Stunning Makeup Ideas For Every Durga Puja Look

Durga Puja 2024 is right around the corner and we’re super excited to spend those beautiful days worshipping and venerating Durga Maa. It is an exciting time of meeting friends, spending time with loved ones, and just soaking in the festive vibe all around. And of course, like every extravagant Indian festival you must plan multiple outfits and makeup looks for the many events during the 10-day Durga Puja celebrations.

Whether you’re pandal hopping, attending family get-togethers, planning elaborate parties, or simply stepping out with friends – you need to look and feel amazing. When it comes to makeup inspiration, who better to look to than our very own Bollywood divas? They never fail to serve looks and clearly know what they’re doing. Let’s begin and decode how to recreate these celeb makeup looks for Durga Puja 2024.

1. Timeless Pandal Look

Bold eye makeup is a timeless choice while visiting Durga Puja pandals and you can never go wrong with this classic. Kajol aces this look with kohl-lined eyes, minimal lipstick, feathery eyebrows, and the essential big red bindi. Get this look with the ultra-black Lakme Absolute Kohl Ultimate Kajal. It glides on beautifully in the tight line of your eyes and also has a smudge applicator for the perfect liner look. Further, define your eyes with the Maybelline New York Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara that delivers an intense black pigment.

2. Shimmer At Parties

When you’re stunning in gold-toned garments and jewellery, of course, you need your makeup to match that energy. Bhumi Pednekar creates the perfect balance with this shimmery makeup look. Recreate it with the Nykaa Cosmetics Eyes On Me! Quad Eyeshadow Palette which has all the colours you need this festive season. Finish the look with the Nykaa Cosmetics Lip Glaze that delivers the perfect amount of pigment and shine while being nourishing for the lips. Wear it by itself or use a lip liner to enhance and define the shape.

3. Sindoor Khela Glam

If you’re looking forward to the Sindoor Khela ritual this Durga Puja, you must begin with this easy-to-create yet glamorous look seen on Rani Mukherjee. All you need to do is apply a dewy base makeup and don’t forget to apply moisturiser first to protect the skin. Then, create a wing with smudge-proof and waterproof eyeliner. We recommend the MARS Ink Black Eyeliner which has a felt tip applicator (talk about easy) and offers a bold and dark look. For a red lip that won’t budge, trust the Nykaa All Day Matte Limited Edition Liquid Lipstick in the shade Pataka. We promise it can withstand hours of wear without budging.

4. Minimal Beauty

There’s beauty in simplicity and Konkona Sensharma proves it with this look. With minimal eye and lip makeup, she enhances the look with stunning eyebrows and highlighter in just the right places to stand out. Recreate this with the Kay Beauty Hyper Gloss Liquid Luminizing Highlighter that will give you that luminous shine without any obviously visible glitters on the skin for a truly dewy look. For well-defined eyebrows, use the Insight Cosmetics Smudge Free Eyebrow Pencil which has been designed for Indian skin to deliver the perfect pigment and volume.

P.S. If you love her sleek hair, use a hair-finishing stick to tame flyaways and baby hair.

5. Natural Charm

Alia Bhatt’s stunning looks as Rani Chatterjee in RARKPK (2023) won several hearts, but this Durga Puja look from Brahmastra (2022) lives in my head rent-free. All you need is the M.A.C Strobe Dewy Skin Tint – a sheer, illuminating moisturiser that evens out your skin tone and lasts for up to 8 hours. Add to this soft natural glam with the Makeup Revolution Superdewy Liquid Blusher that delivers intense pigment for an all-day dewy look. Finish the look with a nude lipstick.

Parting Thoughts

Durga Puja is a 10-day-long celebration that requires multiple makeup looks for different events. You should also plan your makeup looks depending on the time of day and based on where you’re headed. Ahead of Durga Puja, you should also consider stepping up your skincare routine to focus on concerns like acne, dryness, or dullness to ensure your skin looks great. Also, don’t forget healthy hair habits to look gorgeous from head to toe this Pujo season. Now that you have your makeup sorted, here are some stunning Durga Puja outfit ideas – all celeb-approved of course.
