Ain't nobody as gorgeous as our birthday star Jacqueline Fernandez. Always smiling, always chirpy and full of good energy, Jacqueline never fails to charm the world with her charisma. It’s not just her jovial nature that we’re in love with, we also think she has great style and aesthetics. She's been slaying the beauty game for a long time.
The queen is known for her glowy complexion, glossy hair and pampering self-care. She's also refreshingly candid, unlike her other Bollywood contemporaries. She often posts photos about how she gets there on her Instagram. So we scouted for the best beauty lessons to take from Jackie's tips social media feed on her birthday.
Always go for cruelty-free beauty products
As an animal-lover, Jacqueline readily agreed to be the face of The Body Shop owing to their stance against animal testing. Of late, more beauty brands are shunning toxic ingredients and animal testing to opt for more natural, vegan ingredients that will be ethical and beneficial to all in the long run. She even created a special makeup line of a mattifying foundation and liquid lipsticks.

Self-care is indulgence in alternative therapies
The actress is a fan of alternative therapies like cupping. Cupping first originated in China and involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This reportedly helps with increasing the blood flow and facilitates healing in the area. Make sure to get it done by a well trained and certified therapist if you're going to try this procedure.
When in doubt, favour pink pouts
Alexa, play Pink Lips! The Mrs. Serial Killer actress loves sporting a killer pink pout and it really suits her. Pink has always been her go-to signature shade. If you want to achieve a natural-looking pout like hers then go for a pink lip tint or a reddish toned lip tint.
Don't be shy of hair extensions
Dramatic extensions are a great way to change things up to create a longer, fuller or more voluminous style. Plus, it serves as a non-committal way to really achieve a bold hair makeover, especially for a big event. While Fernandez's maintains medium-length hair, she added ultra-long extensions to jazz things up from time to time.
On-point contouring will never fail you
Whether heading to a red carpet or a major event, she'll always have a snatched face. Thank the art of contouring for it. The makeup technique here is to apply a bronzer under cheekbones and across jawbones with a highlighter on parts where the face naturally reflects light. Eye contouring, nose contouring and even lip contouring; she's tried it all.
Those brows better be on fleek
Well-groomed brows define your face structure and can make you seem well-rested. They can let you get away with little to no makeup too. Jacqueline's impeccable brows are always filled with subtle brow powder without being overdone. It indeed creates a lasting impact on her entire face, in turn enhancing the look.
Makeup is a form of self-expression
Jacqueline will agree with us too that makeup is all about expressing yourself while having fun with colours. Whether it’s decorating your face with stickies or swiping on a pop of blinding highlighter on your cheekbones; at the end of the day, as long as you’re having fun, that’s all that matters. Making mistakes is par for the course too!
But first, normalize skincare and all-natural
Scrolling through Jacqueline’s Instagram you will get to see her very glam side which involves high fashion, full makeup and larger than life costumes. You'll also witness another side of her, where she can be seen hanging out with her cats, riding horses, working out and enjoying life au naturel. She embraces her natural beauty, like freckles and isn't shy of using kitchen ingredients as her skincare. She even shares them with the world without hesitation.
The thing about her beauty experiments is though they are inspirational in some sense still, they are quite easy to follow. She's also absolutely candid about everything, unlike many of her Bollywood contemporaries. Which one could you relate to the most?
