The glitz and glamour of fashion and entertainment world often blinds us to such an extent that we forget the people who are responsible for making our favourite stars and supermodels look the way they do when it's show time.

It is thanks to the hours of hard work and innovation that beauty experts and make up artists put in, that we we get an enhanced experience of movies and fashion shows, and stay up to date with international standards. Thus, Indian Beauty and Makeup (IBM) Awards remains one of the pioneering award shows in India that gives these unsung heroes their due acknowledgement.

This year?s chapter was a black tie evening that brought together Divyanka Tripathi, Harshali Zine, Singer Purva Mantri, Aakarshika Goyal, and other big names in the industry.

?These are the talents that create the characters we see on screen,? said Tripathi. ?Hand picked from a bevy of over a thousand nominees, these winners were curated by the special jury of Indian Beauty Awards 2015.?

Speaking on the importance of giving due credit to make up artists, television actress Zine said, ?Finding good hair and make-up artists is very crucial for our work as they help us understand our best look for various occasions and are updated with the latest Red Carpet Trends. I am sure the winners will be the ones who stole the spotlight with their craft this year.?

Apart from the awards to the best in hair and makeup artists, the evening also had some special awards for persons and companies for outstanding contributions to the industry.
