Chitrangada has come a long way, from being taken as a serious arty film kind to the Bollywood bombshell. Her sense of styling and makeup has won her accolades. In fact she is the only actress who embraced her dusky colour and chose not to sign any skin fairness creams advertisement deals. Chitrangada knows how to make her dusky complexion stand out and look pretty, she does not believe in coating light coloured foundation to look fair something which 80% bollywood actresses do. We have always admired her style and here are makeup tips for dusk beauties who want to look pretty like Chitangada:

Dusky eyes: The actress knows her eyes are her most beautiful feature and she always does them up perfectly. Chitrangada almost always sports a soft smoky eye look with lots of kohl and mascara. To get eyes like her always use soft brown eyeshadows which make your eyes look seductive without the makeup standing out harshly. Also always makesure your eye makeup blends well. Nothing looks more ghastly than stark black unmixed eyeshadow. Kohl helps brightening the eyes and highlighting them. Masacara is one under rated makeup product by Indian women. But mascara adds a veil to your eyes by lengthening your lashes.

Perfect eyebrows: Chitrangada keeps her eyebrows in perfect shape and filled in to ensure they grab attention towards her eyes. You can do this by getting your brows made and filling them with eyebrow pencil. Using the eyebrow pencil correctly is important, do not use it like a crayon on your brows. Instead use soft strokes much like you would do when sketching. Getting the perfectly filled look takes a bit of time but perfect eyebrows draw attention to your eyes.

Bronzed look: Chitrangada unlike many other B’town actresses embraces and loves her dusky Indian skin. This makes her shun all those light foundation and rosy cheek faux pas. To highlight her cheek bones and strong jaw line, she relies on using a bronzer which makes her skin really glow. This is one important tip for all dusky beauties, do not go for a fake finished look. Embrace your skin colour and instead of those pink blushers invest in a bronzer. A bronzer will give your face a healthy glow and make your cheekbones stand out. Try Lakme Absolute Bronzer it will cost you about 600 INR.

Nude lips: Since Chitrangada loves highlighting her eyes, you will almost always see her keeping her lips nude with a slick of gloss.But the actress doesn’t shy from bold red lips also! So for daytime invest in basic nude shades of brown. The lip colour should come close to your natural lip shade. For evening do not shy away from deep and dark colours reds, maroons and matte deep pink looks great on dusky beauties.

Fringe: We know it’s not makeup, but her fringe really adds an element of mystery to her beautiful eyes. A fringe like hers is perfect to play with. It frames the face and still gives it a soft feminine look. For more tips on fringes and will they suit you click here.
