Amrita Arora

Actor Amrita Arora gives you tips on how to look natural.

An absolute make-up must-have:
Kajal! I use the Revlon kohl pencil.

My favourite beauty treatment:
Sleep!

My best feature and how I highlight it:
My eyes! I use L’Oreal Double Extend Mascara to accentuate them.

My worst feature and how I camouflage it:
My round face… Actually it’s not that bad, but I have to do a bit of contouring to underplay my cheeks.

Make-up by day:
Minimal! Moisturiser, a bit of transparent mascara, strawberry gloss and a bit of cheek tint.

Make-up for night:
More kohl in the eyes, a MAC rose blusher and strawberry lip gloss, as I am not into strong colours.

My skin loves:
Pampering and moisturising!

A make-up blooper and how I coped with it:
For the song I filmed for ‘Rakth’. I had a blue outfit and we used blue eye make-up. It was a total disaster and my face ended up looking like a blue ball. The only thing I cando is change the channel each time it’s aired!

Beauty rituals:
I always tone and moisturize my body.

10 minutes to go on a special date, your style funda would be:
Less is more, so I would like to keep it simple. Nice rose-pink gloss for the plump look, a little bit of blush, mascara and the finishing touches with kohl and I’m set to go!

Fitness mantra:
A healthy mind.

Energy boosters:
Music and a blissful body or foot massage.

__+//What does Amrita Arora do to stay beautiful?

I am not very fond of make-up. But if I use I am very particular about the brands. I draw on mascara by Estee Lauder, kajal by Revlon and fruity lipgloss and cheek tint from MAC. They suit my skin tone and are very soft on sensitive skin.

DIET DICTATES:
I drink lots of water and green tea throughout the day.

FITNESS MODE:
I have a personal trainer Yasmin who looks after my fitness regime.

BEAUTY BEACON:
I use a moisturizer and an oxygen and water-based cream. Other than that, I use a face pack of aloe vera.
