The Best Beauty Trends 2016 from India Couture Week

Hair Looks

Anita Dongre has really given some major beauty looks to follow this year. If your a bride that doesn’t believe in conventions and likes to be different, go for boxer braids on your wedding day making you look edgy and quirky. It will keep your hair in place perfectly and your maangtika or mathapatti too.

The models for Varun Bahl fit perfectly with the vintage garden theme of this years collection. The flower crown has been quite popular this year and this is just another approach to it in a jewellery form. The models walked the ramp wearing these bejewelled headbands with precious jewels adding that touch of sparkle.

Eye Looks

Gaurav Gupta definitely made a statement, not just with his clothes and his collaboration with Swarovski but also with his makeup look. His models had dramatic lashes and everyone loves lush and full lashes which complimented his clothes beautifully. On the other hand we saw Anamika Khanna’s models having that delicate and elegant look going far away from the classic smoky eyes to soft pale glittering eyes.

For Manav Gangwani’s Mughal themed show his models had a very rich look with royal lips and a little twist to the black smoky eye, instead they were beautiful blue-grey eyes. If you love experimenting with your eyeliner then Manish Malhotra has given a new look to work with. This will definitely be in one of the popular beauty trends 2016 this year, the reverse cate eye look.

Face Looks

Anita Dongre had the boho theme screaming on the runway and we have seen a lot of face sculpting and contouring but how about this new look, colour contouring? This tribal-chic makeup was such a fun and quirky look where they models cheekbones were highlighted in pink and orange. It was then highlighted further with the similar colour on the lower lids of the eyes.

Designers like Tarun Tahiliani and Rahul Mishra kept their runway looks very minimal and simple this year for their beauty trends 2016. They sure worked on the perfect face contouring as well as giving a nice neutral-toned look without any colour on the face.
