Janhvi Kapoor goes classic with kohl and Samantha Ruth Prabhu picks a glossy nude lip in this week’s best beauty looks

This week’s best beauty lineup served two distinct energies: the richness of tradition and sleek minimalism. Across weddings and promotions, skin stayed plush and lit from within, eyes were sculpted and bronzer took centre stage.

Janhvi Kapoor’s ensemble was a love letter to Indian craft. Her beauty look paired a luminous, softly bronzed base that caught light without being overly dewy, while the shades of pink from her outfit extended to her eyes with fine shimmer along the lash line. Fanned out lashes and boldly kohl-rimmed eyes brought out the best of her features.

Ananya Panday’s OTT glow is the perfect way to make a statement. With slicked-back hair braided neatly down the back and brushed-up brows, her look centred on glassy skin and subtle contouring. The gleam across her collarbones and temples is clearly the star of this show.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu chose precision with a sharp, bronzed look. Her sculpted waves framed a flawless satin base with brown tones brushing the lids and beige, barely-there glossy lips.

Rakul Preet Singh’s hair, styled in soft waves, fell fluidly around a flawless base, just enough blush to add an understated glow and MLBB lips. The pared-back blush and brushed brows worked in tandem to give her that “expensive-skin” finish.

Banita Sandhu gave us a sneak peek into her everyday makeup that consists of close to no base and brown winged eyeliner. A hint of sun-kissed blush blurred into a petal-pink lip, complemented by natural henna and nude nails on her hand. It’s a moment that feels lived-in rather than constructed.

Bhumi Pednekkar, on the other hand, leaned fully into drama. Her embellished lehenga met its match in tonal eyeshadow, sculpted cheeks and a berry-toned matte lip. The slick hair drew focus to the structure of her makeup: rich and beautifully composed.
