Kajol and Priyanka Chopra Jonas let nude lips lead this week’s best beauty looks

This week’s beauty memo seems to have been ‘barely there’. Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Sara Ali Khan, Kajol, all showed up in various shades of minimal with dewy skin, nude lips and no dramatic winged eye liner in sight. Even Shruti Haasan, whose outfit leaned rock-chick glam, paired it with lids glazed in taupe and glossy lips. But it wasn’t about effortlessness. It was about editing. The kind of makeup that doesn’t shout, just sits there looking expensive.

Everything about the beauty look on Priyanka Chopra Jonas is measured. Her skin catches the light at just the right points—cheekbones, brow bone, bridge—without slipping into full-glam reflectivity. The eyes are softly defined, with a brushed-on bronze shadow that meets a flutter of lashes and slightly smoked waterline. Her eyes carried a gentle bronze haze with smudged liner and thick lashes, grounded by a lush, nude lip with a mirror-like sheen.

Kajol’s signature kajal made a return, this time hugged close to the lash line and paired with lashes that lifted the gaze. Her complexion glowed with a real-skin finish–not flat, not greasy, but alive. A rosey nude lip brought it together, echoing the warmth in her cheeks and the glint of her earrings. The tiny bindi added the closing note.

Sara Ali Khan opted for a barely-there beat that let her skin do most of the talking. A muted nude lip with mauve-pink undertones grounded the look, paired with softly defined lashes and just enough blush to keep things lifted. The overall effect was composed, like the makeup equivalent of an exhale.

Shruti Haasan’s version of minimal makeup came with a wink. A glazed nude lip and burnished shadow kept the palette subdued, but the effect was anything but dull. The softly contoured eyes, fluttery lashes, and lit-from-within skin played contrast to her jet-black manicure and industrial accessories—like a glam spell cast under a full moon, equal parts ethereal and edge.

Fatima Sana Shaikh wore a classic no-makeup base and neatly filled brows let a single detail steal the spotlight: a pop of fuchsia shadow tucked into the inner corners of the eyes. The rest of the makeup stayed understated—light mascara, soft-matte skin, and a muted pink lipstick—making the flash of colour feel unexpected, playful and editorial without overdoing it.
