    Less really is more for Ananya Panday. She makes minimal makeup feel playful, natural, and camera-ready, showing that a hint of colour and a fresh face can be all you need to steal the spotlight. From red carpet events to casual outings, she often opts for looks that highlight her natural features rather than mask them. Dewy, well-prepped skin, soft blushes, and natural lip tints are staples, while her eye make-up remains understated. 


    And the best part? She proves that minimal doesn’t have to be boring. Here are some of her standout looks where keeping it simple truly paid off.

    Ananya Panday’s Minimal Make-up Beauty Moments

    Fresh and Effortless 

    Ananya Panday embraces a minimal make-up look that’s polished yet natural. Her skin glows with a dewy, even finish, complemented by a soft peach blush and subtle eye definition. Nude-pink lips keep the look understated, paired with her naturally groomed eyebrows. 


    Summer Glow

    In a hazy night portrait, the Swarovski brand ambassador, Ananya Pandey, showcased a bronzed make-up look perfect for summer. Her base was luminous, giving her skin a healthy glow. A soft peach blush added a subtle flush to her cheeks, while muted rosy-nude matte lips lent a refined, understated edge.

    Guava Girl 

    Ananya Panday embraced the gauva blush trend with a soft, romantic make-up look. She wore a lightweight base that highlighted her natural complexion, paired with a shimmery pink eyeshadow that added a touch of sparkle. Her cheeks featured a warm pink blush, and her lips were coated with a glossy pink tint. 

    Kohl Accents

    Ananya Panday added a touch of drama to her minimal make-up with kohl-lined eyes. Her skin remains luminous and even-toned, achieved with a lightweight, dewy base that lets her natural texture show through. A soft peach blush gives her cheeks a gentle flush, while her lips stay understated with a muted nude semi-matte lipstick. 


    Softly Defined

    Ananya Panday keeps her make-up minimal yet polished, letting her natural features take centre stage. Her skin is luminous and radiant, with a light tint that evens out the complexion while maintaining a natural glow. Well-defined eyebrows frame her face, while her lashes are curled and lightly coated with mascara. On her eyes, a subtle orange-brown eyeshadow adds depth without overpowering the look. A hint of blush on the apples of her cheeks and a pinkish-peachy nude lipstick keep the look fresh, complemented by soft contouring for gentle definition.

    because each time I looked at it, I saw a new meaning.

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.
