Back to cool! As we make the transition back to a post-summer routine, work or school, our makeup looks follow suit. Trends make a progression from the summer pastels and neutrals to transitional colours and warm tones as the Autumn weather settles in. Some beautiful and exciting makeup looks will be all the rage this fall. Two keywords: metals and berries! Here are the deets about Fall 2017:
Eyeshadows In Metals & Brights:
Generously applied metal eyeshadow in bold dark colours such as deep burgundy, gold, silver, gunmetal, copper and orange are super avant garde. The Kat Von D Shade + Light Glimmer Contour Palette is a collection of 12 glimmering neutral shades that, when packed on with a setting spray dampened brush, will capture the metallic look. A high-end palette that will set you back $85 but worth every cent is the Huda Beauty Eyeshadow Palette in the “Rose Gold Edition." This collection features highly pigmented gorgeous Autumn vogue shades in mattes, chrome pressed pearls and 3D metals. These shadows are incredibly blendable and the 3D metals can be swept over other shades to "metalize" them. A great coordinating eyeliner pencil for your water line or for eye contouring that matches with the latest colours is the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in the berry/burgundy colour Alkaline... divine!
Strikingly bold bright pops of colour that range from tropical to even neon, worn in conjunction with darker shades, alone all over the lid, or to highlight the lid crease have been seen on many of the runways for the upcoming season. It may sound a little juvenile, but Pür cosmetics has created a palette full of beautiful blendable brights called My Little Pony, The Movie that perfectly nails this look! Each shadow shade in this somewhat mystical palette is named and modelled after a Pony character. Pinkie Pie, Twilight Sparkle and Magic are examples of some of the names given to these notably high quality and blendable shadows perfectly on-trend for the season. It is okay to regress... this item is a must in your makeup collection!
Spiky & Full Lashes:
Long, "out there" faux lashes both on the top and bottom lash line are hot this season. Lashes will be either very full or spiky and "Twiggy" like. Flawless by Ardell is the company's higher end lash collection made from real Remy hair and offers a range of styles that meet the criteria for the lash looks this season. They are easy to apply, soft and comfortable. I also really like Velour Lashes if you choose to "go faux".
Berry Colored Lips:
Deep dark burgundy and berry coloured lipstick will be fashion-forward this season as well as a pink lip from light to subtle fuchsia. My berry lipstick of choice is by Tom Ford in the shade, Bruised Plum. This is a highly pigmented and luxurious satin lipstick that is the epitome of quality. A striking pink/berry liquid lipstick that will work well for this fall season is Primrose by Burberry. Rimmel's Lasting Finish Lipstick by Kate Moss #30 is a perfect, affordable berry that is bold but not too overpowering due to its slight pink undertone. It really captures the fall lipstick look and is a semi-matte formula that glides on easily and claims to last eight hours. (Meh... long lasting but I wouldn't say that long... Lol). Rimmel says that the product is infused with so-called black diamonds, responsible for the shade's eye catching shine. Since this product only has a number and not a name, I gave it my own descriptive moniker and fondly call it Rimmel in "Manischewitz Concord."
Plum & Peach Blush:
Blushes will have an interesting range this season and are trendy in both Peach and Plum colors. My preferred blushes are both by NARS. Their famous peach colour, Orgasm fits the bill this season. If you are a little bold you may opt for the shade Super Orgasm, which is peachy and more intense as it features gold glitter. Seduction is a perfect plum/berry blendable blush that trendsetters will definitely need to sport this season.
