humi has professed her love for makeup in a quick chat with IANS. “I am
a diehard believer, supporter and lover of makeup. I can’t even remem-
Bber how old I was when I delved into the world of beauty,” she said. The
actress added that she has been around women, who love the world of beauty as
much as she did and “I guess it was their influence along with how positive, fun
and creative makeup can be, that completely engulfed me and continues to do so till date. It actually is therapy for me.”
Being the first Indian personality who has been appointed as the face of a brand like M.A.C makes the 32-year-old actress
feel extremely “honored and proud”. I’ve been a makeup lover since I was very young, so I feel extremely honored and proud
of myself. I was someone who would collect her pocket money to go buy her favorite M.A.C lipstick or foundation. And from
that to actually becoming the face of the brand, it feels like an achievement and that life has come a full circle,” she said.
