Aishwarya & Sonam at Cannes 2016: Outfits & Makeup

Aishwarya & Sonam at Cannes 2016: Outfits & Makeup

Hey guys,

You all must have seen 100’s of pictures of both Aishwarya Rai and Sonam Kapoor from the Cannes Film Festival 2016. It’s the 15th year Aishwarya Rai was present at Cannes and she was there for all four days while Sonam Kapoor joined later for 2 days. Katrina Kaif was not present at Cannes this year due to her shoot commitments.

You must have seen the Infallible Range Makeup Collection launch for Cannes 2016 HERE, where I also reviewed & swatched the lip glosses.

Aishwarya Rai

Aishwarya’s first look on the red carpet was a Ali Younes Couture golden gown, which she paired with smokey blue eyes and glossy nude lips. The dress was ok, the cape was not flattering and something was not right with the fit around her waist.

She wore a red ruffled gown from Naeem Khan with bold red lips.

Later she donned a Rohit Bal gold and brown ensemble for the Sarabjit screening. She paired it with smokey eyes and nude lips, like the makeup, the dress is quite ok.

The Elie Saab gown was the showstopper! Bold red lips and a winged eyeliner, soft wavy hair, she looked ethereal. The bold lips were achieved using a mix of shades from the L’Oreal Paris LA Lip Palette, I hope they launch it in India soon!

Her last look was a blush pink floral Rami Kadi bardot dress and brown smokey eyes with super bright and bold lilac lips with her hair tied slick back! While I did like the dress, I don’t like the lips at all! Pastel lilac is not her colour, she is fair with green eyes and pastel lilacs will just wash her out, a beautiful deep purple like MAC Recollection or something like that would have looked gorgeous on her!

Sonam Kapoor

Sonam’s first appearance was in Rimzim Dadu black and blue sari. She went with a blue liner, pink cheeks,fuchsia lips and a sleek low bun. I loved the earrings and harness behind! The makeup looked quite fresh and nice, I did not like the sari though, looked like vinyl :/

She later wore a flowy, white Ralph & Russo dress on the red carpet. Straight hair and gold smokey eyes with half brown half bronze liner and pinky nude lips, I guess since her gown was white, she could have gone with pink or a brighter shade. This looked good too, I liked the overall look and how it turned up.

And finally she wore another white Ralph & Russo flowy gown with a floral cape and Bulgari jewellery. A bow shaped sleek bun and bronze pink eyes with a smoked winged liner, highlighted cheeks, fluttery lashes and soft pink lips. This was my favourite look of hers in Cannes 2016.

 

At the end for the Chopard After party, she wore a gorgeous black Ralph & Russo gown with Chopard jewellery, of course. Again a sleek bun but with bronzed face and bold red lips this time. I loved this look too.

Whose look did you like the most? My favourite has to be Aishwarya’s Elie Saab look.

Aishwarya Rai, Sonam Kapoor: Cannes 2014

Aishwarya Rai, Sonam Kapoor: Cannes 2014

First of all guys, this is my 1500th post! I still can’t believe my 1500th post is about Sonam or Ash, coz I don’t like either :/ But yay anyhoo 😀

Coming to the post, a lot has been said about Sonam and Aishwarya already! I would just like to give my 2 cents on it..

Aishwarya Rai was a stunner at Cannes 2014! She stole the show completely..a total veteran! Though by far, this has been her best Cannes 2014 appearance from years and years..this is my favorite year of hers..

On the 1st day (extreme right), she chose a golden corset shaped mermaid like Roberto Cavalli gown..with oh so perfect makeup and hair! Soft wavy loose hair and L’Oreal Paris Moist Mat Lipstick in Lincoln Rose with falsies and oodles of L’Oreal Paris Voluminous Mascara does the trick here.

Though the gown was copied from Broadway star Kristin Chenoweth who wore it to the recent Academy Awards..but nonetheless full credits to Ash to look stunning in it!

On the 2nd day (center), she again chose a Roberto Cavalli..this time a silver and went for smokey eyes and nude lips..nothing too fancy here..though the gown is good..but repetitive after the 1st day.

3rd day (extreme left) Ash went for this beige gold Armani Prive gown..bright teal eyes and red lips. Ok, why is that push up bra clashing with the plunging neckline..we do not want to know how perky your assets are at this age..we know its a push up bra, Dear Ash..spare us. Though the gown is nice and could have been worn in a better way..the bust area looks off..red lips work with this gown but why the bright teal eyes!

So,overall only the 1st look was a bomb and killer..and the most remembered look for years to come..one of Aishwarya Rai’s best in her career..she looked super confident too. And the L’Oreal Moist Mat in Lincoln Rose has been selling off like hot cakes coz of her!!

Coming to our very own ‘self-proclaimed style icon’ Sonam Kapoor.

Sonam Kapoor has showcased 3 very different red carpet looks this year. An Anamika Khanna traditional Sari and 2 Elie Saab Couture gowns..the black was fantabulous! So princessy and grecian..I had no words..rest two outfits were pretty ok..nothing to wow us. I love her Chopard jewellery! Stunning pieces..can make any girl go weak in the knees.

Makeup wise Sonam Kapoor made sensible choices on all the days..all thanks to Namrata Soni. I loved the nude lip with L’Oreal Moist Mat Lipstick in Maple Mocha.

Whom did you like the most or rather which look did you like the most ? I loved the 1st day look for both the girls..

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..

I loved that white shirt and black fishtail skirt she wore the first day..so chic..

Though her looks were hits and misses..but this time fortunately more hits than misses 😉

What do you think ? On the other hand, why on earth is Vidya daily dressed up like an Indian maharani 😀

P.S: I do not own any images.

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..

What/Whom Bollywood brides wore

What/Whom Bollywood brides wore
Regardless of the scale of the wedding, the star couples, especially the brides of Bollywood, have never failed to wow us. Here’s a look at the beautiful ladies in their wedding couture.
1. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan:

Aishwarya looked ravishing in a golden colour Saree designed by Neeta Lulla on her wedding day. The bride was decked in gold, kundan, precious gems and diamond jewellery from head to toe.

2. Esha Deol:

Dressed in a lovely pink lehenga by Rocky S, Esha looked resplendent at the event. Make-up, jewellery, hair were perfectly done keeping subtlety in mind.

3. Kareena Kapoor:

For her D-day Kareena, wore a green punjabi suit, while Saif chose to dress up in a grey kurta-pyjama since they had a simple registered marriage, for the nikaah ceremony she wore her mom in law Sharmila’s old red gharara..restored by Manish Malhotra..and for the reception or Dawaat E Waalima she again wore a Manish Malhotra “old-world” pink gharara

4. Lara Dutta:

Lara picked a gown by Lebanese-born Elie Saab for her wedding which took place in Christian style. Her gown also had a lot of lace, silk taffeta, and organza and a neckline studded with gemstones. What more!

5. Lisa Ray:

Recently married Lisa wore a crystal-encrusted gown by close friend and designer Wendell Rodricks, while for the reception she was seen in an exquisite custom-made Satya Paul sari. That sari sure is gorgeous..georgette sari highlighted with beige and traditional ‘gota patti’ work !!
6. Shilpa Shetty:
Shilpa looked stunning in the shimmering golden coloured dress, designed by Tarun Tahiliani. Complementing her dress was the jewellery which she picked from Anmol jewels.
7. Genelia:
Genelia wore a red lehenga-choli ensemble and net dupatta heavily decorated with golden embroidery and sequins, exuding classic elegance. The red and gold stunning lehenga was designed by Shane and Falguni Peacock. The fitted choli and flairs of the lehenga suited her slim figure.
I loved Lisa Ray’s Satya Paul sari and Genelia’s Lehenga Choli..
