Fall in Love

What better way to start a new season, then by "falling" in love with all things fall?

Favorite Look: A shimmered eye with some liquid liner, just at the top, and using a light blush with an almost rose glow, and most importantly putting all the focus on your red lips...

Another way of welcoming the new season with your make up is to use a deep pink or almost plum lip color with a sheer gloss and contrasting the look with your eyes by complementing shades such as a raspberry pink with a hint of gold...Welcome a new season with golds, browns, and lots of red!

A Case of the Blues

Blue is part of the purple color family and another favorite of mine. Regardless of skin tone, you can mix/match a variety of blues to enhance your eyes, eye color, or overall look. MAC cosmetics has a blue eyeliner called Navy Stain and its absolutely lovely. It mixes a hint of silver with blue, to make your eyes pop...

You can use the liner at the bottom of your eyes by itself or mix with a black eye pencil and liquid black liner at the top. You can even mix blue shadow with a cream base and keep your lips a pale pink to have the focus be just your eyes.

For the bold & daring, you can mix lavender shadow with a teal/blue base and line the bottom of your eye with a blue liner, being sure to keep your lips super simple with just some neutral gloss...

The Faux Lash Movement

The affect of a few lashes is a powerful tool for your overall look...

Lash styles vary between natural, dramatic, and drag queen, but it's important you chose a style that it's tailored to fit your eye shape as well as the look you are going for...

Purple Rain

I think part of the reason I love it, because the color itself isn't seasonal, you can wear purple shadow year round and play with different color combinations...

I have a secret obsession with Urban Decay: Stalker. I have had it for years, and it mixes a touch of lavender purple, with hints of silver glitter. You can mix & match to keep just the shadow, or combine with a black or navy blue to accent the color...
