This way the way of doing makeup has changed
When we see a video of Alia Bhatt walking the ramp at Paris Fashion Week, one thing definitely catches our attention and that is her makeup. In other words, in Himanshu’s language of ‘Khichdi’, Alia wore such make-up while walking on the rampwalk that no one even knew that she had put on make-up. Well, this is a bit much. But actually, now we mostly see the trend of no makeup look or natural look in movies. Most of the time the actress is presented in such a look that it looks like she has no make-up on her face, rather she always looks beautiful like this.

In fact, in earlier times neither make-up was very advanced nor did anyone know proper lighting techniques. That’s why the heroine used to wear dark makeup to look good on screen.

In fact, in 1955, the Cine-Costume Make-up Artists and Hairdressers Association (CCMAA) made a rule and under this rule, no female make-up artist was allowed to work in films.
