Indian supermodels show us just how they do it back home, but not without packing their favourite beauty products for the journey.
Ami Vashi - Femina Miss India World 2003
Beauty secret :: I do Yoga which helps me calm down, because stress always affects beauty. Which is why my skin is kept in good condition and not spotty. Why leave it for foundation to sort it out when you can just have a clear complexion to start with?
Magic product :: Every girl needs her kajol. But you need to know how to apply it otherwise you damage your eyes – don’t share sticks, kids!
Handbag essential :: St Ives hand cream, it keeps my hands very soft.Can’t live without :: My cleanser, to keep my skin clean and fresh.
Must have :: My lip-gloss. Lips are good for the look and the spirit. If your lips are feeling gorgeous and full, you will want to smile more.
Beauty tip :: Drink lots of water. It’s cheap, cheerful and thankfully nowadays, considered chic!
Gauhar Khan - Former Femina Miss India
Beauty secret :: If you are beautiful, you are beautiful, that’s all there is to it. There’s no big secret. All make-up can do is enhance what you’ve already got. For a magic transformation, you’ll need a cosmetic surgeon not cosmetics!
Magic product :: MAC products and Body Shop body butter cream are amongst the greatest things that have ever been invented. After the wheel and, perhaps, penicillin!
Handbag essential :: Perfume. I have so many I can’t choose. Issey Miyake is usually the one that suits my mood the most. Or at least at the moment.
Can’t live without :: My face powder from Maybelline.
Must have :: As in what product could I not live without? I don’t think any product is worth killing yourself over. If there is such a thing, it’s probably best not to know what it is!
Beauty tip :: Drink eight glasses of water daily.
