If backstage is beauty school, then we're all eager students twice each year. We've been diligently studying this season's makeup and hair trends from Lakme Fashion Week 2024. Bold eyes, dark lips, sheer base and a strong hair game – the Spring/Summer 2025 season delivered some standout beauty moments. Leaning into a little bit of 90s nostalgia, coupled with temporary tattoos and head-turning braids, it's all about getting back in touch with your inner child. Experiment with textures, colours and hair accessories, with a hint of fierceness that's still playful. Here are seven beauty looks we're loving from Lakme Fashion Week 2024.
01Bold Eyes

We don't just mean a liner and kohl eyes; it's about really going all out this season. Designers on the runway drew attention to the eyes, 'the window to our soul', with fierce eye makeup. Smokey eyes, heavy graphic liners and even electrifying the eyes with sparkles and glitter dominated the looks. As seen at the Péro show on the opening night, the artists took it up a notch with temporary tattoos as eyeshadow. We believe the more creative, the better. Others opted for chrome eyes, smudged eyes, slim rimmed looks and frosted eye shadow too. Key takeaway; Don't shy away . Create your desired eyes with Lakme Absolute Explore Eye Paint that comes in many shades and is ideal to perfect your glam face.
02Braid Upgrade

Level up the simple beauty staple with braided buns, pigtails, and French braids. Add hair accessories like hair bows, ribbons, clips, and scarves and don't stop at just one. Channel maximalism when it comes to hair props and even braids this season. On day 1 & 2, both Indian design houses Péro and Payal Pratap made a strong case for this chic hair game
0390’s Glamour
Bring on the glitter on your eyes with chrome eyes. From Sameer Madan, to Payal Pratap, it was all about frosted eyelids. Add a lacquered lip gloss and you're ready for your 90s moment. Reminiscent of the 'more is more' era, it's sophisticated and impactful with vibrant colours and dazzling shimmer, with a hint of fresh-face simplicity. Put your glam face on with a host of Lakme eyeshadow palettes.
04Temporary Tattoos

Forgot your necklace at home? Commitment issues? Indecisive? No worries. Temporary tattoos are turning eyeballs this season. Just like Péro's big fashion party that inspired us to get creative and handsy with Hello Kitty tattoos, you can turn to stickers and stamps to add your own personality to your outfit.
05Sheer Base

Make way for barely there finish. The 'no-makeup' look is here to stay. Veil dark circles and spots first and then move to foundation or do it the other way round – what works for you, works for you. Some days I get away with just a concealer. I love the Lakme Superglow Concealer which is a brightening concealer with vitamin C complex and glycerin. It keeps the skin hydrated and radiant. Top it with any lightweight Lakme foundation.
06Slick Back Hair
