While we may all love Ranbir Kapoor as an actor, we donât like him as Alia Bhattâs husband and heâs not helping the cause with everything he has been saying and doing. In the latest video for a leading magazine, Alia Bhatt shared her everyday skincare and makeup look. During the video, the actress shared her hack for applying makeup while revealing that she prefers nude lipsticks and wipes off her lipstick after applying it so as to keep her natural lip colour with a slight tint. Alia said that the reason why she does it is because her husband Ranbir likes the natural colour of her lips.
In the Vogue video, Alia Bhatt shared that as a boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor would ask her to wipe off her lipstick whenever they used to go out together because HE LIKES the natural colours of her lips. Sure, so he shouldâve found a woman who likes to keep her natural lip colour and not wear lipstick instead of making his girlfriend (now wife) wipe off her lipstick which she clearly likes wearing.
What is with men finding women and then changing them and making them do things that they like? Just find someone who does things the way you like them instead of finding someone and then changing them. This is reminding me of Jonah Hill who dated a surfer and expected her to not wear swimsuits. Erm, why didnât Ranbir just find a woman who doesnât like wearing lipstick?

As a beauty enthusiast, Iâve kept track of Alia Bhattâs makeup looks and Iâve gone from liking them to getting bored of her no-makeup makeup looks, minimal looks and the same old boring shades of nude lipsticks. And guess what? The last time Alia Bhatt wore dark lipstick was a red lip she sported in ONE look for the promotion of Sanjay Leela Bhansaliâs film Gangubai Kathiawadi.
The minute the news about Ranbir Kapoor asking Alia Bhatt to wipe off her lipstick, I took a deep dive into Aliaâs Instagram handle before 2018 when she was believed to be dating her Student Of The Year co-star Sidharth Malhotra and not Ranbir. And my memory did not fail me because I spotted the actress wearing various shades of stunning pink, hot pink, magenta, maroon, red and brown lipsticks. Donât believe me? Khud hi dekh lo!

As I went further up towards 2018-2019, I saw the bold lip colours being swapped for light pinks, corals and nudes. Itâs very evident that the actress stopped wearing lipstick shades that she liked (most of which were bright pink colours) and started wearing nudes. No, thanks to Ranbir Kapoor.
If there was any doubt Ranbir Kapoor is just like all the other misogynistic, patriarchal and controlling men, our doubts have been cleared. His problematic behaviour may seem cute to many of us because weâve been raised and conditioned into believing that itâs normal for men to display such problematic behaviour.

Such misogynist and controlling actions are always brushed under the carpet under the guise of love but itâs not love. Itâs not okay for a man to ask his girlfriend or date to âwipe offâ her lipstick because HE LIKES her natural lip colour. Toh apne lips dekh na! Itâs not okay for someone to make a woman do something because he likes it.
