Make-up Breakdowns of Mumtaz Mahal and Jodhaa Bai

Mumtaz Mahal: Classic Reign

Shah Jahan’s beloved Arjumand Banu Begum alias Mumtaz Mahal inspired the iconic Taj Mahal and was arguably the most beautiful queen of the Mughal era. We bring the modern-day Mumtaz to life with a look that accentuates the eyes with an extended eyeliner to create a striking ‘fish-shape’. Softly pretty pink lips and a peachy complexion complete the effect.
