Tamannaah Bhatia lit up the lids and Janhvi Kapoor channelled romance in this week’s best beauty looks

This week’s lineup spanned the sweet, the sculpted and the slightly theatrical. Tamannaah Bhatia paired rose-tinted lids with a mirrored inner eye, landing somewhere between soft-glam and statement. Janhvi Kapoor had high-shine skin and lashes built for slow-motion blinking. Tabu kept it crisp—berry blush, clean liner, a white flower tucked into her bun like punctuation.

For her walk at Jayanti Reddy’s India Couture Week showcase, Janhvi Kapoor’s beauty look leaned into a kind of bridal romanticism that felt old-school but camera-ready. Her skin was dialled up to a glassy, lit-from-within glow like almond oil befriended an HD highlighter. The lashes were long, curled and carefully fanned, lending her gaze that signature ‘blink and you’ll fall in love’ effect. Paired with glossy pink lips, softly blushed cheeks and wavy hair that framed her face.

Rakul Preet Singh’s makeup looks simple until you realise how precisely it’s been built. The skin is satin-finished but not flat, with just enough dimension to bounce light off the cheekbones. Her eyes are gently sculpted with warm browns and balanced by a smoked lower lash line that adds some drama.

Tamannaah Bhatia leans into tonal play, but it’s the shimmer on the inner corners that makes the look feel fresh, not overly matched or flat. The shadow is dialled up just enough to flirt with drama, while the lips hold their own in a rosewood that complements, not competes.

The hair might be the first thing you notice about Huma Qureshi’s look, but the beauty here is in the control. Skin that looks like it drinks its eight glasses, lashes that flutter without announcing themselves, and a peachy-nude lip with the lightest hint of sheen. She’s not doing too much and it’s working overtime.

For her turn as Rimzim Dadu’s showstopper at India Couture Week, Khushi Kapoor went full Studio 54. Makeup artist Riviera Lynn styled her hair in voluminous side-parted waves, a blown-out cat eye balanced by metallic shadow and neutral lips, keeping the face sultry without being severe.

Tabu does what Tabu does best: makes the case for grace over gimmick. The liner, the berry blush, the neat bun with white roses—this is beauty as character study. Nothing overdrawn, everything in its place. And yet it lingers, like the last scene in a good film.
