Cannot think of a makeup look to go with your ethnic clothes? Look to Bollywood for inspiration.
1. Sonam Kapoor
There is no doubt that when it comes to fashion and celebrity makeup in Bollywood, Sonam Kapoor slays every time. Sonam creates a summer makeup by pairing a beautiful blue lehenga with bold smokey eye makeup which makes her face makeup look gorgeous. She has lined her eyes in black and opted for full lashes and filled brows. Generously blushed cheeks and mauve-pink lips complete this look which you can carry with almost any Indian outfit.
2. Deepika Padukone
Scared to pull of dark lips as your summer makeup look? Take inspiration from Deepika as she goes bold with a dark burgundy shade on her lips while wearing a creamy white saree. This summer, bring out your sarees and pick out all the vampy shades in your lipstick collection if you want to recreate this look. She has gone minimal with the rest of her makeup- heavy lashes and lined eyes.
3. Shraddha Kapoor
If you are planning to make your summer makeup look with Indian outfit, then follow the steps of the gorgeous Shraddha Kapoor. After all, the entire beauty community agrees less is more sometimes. Shraddha has not put a lot of effort into her makeup for this particular look. If you are into pastels and pretty kurtas during the warm months, then kohl-rimmed eyes like her are a must. Her defined brows add a dimension to her face while the blush pink shade on her lips gives her the girl next door charm we love. Do not forget a coat of mascara!
4. Alia Bhatt
Want a Bollywood inspired Indian makeup look that will flatter and not overshadow the gorgeous Anarkali you are planning to wear? Alia has the perfect makeup formula for you. Fill in your brows, so they stand out. Lining your eyes is an absolute must when it comes to ethnic outfits. Follow that up with a coat of mascara so that your lashes look curled. For your lips, go for a brownish nude with a tinge of orange.

5. Kareena Kapoor
Accept it, Bebo doesn't age and can carry off just about any makeup look with ease. In this Bollywood inspired makeup look, she opts for a golden shadow and kohl for her eyes. The full lashes and filled brows add definition to her eye makeup. The pink gloss on her lips is very summery and a nice break from the matte rage that has overtaken the community. Complete the look with a dash of mascara and a bindi.

6. Kangana Ranaut
Kangana Ranaut has been slaying with the sarees lately, and her makeup is always on point. Her eye makeup is minimal with heavy golden shadow and mascara. The glossy pink lips and the blushed cheeks look fantastic together. Have a party to attend? This look will only take you minutes!
7. Anushka Sharma
Our favourite chirpy actress is now the first lady of Indian cricket, but that discussion is for another day. Anushka opts for a cool toned makeup with her beautiful attire. If you are planning to wear an Anarkali kurta or lehenga skirt, then recreating this look can be a great option. Opt for a light eyeshadow but ditch the liner. Apply the mascara generously followed by a coat of blush on the cheeks. For your lips, choose a matte plum or mauve shade like Anushka!
8. Sonakshi Sinha
Always known for sporting ethnic looks like none other, Sonakshi is your go-to gal if you want a Bollywood inspired makeup look. Here, she steals the show with her full and lush eyelashes that are further enhanced by her defined brows. She does not use an eyeliner and goes for a nude lip so that her outfit attracts the most attention. As for her face makeup, she uses a contour and a blush to add dimension.
9. Parineeti Chopra
Parineeti shows you for once and for all that iridescent eyeshadows are a perfect fit for ethnic wear. If you are planning to go all out at your next wedding invitation, then take inspiration from this look. Her lashes stand curled due to the generous application of mascara which makes her eye look pop. The nude pink lips contrast the combination of highlight, bronzer and blush on her face.
10. Aditi Rao Hydari
Summer fashion is not complete without skirts and gorgeous ethnic tops. If you want a bold makeup look that would complete that look, then look at Aditi Rao Hydari for a lesson. Her eye makeup stands out because of the smoky effect. The defined lashes and brows hold the look beautifully. The light touch of blush and highlight pairs well with the almost matte nude lip.
11. Vidya Balan
Nobody in Bollywood can carry off the traditional saree like Vidya Balan. She likes to keep her makeup subtle and simple. Her heavily kohl-line eyes and smudged eye shadow work with the filled in brows to make the look stand out. For her lips, she opts for a tinted gloss. Her face makeup consists of contouring and highlighting.
