Beauty Banter With Sarah-Jane Dias

Signature style
I love colour as that’s the one thing that gets attention within seconds. I like to dress up my lips with lively shades, especially in fun hues by Maybelline.

Most loved on-screen avatar
My favourite reel look is from my first film Game. It was all about deep mouths and extended liners. So classy and old-fashioned!

Morning fix
My hair defines my mood. To ensure that I have a good hair day every day, coconut oil is the first thing I reach out for in the morning.

Night companion
An olive oil eye massage is my secret to a good night’s sleep.

Red-carpet secrets
Dramatic mascaras and intense kohls by M.A.C.

Fond memories
I was gifted a Clarins hamper when I won the Miss India Oman title, and the brand has stuck with me since.

De-stress moment
After a hectic day, aromatherapy massages rejuvenate me instantly.

Go-to essentials
Lip balm and mascara.

DIY remedy  
Milk and honey face pack for immediate brightness.

Make-up disaster
I cringe when I remember how I would forget to match my neck and face.

Power scent
Anything that has spicy or citrusy notes makes me feel confident.

Gorgeous hair trick
After all the styling and heat products, Moroccanoil Dry Scalp Treatment comes as a saviour for your hair.

Treasured keepsake
Davidoff Cool Water is the first perfume that I ever bought.

Travel must-haves
Coconut oil, mascara, brown eye pencil, red lip tint and cream blush. Sephora is my one-stop shop for anything related to skincare and make-up. Though it’s available all over the world, I love the Milan outlet.

A bizarre experience
The blood facial!

Beauty misconception
That red lips don’t work for Indian skin. They totally do.
