Top Fall Makeup Trends

Want to know what's sexy this season when it comes to makeup? These looks are hot off the runway. They'll definately get you noticed this fall. 

BLACK CHERRY LIPSTICK

Traditional red lipstick takes a dark and romantic turn this season. In fact, some of our favorite shades are so deep they border on black. Apply the color directly from the tube for the most dramatic effect. And make sure to dust a skin-warming blush or bronzer on your cheeks to avoid getting into creepy vampire territory.

APRÈS-SKI CHEEKS

Whether your cheeks are flushed from a day at the slopes or a night at the lodge, it doesn't really matter: The illusion of healthy, rosy cheeks is just plain sexy. Stick to cream blushes—they're easier to build up and diffuse, and they tend to have a translucent quality that allows you to see the natural texture of your skin underneath.

GRAPHIC BLACK CAT-EYES

 Warning: This is not liner for the timid. Dramatic swoops and exaggerated shapes painted on with liquids, gels, and pure black pigments characterized the coolest cat-eyes this season. For a night out, we suggest trying Brigitte Bardot–meets–Cleopatra eyes  (you can't get much sexier than those two). First, draw the outline of the shape you want with black pencil and fill it in with black shadow. For a less intense version, a thick stroke of black liquid liner will do.

GOLD ACCENTS

Show off your angelic side with delicate touches of gold on the eyes and cheeks. Trace a gold liner around the eyes , or dust a soft white-gold shadow all over your lids.  Gold also gives skin a candlelit effect when dabbed on the cheekbones.

PICTURE-PERFECT SKIN

 No one has a flawless complexion, but with the right amount of coverage and strategic highlighting, you can fake one. The important thing is for skin to not look like an oil slick, so pick a luminizer without too much shimmer or pigment.  Dab it around the outer corners of the eyes and down along the cheekbones. Don't forget to add a bit in the Cupid's bow.
