This Actress May Have the Best Makeup at the Cannes Film Festival

BY KRISTIE DASH, DIGITAL BEAUTY EDITOR, MAY 17, 2016, 8:00:00 AM

Aishwarya Rai, Bollywood actress and ridiculously good-looking human, has (unsurprisingly) been nailing her makeup looks at the Cannes Film Festival this week. Her makeup gets prettier and prettier by the hour, according to every photograph we've seen of her, so we thought we'd take a moment to properly acknowledge all this perfection. Starting with the above: Her blue smoky eyes from this weekend were shimmering, multidimensional, and completely mesmerizing"and she was just getting started.

This look proves that you should never underestimate the flick of an eyeliner. Paired with a red lip and loose waves, Rai served up some seriously beautiful old-Hollywood glamour:

Not everyone can wear lilac lipstick and honestly, it's a little weird even here. But being that she's often been cited as "the most beautiful woman in the world," Rai can pull off just about anything. I like to think of this as YOLO, the makeup edition:

This might be the most perfectly blended smoky eye we've ever seen. It's her go-to look, and she kills it every time:

Remember this roundup the next time you feel like you're in a makeup rut. Not only will Rai's beauty choices inspire you, but they will be a good reminder that makeup can be"and should be"fun.

Oh shit! Allure did a piece on her. Damnnn ok so at least there was positive buzz too. Glad she took a risk, seems to have paid off. Seen a lot of other International media lovin' it.
I like her makeup on day 2 more though. Not necessary a big fan of lilac lips. Kind of loud more RC same with blue eye shadow. Better suited for runway models.

The US has always been gaga over Ash's beauty. Oprah's title of world's most beautiful woman is still with her and will stand her in good stead when she makes faux pas like the lilac lipstick it seems 😆

She is one of the most beautiful women in the world & I liked her blue eyeshadow even though everyone else thought it's like Aaradhya went crazy with her crayons but I hated the lilac lipstick but the more I look at it, the more I don't mind it. It actually suits her now I feel.
