Aishwarya's Floral Dress and Amazing Makeup at Cannes 2013

Aishwarya's Floral Dress, Armani Gown and Amazing Makeup at Cannes 2013

First let me clarify, no it was not both together :p Well, of course not..


She came in a floral embroidery Abu Jani- Sandeep Khosla gown for the Blood Ties Premiere..paired with a blush colored clutch..is'nt that plain and too blah ?! The dress could have been better if it was not soo heavy..makeup wise same smokey eyes and nude lips..

By the way, if you like her smokey eyes and nude lips..here is the makeup breakdown..L'oreal Paris True Match Foundation, Volume Million Lashes Mascara, Superliner Black Lacquer, True Match Blush in Grapefruit, Color Riche Eyeshadow Palette Velours Noir and Color Riche Matte Mania Lipstick in Silky Toffee..

She definitely came up with better makeup later..for her L'oreal Paris interview..in a black suit with lace detailing on the collar and sleeves and structured pants..she looks chic..and that bold red lips and nails floored us, did'nt it? ;)

For the Cleopatra premiere, she chose a teal Armani Privé gown...paired with fluttery lashes and hot pink lips...I loved the teal color...but not the structure..and the hot pink lips..but whats with that high straight bun ?! A lower bun could have looked so classy and good..

So Ash reached Cannes..and looks pretty good with all the weight she has lost..

For Inside Llewyn Davis premiere, she wore a black Elie Saab Couture gown...and its gorgeous...I love the gown..and her simple makeup..smokey eyes..but not so smokey..and nude lips..and bouncy hair...me likess..

For the 100 years of Indian cinema Gala, she chose a black and gold baroque Sabyasachi couture lehenga-sari...works for her..she looks pretty..I liked that gold hear gear thingie too..

Sinful Orange is a new addition in Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Colors..


Its a short chubby pencil with the matching shade color at the ends..it comes with its own sharpener..It is not like normal lip pencils..which are usually drier..this is more of a lipstick in pencil form..remember the Inglot AMC Lip Pencil..see HERE..those are matte and dry..this is creamy.

These Take Me As I am Lip Color Pencils are just like your moisturising lipsticks..they apply with ease..and are very comfy on lips without any dryness or heaviness..they give a glossy finish..which fades away after some time..but the color stays..it stays for a good 5-6 hours..and leaves behind a stain..

Sinful Orange is a bright yellow based orange...its a true sindoori orange..I cannot carry it fully opaque..I did try HERE, it ended up looking way too bright :/ I feel its quite similar to MAC Morange..and fairer and duskier girls..both extremes would rock this shade..I prefer a single swipe or layering/combining it with other shades..

Here is it on me..a single swipe..

Sonam Kapoor at Cannes 2013

Ok...I know a lot has been written about Sonam already..here I have combined all her outfits at Cannes 2013.

Sonam and Freida are L'oreal Paris Ambassadors and represent L'oreal Paris at Cannes every year..

In a cropped top and Anamika Khanna jacket when she was getting ready..I loved the jacket..and the fresh makeup and soft curls..

On the first day, she wore a Huemn gown and mom Sunita K's signature jewellery line's earrings..styling by sister Rhea Kapoor..fashion runs in the family :p

Yesterday she wore a custom Dolce & Gabbana Alta Moda Couture gown...its ethereal...so princessy..classic..paired with a necklace from her mom Sunita K's line..I loveee it..

At the Opening Gala dinner she chose an Elie Saab couture pink lace and beaded full skirted dress with pink Saab ankle strap pumps and a pink jeweled clutch..matched to her pink lips..too much pink going on here..though I like the dress..I feel she could have broke the monotonous pink somewhere..

At The Great Gatsby screening, she wore Anamika Khanna Couture white lace sari with a long embroidered baroque jacket and completed the look with a huge nath from her mom's line..I love the sari and the jacket..though not a fan of the nath somehow..I know people have loved it..maybe its just me..but actually I cannot imagine it on anyone else :D She is carrying it well rather than anyone else..whats your take on the nath ?

Makeup wise she stole the show..retro winged liner and deep merlot red lips and lot of shimmer..the shimmer on the forehead and face could have been lesser..but I loved the eyes and lips..
