Best beauty Instagrams of the week: Kareena Kapoor Khan and Priyanka Chopra 

Nude lips, cat-eye flicks and lit-from-within skin took over Instagram this past week

Special occasion beauty looks don't have to be all-out flash. You can try something simple but statement-making, like an eyeliner flick or a swipe of pink lipstick, just like your favourite celebrities. Ahead, take inspiration from their best beauty looks on Instagram this week.

Mira Rajput Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor Ahuja prove that an eyeliner is a must-have in your makeup kit 

With mask-wearing still incredibly important, wearing eyeliner can help to accentuate the eye and exaggerate your expressions. Moody or barely-there, there's an eyeliner look that'll serve your purpose. But Mira Rajput Kapoor proves that you don't have to get out of your comfort zone to add it to your repertoire—she added just a thin line on her upper lid and paired it with a bold brow and matte lip. Preity Zinta took it one step further—adding an elegant, upward flick on her lids too. Vaani Kapoor used brown eyeliner to tight-line her eyes and took into the inner corners too, following the shape of her lash line and extending it forward. Sonam Kapoor Ahuja embraced the other end of the spectrum. Her makeup artist traced an extra-thick super-matte black pigment along the upper and lower lash lines with flick-like edges. 

Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Kareena Kapoor Khan make a case for a major matte lip moment

There will always be place for a glossy, luscious lip. But if you want your lipstick to last all day—and not get messy when you wear a mask—matte might be the way to go. It is the quickest and easiest party-ready strategy that communicates subtle elegance, especially if you're not into OTT flashiness. Today's matte lipsticks aren't dry and uncomfortable—they have satin finishes and smudge as little as possible. Kareena Kapoor Khan wore a rose pink shade on her lips, leaving the rest of her skin bare. Kylie Jenner and Priyanka Chopra took a more specific approach, adding a similar-shaded lip pencil to create definition to their nude lipstick. Samantha Akkineni played with textures—gleamy, satiny eye gloss across her lids, and a similar-hued matte shade on her lips.
