O-M-G obsessed! During Sonakshi Sinha‘s brother, Kush Sinha‘s wedding, my Instagram feed was filled with pictures of Sonakshi, her friends, the functions, and more. If you haven’t seen all of them, check this out. Since we’re bang in the middle of wedding season and I’ve been recreating super easy makeup looks for your best friend’s wedding, I thought, why not take a shot at recreating Sonakshi’s fresh and femme makeup. Turns out, it’s really subtle and easy.
Key tip to remember: let the eyeliner do the talking.
1) The Base
If you’re judging how I look without makeup, save it. I’m human. I have dark circles, so big whoop. Moving on, try using an orange/yellow based concealer that is just the slightest shade darker than your natural skin tone. Use it to cover under eye circles and pigmentation. Remember to blend in one direction, preferably sideways or downwards.
2) The Slightest Bit Of Contour
Use a flat, angled brush and work a matte bronzer from under your cheekbones nearing your lips. Try following your natural line. Rub some on the temples of your forehead as well, especially if you’re wearing your hair back like Sonakshi’s.
3) Blush
Add a baby pink blush to the apples of your cheek and work upwards in the space between the ridge of your cheekbones and your contour.
4) The Eyeshadow
I used my fingers to apply a bronze shade all over my lids and a blending brush to work a light, matte brown into my crease. Use an angled brush dipped in the same matte brown and work some eyeshadow into your brows. Go for an arched shape at the end. Have you seen Sonakshi’s brows? I’m jealous.
5) Eyeliner & Lashes
This look is all about the winged eyeliner and Sonakshi’s gorgeous, lustrous lashes! Draw a thicker, visible line of eyeliner on your lids and then pull it outwards at the end. Don’t extend the line upwards as much as possible. This look goes more out on the sides. Finish off by going ham on your lashes! Use a brush that doesn’t clump because that’ll take away from the clean look of Sonakshi’s lashes.
6) The Lips
Opt for a baby pink or natural pink on your lips, depending on your preference. Here’s a list of amazing MAC lipsticks for the wedding season that you can choose from.
All done! Try the look this wedding season and send us pictures.
