How do you pull together a great look for fall? Explore some of the latest beauty trends in color and style, and learn how to apply these trends to your beauty routine. These tips are easy enough for moms both on the go and on a budget.
Eye Appeal
Eye looks for fall are all about turning heads — and making it look effortless.
All Aglow
Gold highlights look great on post-summer sun-kissed skin. Apply golden eye shadow to brow bones and the inner corner of your eyes. This is a great daytime look.
Define your eyes with brown eyeliner on both the top and bottom lash lines.
Sweep on brown or clear mascara to warm up the look.
Natural Beauty
Earth tones like bronze, chocolate, burnt orange and evergreen are popular fall eye-shadow colors. Try a cream-based shadow — it leaves more color on the lid.
Curl lashes to add volume to your fringe.
Complement these eye-shadow colors with brown eyeliner and mascara — it’s a softer look than using black.
Go Big With Eyeliner
Use eyeliner to create a dramatic effect. Experiment with lining lower lids and the inner corners of your eyes. Try liquid liner for precision with staying power, or smudge pencil liner for a smoky effect.
Make every lash count. Apply a lash conditioner before sweeping on a few coats of black mascara.
Create Mystery
Go dark with gray, purple or even black eye shadow. Choose carefully depending on your eye color, and apply sparingly.
Apply matching liquid eyeliner to your lids, just above the lash line.
Blast your lash curler for a few seconds with your hair dryer to warm it up. Curl your lashes. Then, apply two coats of high-volume black mascara.
Lip Love
Fall’s fashion-forward trends include high-powered colors for your pout.
Make a Statement
Brick red, deep plum and bright pink are big hits with celebrities this fall.
Carefully line your lips using a liner one shade darker than your lipstick. Then, apply your lip color, and carry it with you for quick touch-ups.
Finish with clear lip gloss.
Balance the Look
If you used bold eyeliner, eye shadow and mascara on your eyes, tone down your lips with a nude shade. If you used gold highlighter, pick a matte finish for your lips. If you didn’t use metallic colors on your eyes, choose a gloss.
Nail It
Fall’s hot nail shades follow eye-shadow tones; you can even match your nail color to your eye shadow.
Green, bronze, silver, navy and deep plum are popular shade choices.
If you choose a dark color, file your nails square and short so that they withstand housework and your busy schedule.
Time-saving tip: Paint your nails before you shower so that any mistakes wash away.
Fall Foundation
Fall’s bold eye and lip trends should be contrasted with a matte, natural foundation. Couple light, cream-based foundations with translucent powder. Mineral foundation will give you a pure, natural finish, too.
Light Blush
This season, go easy on the blush. Lightly apply peach, earth tones or coral blush — or skip it all together.
