Make-up Trend: Indigo Smokey Eyes


To give your eyes a puff of navy smoke like Riya Sen here, start by tracing black pencil along the lashlines. Then sweep deep blue powder shadow across each lid and crease using a small, stiff shadow brush. Apply color upward and outward and below the eye, which you can smudge for added smokiness.

To prevent color from fading, prep lids with an eye primer before adding shadow.

Make-up Trend: Browbone Highlighter


Add some oomph to your brows by taking a cue from Celina Jaitley. Sweep pale eye shadow along the base of your eyebrows, from the arch to the end, to brighten the whites of your eyes, add crispness to the line of your brows and highlight your bone structure.

If the rest of your makeup is shimmery, opt for a pale white with a hint of gold eyeshadow along your browbones.
