Kajol brought dewy skin and Ananya Panday made a case for smokey eyeliner in this week’s best beauty looks

Call off the endless scrolling for holiday beauty inspiration. This week’s best beauty looks have already built your moodboard for you. Soft-focus skin, sneaky hits of colour and well-behaved hair all come together to give you the perfect glam moment. Whether you’re hoarding screenshots for wedding season, plotting a night out or have a million holiday parties to attend, these are the looks to save.

What’s impressive is how every look stays true to the wearer; Sobhita Dhulipala’s tones that enhance, Kajol’s look that catches the light perfectly and Taapsee Pannu’s bold experimentation. If your routine feels stuck on repeat, take this as your cue to tweak the script: deepen a shadow, switch your finish, trade your lipstick for a glassier gloss. It only takes one adjustment to change the entire mood.

Ananya Pandey‘s base is smooth and lightly set, giving just enough coverage without hiding texture. The eyes carry a soft wash of shimmer with a subtle smoky lash line, right through the outer corner. A super natural MLBB lipstick keeps the look balanced, while the loose, glossy waves make everything feel relaxed and put together.

Sobhita Dhulipala’s thick, exaggerated wing and kohl, along with sharply defined brows create drama and depth without looking too harsh. Her skin has a warm, barely-there wash of coverage that makes it look au naturel. The understated lip and subtle blush let the eye makeup lead, while her undone hair keeps the look laid-back.

Taapsee Pannu’s espresso-lined lips are the moment. Filled in with a nude beige shade, her take on the trend mirrors her personality perfectly. Cheekbones are defined with controlled, well-blended contouring. A neat winged liner adds detail without pulling focus from the overall look.

Kajol’s look builds from her signature dewy skin, with bronzy lids and eyeliner concentrated on the outer half, so her eyes catch the light. The lashes are fluttery and weightless, adding depth without the heaviness. An apricot-nude lip echoes the warmth across her face, while polished waves in her hair keep the look relaxed, but unmistakably red carpet.

Rashmika Mandanna’s look is as classic Indian as it gets: fresh, even skin, softly groomed brows and a hint of peach on the cheeks. Traditional kohl and straightforward liner define the eyes, while a nude gloss adds a little shine to the lips. Worn with loose hair and a bindi, the whole look feels like the most effortless version of festive glamour.

Sanya Malhotra’s look leans towards modern Indian glam. Satiny skin with a soft pink flush lifts the face. The eyes are defined with crisp, brushed-out liner and full lashes, balanced by a muted pink lip and structured brows. Her hair is pulled back neatly into a bun and adorned with an oversized scrunchie.
