Make-up Trend: Bronzy, Luminous Skin

On the latest issue of Harper's Bazaar India, Lara Dutta shows us that you don't have to look like a porcelain doll to have glowy, reflective skin. Smooth a few drops of liquid foundation over your entire face in a shade one touch darker than your natural skin tone, then top the look off with a slighty shimmery translucent powder. The effect has plenty of color and plenty of light.

Make-up Trend: Sheer Violet Shadow and Plum Lips

Usually I don't like match your eyeshadow to your clothes, but Isha Koppikar changed that make-up no no in a second. She wore a gorgeous Neeta Lulla lehnga—and had coordinating shadow and lips. To try violet colored lids, choose a shimmery formula and apply with your fingertips—the oil from you hands will keep it looking sheer, not heavy. To compliment the lips apply a plummish-brown stain with a coordinating lip gloss.
