Your go-to beauty look for a red carpet event
My go-to beauty look for a red carpet event is dramatic eye make-up with a touch of blush and nude lips.

What do you think is sexy, beauty-wise?
For me, eyes can do all the talking and I believe that accentuating your eyes is the sexiest thing.

Who were your idols growing up?
My mother and my sister.

What product do you turn to for a beauty boost?
It has always been the Lakmé Eyeconic kajal for me. This season, the Pearl Eye Shadow is my personal favourite from the new collection — Absolute Illusion. It has the power to transform your look with just a swipe.

Do you gravitate toward a lip colour and if so, which shade?
Red is my favourite.

Do you switch up your make-up based on your hair colour?
I think that your hair and make-up need to complement each other. Thus it is important to choose the shades of your eye and lip colours accordingly.

What’s your favourite beauty moment?
My favourite beauty moment is when I sport a simple kajal look on non-shooting days.

Are you good at applying your own make-up?
Yes, I do enjoy applying my own make-up which is minimalistic.

Have you ever had any beauty disasters?
Fortunately, I have been blessed with good skin and have not had any beauty disasters!

What’s your ultimate beauty tip?
Accentuate your eyes for they are your strongest assets.

What’s the best beauty advice you’ve ever received?
One beauty advice I would like to share is that one should always treat the eye region gently since it is the most delicate part of the face. So avoid rubbing, simply cleanse with care or blot.

How important is the LFW finale for you as brand ambassador Lakmé Absolute?
The Lakmé Fashion Week Grand Finale is more than a fashion display. It is a platform that sets the trend for the season. The finale theme of PopTints showcased vibrantly last year remained the biggest trend the industry had witnessed. Since every season has a trend story to tell, it is the finale that brings it out in the most elaborate way.
