the outer corner of her eyes. Fluttery lashes a nude lipstick and a slicked-back bun completed her look.
Alia Bhatt
Ethereal, romantic, breath-taking… there are not enough adjectives to define just how lovely Alia looked. The perfectly contoured cheekbones are such a refreshing change from Alia’s usual makeup looks. What absolutely stole our hearts was the messy AF fishtail braid, which was such a welcome change from the perfectly coiffed hairstyles the actress usually sports on the red carpet.
Madhuri Dixit Nene
The ‘Dhak Dhak’ girl of the 90s stole our hearts once again dressed in an off-shoulder red gown. She chose to wear the iconic winged eyeliner with a red lip, making us believe that this stunning combination won’t ever go out of style.
Sara Ali Khan
Sara looked every inch like a divine being in the beautiful white gown. While her makeup was extremely minimal with a dewy base and oodles of highlighter, what truly floored us was her hairdo. The sky-high top knot looked super sexy and perfectly complemented the rest of her outfit.
Radhika Apte
Radhika always floors us with her beauty game and last night she brought a truck load of glamour to the event, wearing a beige ruffled dress and eyes that could talk. We loved the jewel-toned green and copper eye makeup along with a glossy mauve pout. Her hair was tied in a slick, half undone bun.
Katrina Kaif
Katrina sizzled her way through the green carpet event. She wore a shimmery red gown with her statement nude makeup and poker straight hair. While her face makeup was minimal, Katrina opted for burgundy eye makeup that helped take her look a notch higher.
Nushrat Bharucha
Nushrat has been giving us major hair and makeup goals recently, and last night was no different. Dressed in a royal blue ruffled, one-shoulder gown, she looked like a true-blue ‘Dream Girl’. A statement eyeliner, nude pout and sleek hair completed her look.
