In Gauri and Nainika
Richa, along with her co-stars and director, also walked the red carpet at the premiere of ‘Youth’ wearing a pale pink Gauri and Nainika gown. Going the minimalist route, her look was finished with simple pearl studs, a glossy lip and an updo. She looked graceful.
We did have one minor gripe and that was with the silver eye-makeup. In some pics, it came off looking odd.

No, this look doesn’t work for me.
Much prefer her in the sabya saree.
Is that a thick layer of vaseline on her face? And what amateur did she hire to paint her eyes for THIS red carpet?
Minimalistic Make up? maybe its the picture, but she came after playing pink holi? Someone’s finihsed a whole blush pot there.
The make up is bad. But otherwise, neck down, she looks great.
Her make-up is completely off…and so pink!!!
With all due respect…eeks!!!
looks like she is from circus….with a long black tail…rofl…this is sad
Pink holi
I’m actually looking at the director of the movie (don’t know the name but know he directed Masaa) instead of Richa. He’s handsome and funny (the photobomb!) I’m a weirdo, I know!
Passing on the message to Neeraj, Amelia! 🙂
Makeup aside, she looks smashing! She must be wearing really high heels, because she looks super tall.
The gown fits her well and she looks statuesque! Pretty in pink.
Very nice job, designers. Richa is carrying off their creation well.
She looks stunning! the makeup looks off in one picture, but looks good in others.
The gown is lovely, but the make-up is terrible. Far from minimalistic, it looks like she’s applied it with a trowel.
Loved the gown till I saw the black tail!!
Bwahaha. It feels like her face was put in the microwave before she came to the red carpet.
Make up is so ghastly ..
Love the gown & she she carries herself with elan…alas the makeup !
Why such cartoonish makeup to otherwise pretty face!
Yes. much preferred Sabyasachi Saree look on her!
Its always nice to see Indian Actresses going traditional way on International platform.
The gown is lovely but the makeup is atrocious.
On a side note, Richa if you are reading this, you make us extremely proud as you were up there for your movie and not promoting a cosmetic brand. A movie that got a 5 minute standing ovation. Thanks a ton for looking gorgeous but more importantly acting in movies that make it to Cannes! Kudos!!
+100.. This. I don’t even understand this. Such a prestigious film festival and Indian media only cares about L’Oreal Ambassadors and their impossible gowns. Most people/actresses who attend the festival with their movies dress normally and then L’Oreal girls hop in and take away attention. Why?!! I wish they do a separate fashion show or gala instead of hijacking Cannes film festival.
Totally agree! There are actually Indian actresses in Cannes with films. It’s just because they are not known or conventuals attractive that they don’t get press. Kudos to highheel confidential for keeping it real and promoting them too!
+1000 Neharika. Well said. People “laughing” at her for her “hideous” make-up need to get a perspective. She’s there promoting her movie, a product of her talent and hard work, in one of the most prestigious film-festivals and here we are laughing at her? I am extremely proud of her for representing us for a film and not just flaunting her beauty or promoting a brand.
Sorry, not even promoting a movie, attending a screening event in which her film is competing.
the dress is fine……the make up on the other hand………OMG!!!!!! The person who did this to her is not her friend 🙂
The gown looks really great on her, however the make-up is disastrous.
pink face and why the gown is lined in black?horrible
Everything is good except her eye makeup… what is going on there….
The black highlights is really distracting. Its not a good contrast for pink. It should have been pink underside too.
This is by far the worst make up I’ve seen on a celeb. She looks hilarious!!
