Bollywood Beauty
Posted on 11. Aug, 2009 by in Uncategorized
This summer there’s a touch of the exotic about makeup trends as cosmetic companies take inspiration from Bollywood heroines. Guerlain has introduced Intense Indian Kohl, a super-soft eyeliner inspired by the castor oil and candlewick blend used by classical Indian dancers to emphasise their eyes. Meanwhile, over at Givenchy the limited edition Maharani range oozes Bollywood glamour. Star item is Sari Glow, a gorgeous compact decorated with an Indian bindi that brightens complexions with pink and orange hues inspired by Indian silks.
Look out for L’Oreal beauty campaigns featuring Slumdog Millionaire actress Frieda Pinto. L’Oreal has appointed her as their newest global ambassador, Pinto’s natural beauty epitomising screen glamor while celebrating the diversity of Indian beauty. In the same spirit, Global Goddess (www.globalgoddessbeauty.com) have explored the tradition of Indian head massage with its Coconut Amla Revitalizing Treatment designed to be worked gently into the scalp and hair to promote healthy, shining tresses.
