Kareena Kapoor Khan likes to do things differently.  

In her last 25 years as an actor, if she has been Poo (Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham) or Geet (Jab We Met), she has also been Dolly (Omkara) and Maya D'Souza (Jaane Jaan), with each character requiring a different kind of makeup.

Her latest project, The Buckingham Murders, where she plays Jaspreet Bhamra, is now available on Netflix.

Blessed with the Kapoor genes, Kareena's captivating light eyes and rosy complexion are her natural assets. The star, though, attributes her glowing skin to her daily dose of ghee (external link).

Let’s take a closer look at her makeup evolution.

IMAGE: In the same movie, her brown lipstick is the star of the song Deewana hai dekho -- a nod to the '90s style that celebrated earthy and neutral tones.

IMAGE: In Kurbaan (2009), she uses thick kohl-lined eyes and nude lips to intensify her mysterious aura.
