Eisha Singh's step-by-step makeup tutorial is perfect for natural look
Indian television actress Eisha Singh recently gave fans a glimpse into her everyday beauty routine in a Get Ready With Me (GRWM) session with Pinkvilla. Known for her roles in shows like Ishq Ka Rang Safed, Ishq Subhan Allah, and Sirf Tum, Eisha has become a familiar face on Indian television. She was also a part of Bigg Boss 18, where she ended her journey in 6th place. In the session, Eisha opened up about her personal makeup hacks, skincare steps, and the small things she swears by when getting ready for the day.
'No Rules' Is Her Only Rule
Before she began applying makeup, Eisha made it clear that she doesn't follow any hard rules. She believes it's a result of years of learning from professionals, combined with trial and error on her own. 'Now I know what works for me and what doesn't,' she said. She added that she's become confident in doing her own makeup, and that shows throughout the video.
For this GRWM session, she was preparing for an interview, so she went for a light, fresh, and simple look, perfect for everyday wear.
Step 1: Skincare First
Eisha started by prepping her face. She dipped her face into a bowl of ice water—a popular trick used by celebrities to reduce puffiness and tighten pores. She said this helps wake up her skin and gives her face a clean base to work on.
She shared that her skin had been in great shape during her time inside the Bigg Boss house, mainly because it was pollution-free. But once she came back to her regular routine, she noticed the effects of city life on her skin. Now, she's making an effort to care for it again.
Step 2: Hydration and Sun Protection
With dry skin being a concern, Eisha uses Akosma's face hydrating serum—three pumps of it, as advised by her dermatologist. Next comes the True Derma sunscreen, followed by Cetaphil's face moisturizer. This trio ensures her skin is well-hydrated and protected before makeup.
Step 3: A Natural Base
She applies the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in the shade Light 2.2 under her eyes and on spots that need coverage. Then, she goes in with the Make Up For Ever Stick Foundation, blending it either with her hands or a sponge. To help her base set well, she sprays some M.A.C. Fix+ setting spray. She says this helps melt the makeup into her skin and makes it last longer.

Step 4: Brows and Eyes
Eisha starts her eye makeup after the base is complete. She fills in her brows using the Benefit Gimme Brow Gel, giving them a fuller yet natural look.
For the eyeshadow, she picks shades from the Huda Beauty Nude palette, mixing matte tones with a bit of glitter to keep it soft and elegant. 'Wear your makeup with confidence,' she advises viewers, reminding them not to be afraid of trying new shades.
She lines her eyes with Sugar's eyeliner pen, a product she seems to enjoy for its precision. Then she curls her lashes and applies Smashbox SuperFan mascara to lift them. To add even more volume and length, she layers on Maybelline's Sky High mascara.
Step 5: Blush and Contour
When it comes to blush, Eisha loves a natural flush. She uses Rare Beauty's liquid blushes in the shades Joy and Happy. Using a brush, she gently taps the product into her cheeks. 'It gives a natural, dewy look,' she says. She admits she should have blended her concealer better before applying blush, but that's what makes the video so real and relatable.
For contour, she uses Sugar's contour kit to add some definition to her face.
Step 6: Lips and Final Touch
Eisha keeps her lips simple yet polished. She first moisturizes them with Vaseline Lip Therapy—Rosy Lips, then applies a lip liner and follows it up with M.A.C.'s Brickthrough lipstick. To finish the look, she dabs on M.A.C. Studio Fix Compact in shade NC 35, which sets the makeup and removes any unwanted shine.
The Final Word: Water and Rest Are Key
Before wrapping up, Eisha Singh gives an important reminder: drink enough water and get proper sleep. These, according to her, are the real secrets to good skin. Makeup can enhance features, but healthy skin is the real foundation.
Throughout the session, Eisha shares small glimpses of her life, like how she often roams around her house while doing makeup. Her laid-back yet knowledgeable approach makes her tutorial not just helpful but also very real. She encourages beginners to try things out, experiment, and see what makes them feel good.

Manisha Koirala: Age is not a barrier to start looking after oneself
Actress and cancer crusader Manisha Koirala says she has come to a realization that 'age is not a barrier to start looking after oneself' and added that she is now devoted to the 'well-being of body, mind, and spirit'. Manisha took to Instagram, where she shared three pictures of herself from the gym posing alongside her friend looking stunning in athleisure. For the caption, she wrote: 'Age is not a barrier to start looking after oneself… I may have come to this realisation a little late, but better late than never. Here I am—devoted to the well-being of body, mind, and spirit.' The actress credited her friend for inspiring her in many ways. She added: 'Blessed to have great friends in life @namgyal_singh who inspires me—not just in fitness, but in how she defeats life's toughest moments with strength and a warm smile.' Talking about womanhood, she added: 'Here's to womanhood (never an easy ride), to life, to friendship, and to aging with grace. Here's to choosing people who add meaning to our lives.' The 54-year-old actress was last seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's debut OTT series 'Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar'. The show was set in the red-light district of Heera Mandi in Lahore during the Indian independence movement. It touched on the topic of the lives of tawaifs and their intersection with political and personal struggles under British colonial rule. Talking about the actress, Manisha is one of the most popular and highest-paid actresses of her time. She made her acting debut with the Nepali film Pheri Bhetaula in 1989, and later debuted in Indian cinema with the Hindi drama Saudagar in 1991. She was then seen in films such as 'Bombay', 'Agni Sakshi', 'Indian, Gupt: The Hidden Truth', 'Kachche Dhaage', 'Mudhalvan', 'Company, 1942: A Love Story', 'Akele Hum Akele Tum', 'Khamoshi: The Musical, Dil Se.. and Lajja'. Over the course of the next decade, she worked in unconventional and art-house films, such as the survival drama 'Escape From Taliban', 'Elektra' and 'I Am'. It was in 2012, when she was diagnosed with last stage ovarian cancer and underwent a year-long treatment. Manisha made a successful recovery by mid-2014 and returned with the coming-of-age drama Dear Maya in 2017.

Karan Johar Gets His Face Insured? 'Close Friend' Inspired Filmmaker For This Step
Previously, Karan Johar was also accused of turning to Ozempic for his weight loss transformation. Karan Johar is back in the headlines. This time, for a viral Reddit post which claims the filmmaker recently got his face insured. Yes, you read it right. Recently, the post grabbed everyone's attention after it claimed that KJo recently flew to South Korea to get his face insured. Reportedly, the filmmaker was 'inspired' by one of his close friends from the South film industry to take this step. 'Rumour has it Karan Johar secretly flew to South Korea multiple times to get… his face insured. Yup, inspired by a close friend, and apparently it's a trend there. Insiders say he's been way more chill since—smiling more, less snappy, even gave a rare compliment at work 😳 No word from him yet, but now we're all wondering: does this cover acne, sunburns, wrinkles? And how much is that premium?! 👀" the post read. If this is true, Karan Johar is not the first Indian celebrity to get his body part insured. Amitabh Bachchan also has his voice insured. It is said that John Abraham also has his ass insured. Meanwhile, Karan Johar's physical transformation has also been the talk of the town for a long time. Previously, it was said that the Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani director turned to Ozempic, a drug approved for Type 2 diabetes that's recently been trending for its weight loss side effects. However, in a recent interview with Raj Shamani, KJo revealed that his weight loss journey had nothing to do with any medication. 'I have always been battling the bulge," he said and then added, 'I've tried thousands of diets, five hundred kinds of workouts, every type you can imagine. Every diet, every workout routine, I've tried it all. I've been combating this for years." Karan further revealed that it wasn't until he got his blood work done recently that he discovered he had thyroid and other health issues that needed attention. This marked a turning point in his fitness journey. 'It was only recently, after years, when I got my blood work done that I found out I had certain thyroid issues and other problems that I needed to fix and I've been working on correcting them," he shared. On persistent rumours linking him to popular weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro, Karan responded firmly. 'Now people ask me, 'Are you on Mounjaro? Are you on Ozempic?' I'm tired of these comments. People don't know my truth. You don't know." First Published: June 07, 2025, 09:09 IST

‘To be an artist or a writer, you have to be in the business of serious noticing': Amitava Kumar
Amitava Kumar writes (and paints and draws) every day. It is an 'important' part of his identity, says the writer. The author of several works of nonfiction and four novels, Kumar creates work that is a testament to the value of consistency and the symbiotic relationship between all forms of the creative arts. His latest novel, My Beloved Life, is a moving portrait of the hardships that the common Indian overcame – and succumbed to – during the COVID-19 pandemic. Kumar also pondered the devastating effects of the pandemic in The Yellow Book. The second in a series of three books, in which Kumar responds to the world around him through drawings, writings, and memories. In The Blue Book, Kumar tries to see beauty in a world where fake news reigns supreme and everything appears to be on the verge of collapse. In the final book in the series, The Green Book, Kumar gives us an insight into the mind of a writer who observes closely and attempts to capture in images and words what is happening to the world around us. In a conversation with Scroll, the writer talked about how the series came to be, why he doesn't want to have 'the cosmopolitan ease of someone at ease everywhere', and how you can put your iPad to good use. Excerpts from the conversation: How did you sort your thoughts into three colours, that is, blue, yellow, and green? It started with the blue. And that was almost by chance. Just a string of associations and a painting I had made with a blue book in it. At that time, I had no thought of doing other books. And then the idea of the next book came. This time, particularly during the long period I was in London, I was looking for the colour yellow. By the time I was working on the green book, the coherent idea of the books in a series, had formed in my mind. Green now meant in my mind the search for nature and for rebirth but also for what was young and perhaps unripe like a first love. A traveller, observer, writer – are these the three words that best describe you? On a good day, what do you feel most like? And on gloomier days? Your middle term – observer – is the link that unites the other two. If you are to be an artist or a writer, you have to be in the business of serious noticing. On a good day, I feel the easy unity between all my pursuits. There is a sense of creating something more than what one was given. On gloomier days, I feel like I'm taking notes, in one form or another, on events unfolding beyond one's control in the world at large. There is in that instance less of creativity and more of a kind of desperate, maybe even silent, urgency. While all three are true for you, I wouldn't hesitate to think of you as an artist–painter too. Do you see yourself as one? Thank you. You are very kind. Now and then, I allow myself to imagine that I'm an artist–painter. Actually, I make sure I do at least one drawing or painting each day. On the other hand, I want to insist on the viability and the dignity of being an amateur. In a world where democracy is shrinking, billionaires and crony capitalism and politicians blessing the billionaire's beta-bahu, we have to at least keep the arts democratic. Everyone can write or paint every day. It is not necessary to be brilliant at it; instead, it can be a small, nourishing practice that enriches our lives. In The Green Book, you write about observing the Ganga and those who live along its banks. As someone who divides their time between New York and India, what baffles you, enrages you, and gladdens you each time you come back to the river? The Ganga has been receding from my hometown, Patna. So it is as if she is leaving us. What gladdens me is simply the sight of the river, and then to stand beside it and sense how the river has flown along those banks for millennia. What is enraging is the filth. In The Yellow Book, you confront the devastation of COVID-19. This is a theme you revisit in My Beloved Life. Life as we know it came to a standstill for each of us. Still, we see that you drew through it, wrote wherever you could. What is the value of art and creation in such exceptional circumstances? Did it ever feel futile, or powerless? I don't know. I mean, that's the honest answer. Your art, your writing, can't make the dead come back. I remember reading about the metal in the crematoriums melting from the unending fires. And our political leaders boasting about the size of their election rallies. When I received news of an uncle's death near Bhagalpur from COVID, I remember painting one of the pandemic postcards. 'Why are we (the educated liberals) so ineffective in our dissent?,' you write in The Blue Book. Have you found an answer to this yet? It's an old question. People find different answers that work for a while, and we see signs of effective dissent. Wasn't that true of the Arab Spring? Or, for that matter, the anti-CAA protests? I don't have an answer for myself that is permanent or necessarily potent. I can only respond in my writing. For instance, faced with the deluge of fake news, I wrote a novel called A Time Outside This Time. You also mourn the loss of your language, Hindi to be precise. And you consider yourself to be in 'exile' in the US. But when I read My Beloved Life, I couldn't recall a novel that was so Bihari in its mood. So Indian. How do you slip into this Indian–Bihari identity in your fiction while travelling so widely around the world? Does the travel in some way distill what it means to be Indian or a Bihari? That's very nice to hear. I love that. And can't thank you enough for the compliment. Don't know what to say in response to your question. I see people all the time who only two months, or maybe only two weeks, after leaving Delhi for New York, begin to sound different in their speech. I have never left my roots. Whenever I speak in Hindi, people will always ask me, Aap Bihar se hain? I don't want to have the cosmopolitan ease of someone at ease everywhere; I'd rather embrace something more difficult, of being at home nowhere. (I think I stole that from Edward Said.) In all three books you hark back to the writers whose works have inspired you. There's also a moving chapter on Shaunak Sen's film. We rarely read about how other forms of media apart from literature inspires a writer. Would you say that, in a way, these three books are also a way for you to reflect on your own growth as an artist and an audience? Sometimes we forget that it is equally important for an artist to be a refined consumer of the arts… An important part of my identity, something that I do daily, is read literature and look at art or watch films, and I cannot imagine doing writing where those parts of me aren't reflected. The other thing I want to tell you is that I was a provincial boy when growing up, quite ignorant not only of the world at large but the cultural riches that surrounded me. It has been a wonderful journey, this life, learning about what is created in complex and beautiful ways by the people I admire. And that is also the story I'm continually sharing with my audience of readers and others. Many of your sketches look like they were done on the move. Is that true? Do you carry your pens, pencils, and colours everywhere you go or do you like to come back, reflect on what you saw, and transpose it on paper? Yes, yes, I carry many of these materials with me. But, you know, it is easy when what you are carrying materials for watercolours. I've never painted oils in the open air like many wonderful artists that one reads about. In some cases, however, I've made a quick sketch on the move and then worked on another version back in my study. Also, photographs. I have taken a photo on my phone and then come back home and painted that scene. I forgot to mention the iPad! I have taken it with me on my travels and drawn on the iPad too. When did it feel like the right time to introduce your reader to your artworks? Would you consider lending your artworks to an exhibition? I didn't start doing these paintings in earnest until the start of the pandemic. People were dying – I'm talking of March and April of 2020 – and after the snow melted here flowers were blooming. I started painting those flowers on the obituaries I cut out from the New York Times. When I posted them on social media, Hemali Sodhi asked me if she could use them on the website for the new literary agency she was starting, A Suitable Agency. And then, a few weeks later, when I kept up posting more work, she wrote to me and said that she thought there was a book to be put together. One thing led to another, and now I draw or paint every day. Just as I write every day, even if it is only a few words.
