Beauty secrets of 7 famous women around the world

Many among us look up to beauty pageant winners and wish to be like them. While they may make it look effortless, real beauty that stays even after the makeup wears off is hard to achieve and maintain, even for them. Beauty is not skin deep and women around the world are here to teach us that their looks are not just the result of an expertly wielded makeup wand but years of exercise, a healthy diet, and a non-negotiable beauty regime.

Blessed with a resplendent complexion and lustrous hair, Aishwarya has set the bar for natural beauty very high.
