your Beauty Our duty

This year’s leading lady is no doubt Bollywood beauty Frieda Pinto. While Angelina Jolie’s star power and Meryl Streep’s tremendous talent will make them hard to beat on February 22nd - Freida’s gorgeous glow will keep all eyes on her. She loves to play up her natural beauty by enhancing her already gorgeous features and beautiful coloring.



Renowned celebrity makeup artist and global beauty expert, Shalini Vadhera has painted the picture for how to get this year’s hottest star’s red carpet look!

Healthy Glow

To warm up to an olive tone, start with a primer. Freida goes for the "less is more" look so opt for a tinted moisturizer to finish off a flawless complexion. Set with a neutral powder to set the look.

All Eyes On You

Sexy eyes are Freida's choice to play up. Sweep on a neutral palette of golds and browns on the lids to give a hint of glamour. Next, apply a think line of black liner to the top lid. Finish the look with two or three coats of very black mascara for a captivating stare.

Pouty Perfection

To get her sexy, luscious lips the secret is to simply pat on a darker than nude lipcolor like the Global Goddess Cardamom Lip Veil ($16) to have a natural pout.

Less Is More

To keep cheeks subtly defined there is no better way than to use a bronzer over blush and place it high on the cheekbone for lift and definition.

Last, but certainly not least, follow the Indian secret to super shiny hair like Freida's with a once weekly coconut oil scalp massage. This little secret gives her glossy looking hair.

Well, that’s Shalini’s take on Frieda Pinto’s look for the Oscars 2009.
