I confess, I'm a huge fan of getting inspiration from celebrity looks and try to make the look my own. Granted, I might know little to absolutely nothing, and by this I mean the great empty abyss that is my knolesge of desi celebs, but I would like to highlight some great make-up and cast the dreaded horror of the lowlight to some not so succesful looks.

Lowlight: Kareena Kapoor

I can hear the protests already that this is a natural picture of her where she's wearing natural make-up. I am all for natural, all for it. I won't forcibly have two bulky, overly muscular men who have made a notorious career of full-contact boxing but secretly write poetry about their feelings when they crush their opponents spleen hold you down so that I can blend seven colours of eyeshadow (this includes brow highligt) on your virgin eyelids. I promise. However, when you try to look natural, try blending the lipliner. In fact, whoever thought that unblended lipliner that provides a clear demarcation of the lips and never bothered to blend it with lipstick should be held down by the poetry-writing streoid-injecting boxers. And as for the hair, the braassiness does her no favours either. I am fairly certain such brassiness is not found naturally in nature either. So in short Kareena Kapoor has given enough reason to be our Lowlight.

Highlight: Preity Zinta

See this is how you do natural make-up. Granted her eyes are heavier than Kareena's but it's not over the top and you can even tone it down if you want to. The make-up is so pretty that the roots fade away. I'm actually kind of laid back about things like rootss but i believe if you're going for a look, do it well. And this look is done so well it has me hoping I can find similar lipstick for my complection. See? There was no need for me to threaten her with the infamous boxers. And did i mention i loved the cheeks?? So pretty and glowy!
