Tales from the powder room: Urvashi Dholakia

Tales from the powder room

What’s in your make-up pouch?
My kohl pencil, lip gloss, compact and blush-on. 

One product you can’t do without?
My L’Oreal blush.

A must-wear for a night out?
It depends completely on the occasion and what I’m wearing. I go light on my make-up for informal occasions, and apply a little bit of everything (mascara, eye-shadow, blush, etc) for formal nights, without overdoing it.

One beauty faux pas most Indian women make?
Going wrong with your compact shade, even if it’s an established brand. Be very careful and ensure your compact matches your skin tone.

One beauty tip?
Whilst applying make-up, don’t forget to touch up the most beautiful part of your body – your neck! Or else your face and neck will have two different shades! Instead of covering your skin with make-up, try and be as natural as possible and concentrate on keeping your skin healthy and glowing.
