It’s one of the most beautiful seasons of the year. The leaves are changing and the weather is getting cold outside. With the season changing, that means your makeup routine and looks are to. Here are a few makeup looks that are sure to help you get into the fall spirit!

Look #1: Brown Smokey Eye 
Smokey eyes’ are definitely a go-to look when going out or for date night; but for the fall season you can definitely switch up the look by doing a brown smokey eye. This provides a subtle way to bring a bit of drama to your eyeshadow while using little to no product. To achieve this look you will need a palette that has an array of brown tones. Depending on your preface you can start with a light brown/orange shade as your transition color, then proceed to pack on your brown and continue to blend until you get the desired look you want. To finish off the look you can add a shimmer shade in your inner corner.

Look #2: Pumpkin Spice 

With fall, comes fall themed drinks- one of my favorite drinks to get a Starbucks is their “pumpkin spice latte”. That is what inspired this look, in order to achieve this look you will need to create a cut crease. Start off with an orange/yellow shade in your crease, then proceed to blend out the color. Directly under your transition shade add a brighter yellow shade to help brighten up the look.Then you will need to add a deep brown for your outer corner in a pressing motion. Once that is fully blended begin to cut your crease (only cut to the middle of your lid) and proceed to add your lid shade. Now you can pack on a shimmer shade (preferably with copper or green tones). 

Lipstick Colors:

Along with eyeshadow looks, you can incorporate different lipstick colors that will help amplify your looks. Colors such as: red, burgundy, brown, metallic brown, and even a mauve pink. Adding these colors are sure to make your makeup looks pop!

Here are some of my favorite fall palette and lipstick shades:

Suggested Makeup Palettes: The Morphe 25B Bronzed Artistry palette, Morphe 35F Fall into Frost Edition, Juvia’s Place The Warrior, Orange You Glad? (colourpop cosmetics), The Catrice x Men Bronzed AF palette

Suggested Lipsticks: Lime Crime (Wicked-Blood) matte lipstick, MAC lipstick (Whirl), Limbo Ultra Matte Liquid lipstick (colourpop cosmetics), Dose of Colors Matte liquid lipstick in the shade (Chocolate Wasted) 

Fall season is known for its colorful leaves and trees, such as scenery helps to create different eyeshadow looks. I know for me personally looking up “autumn in the woods” or “fall colors” on Pinterest helps me create creative makeup looks. Now run to your nearest Ulta or Sephora and get ready to slay this fall season !F
