'Did Ash kiss a smurf': Twitter mocks Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's purple lipstick at Cannes 2016

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan caused a minor flutter at Cannes with her lipstick choice which to the naked eye looks purple or something similar to the base colour of the Rising Pune Supergiants jersey. A little research suggests that the lipstick is called Deep Fuchsia, which is named after a flower.

Here check out the pics: 

Twitter was amused with Aishwarya’s lipstick choice, which drew comparisons with Joey Tribbiani’s Lipstick for Men ad from Friends.

Here are some of the best Tweets about her lipstick choice: 

Urban rich: Aishwarya's lips look like she had black current ice cream.

Urban poor: Aishwarya's lips look like she had kala khatta gola.

Earlier, she wore a gold lace Elie Saab number with an embellished bodice. The 42-year-old actress accessorised her look with diamond open-ended neck piece, rings and side swept hair. She was also captured striking a pose with Hollywood actress Blake Lively.

For her first appearance at the ongoing festival, the actress opted for a studded champagne coloured couture gown by Kuwait's designer Ali Younes. Aishwarya experimented with a metallic sheath overlaid by a sparkly floor-length cape. She wore her hair in loose waves.

For her second outing, the actress wore a red Naeem Khan gown. Aishwarya is celebrating 15 years of representing India and L'Oreal at the French Riviera.
