Women BD Desk:
Priyanka Chopra Jonas is our #girlcrush considering that she’s conquering the world – producing, acting, philanthropy and also being personal cheerleader to Nick Jonas. If you notice her Instagram feed or her red carpet appearances, PC loves switching things up on the beauty front. She experiments with her hair – with different lengths and hairdos – and switches things up with eye and lip looks. If you want to be more experimental, here are five essential makeup lessons we can all learn from her.
#Never underestimate the power of a great statement red lip
Red lipstick is a classic shade that will never go out of style. PC shows us that a red lipstick is transformative. If you’re not planning on wearing any foundation or want to distract from those under eye circles, a red lipstick is what you really need.
#Step outside your beauty comfort zone
We are used to picking up our staple black kajal or the same shade of nude lipstick, but PC reminds us that when you get out of your comfort zone, great things happen. Take for instance this time she sported an aqua liner, that really made her appearance stand out.
#Glitter is for grown ups too
We’ve always associated glitter with tweens but glitter can be worn by grownups too as demonstrated by Priyanka who wore purple glitter lids for the Royal wedding, her MET Gala appearance, and a silver smokey glitter lid at the post-Oscars Vanity Fair party.
#Upgrade your classics
Always worn a winged eyeliner and consider that your trademark of sorts? Consider revamping that and trying something new – like how Priyanka Chopra tried this reverse winged liner at this year’s Cannes film festival.
#You also have to let your skin breathe
While makeup is extremely fun to wear, you have to remember that taking care of your skin is paramount. Clearer and well-moisturized skin helps with applying less product, and easier application. Makeup removal is also key to keep your skin happy. In fact, in an interview with a leading fashion magazine, PC revealed, “I love a little eyeshadow and a little bit of shimmer but it’s important to keep your skin clean, washed, moisturized.”
