Fall Makeup You Should be Wearing

When the season changes, it’s a great time to change up your makeup routine. You don’t have to make a huge investment and completely overhaul your makeup routine. You can switch out just a few colors and products to freshen up your look. Here is some fall makeup you should be wearing to stay on trend and up to date!

Lips

An easy way to spruce up your fall look is by adding a fun new lip color! Spring and summer are great for wearing light and airy pinks. Fall is great for deep autumn colors! Think of all the different colors of the changing leaves. Oranges, browns, magentas, reds…that’s what you want to be wearing!

Cheeks

Don’t forget your cheeks! Blush is a great way to add a pretty flush to your face. Instead of the light pinks of summer, reach for darker hues with more contrast. Fall is a time of coziness. Days spent out at the pumpkin patches in the crisp air. Rosy cheeks and apple pie!

Eyeshadow

Another great way to switch up your fall makeup is by changing out some eyeshadow colors. Reach for warm browns and cozy colors. Colors that are warm and dark. Colors that make you think of being curled up in a comforter reading a book and drinking hot coco!

You don’t need a ton of new makeup to freshen up your look! Just add a few new shades to your custom compact and you can get a whole new look!

Simple Fall Eyeshadow Looks

Fall is such a cozy time of year! I love the changing fall leaves, the crisp autumn air, the beginning of the holidays, and the yummy pumpkin treats! It’s also a fun time of year for fashion and beauty! In the makeup scene, fall makeup tends to be darker and more dramatic than the spring and summer months. It can get daunting trying to come up with new ways to do your makeup and trying to stay on top of the trends. So, we’re here to help take that stress away and are showing you a few Fall eyeshadow looks! You’re welcome

Amazing Eyeshadows

In case you didn’t know, Maskcara has some pretty amazing eyeshadows! The colors, the pigment, and the size are all top notch, top quality, and top of the line! For real. Each eyeshadow tin holds 5g of goodness whereas competitors’ eyeshadows only hold 1.5-3g for more money! Not bad. Not bad at all!

Fall Colors

Great eyeshadow colors to wear in the fall time are browns, purples, greens, dark blues…any deeper and darker colors. It’s all about the amount you put on and the colors you choose. For these 2 simple fall looks, I chose browns and purple.

Fall Eyeshadow Looks

Bronze is a great fall color! Maskcara has some great bronze colors to choose from, but for this look I’m using Bright Eyes as the show stopper. First, I took my I Shadow Everything Brush and applied Bubba to the main part of my eyelid with the fluffy end of the brush. I used the smaller end of the brush to apply Bright Eyes in my crease. In a V-like shape I patted the brush along the outer edge of my eye along the lashes and then into my crease. Make sure to blend by wiping back and forth until the color is married. Then I took Sabrina and added it on my brow bone and inner part of my eye to add a bright highlight. Using the Mutlitasker Brush, I took Emerald City and applied it to my lashes area to mimic eye liner. For a more dramatic look, you can use the smaller end of your I Shadow Everything Brush to add more color.

This next look is a simpler and more neutral look. You can always add more color for more drama. I first applied Bend and Snap to the main portion of my eyelid with the fluffy part of the I Shadow Everything Brush. Then I took Kin and brushed the purple color in a windshield wiper motion, back and forth in the crease of my eyelid. I took Mama and blended the colors together and applied to my brow bone area. Using my Multitasker Brush, I applied Trust to my lash line to line the area.

Easy peasey! You can’t go wrong with these colors. If you’re nervous about adding too much color, work in layers. You can always add more or wipe away what you don’t like.

Did you know that when you buy 4 eyeshadow colors at once, you can get a free square compact?! Tis true. I love a bargain! And as with every Maskcara compact, it is magnetic so the eyeshadow singles can be switched around, replaced, and moved as needed. It’s pretty cool!

Fall Eyeshadow Looks

These colors in this look can really be used any time of the year. But since it’s fall, I went a little heavier with the colors to create a more dramatic eye. I took my I Shadow Everything Brush and used the fluffy side to apply Oak on the main part of my eyelid, just until the eyeball ends. I like to tap and press the color onto my lid. Then I took Pup and blended from the end of Oak to just below my eyebrow. With the smaller side of the brush, I applied Trust in a V-like shape from my lash line to my eyelid crease. Then with the fluffy side of the brush I wiped back and forth and blend blend blend! I topped the look off by adding Sabrina to the brow bone and inner part of my eye. The key is to blend! You can add more as you go and continue to wipe and blend until you achieve the look you want.

This next look is more simple and subtle. You can apply the colors heavier to achieve a more dramatic look. I took the I Shadow Everything Brush and applied Basic to the main part of my eyelid. Then I took Kin and wiped the purple shade in a windshield wiper motion right in my eyelid crease, back and forth, making sure to blend. Stardust was a perfect shimmer to add to the top of my brow bone and the inner part of my eye. With the Multitasker Brush, I used the small end and applied Salem along my lashes to add some liner. If you wanted a more dramatic look, you could apply the black color with the small end of the I Shadow Everything Brush for more color or a smokey look.

Easy peasey! You can’t go wrong with these colors. If you’re nervous about adding too much color, work in layers. You can always add more or wipe away what you don’t like.
