Must-do beauty ritual before leaving home?
Put on sunscreen as well as some kajal under the eyes and gloss on the lips.
Beauty quick fix?
Put on a reputed moisuriser and some blush. The moisturiser makes the blush stay on longer. But make sure you leave the moisturiser on for sometime before topping it with make-up.
Can’t stay without?
My water spray, as it keeps my face hydrated, especially during the summers.
Your best feature?
My eyes.. many say they are very expressive.
A beauty tip?
Stay well hydrated and as natural as you can be.
A make-up tip?
Never apply make-up before blow-drying your hair. The heat from the dryer can make you perspire and smudge your make-up.

Earthy tones. They give a more natural look and Indian skin tones look nice with earthy colours.
