Aww yes! It’s fall and I am all gobsmacked over the fabulous beauty trends coming over the wire. There were so many to choose from, but keeping you fabulous women in mind I chose these six trends.

Cobalt Blu

 

Blue is great but cobalt gives it pizzazz! And I do mean PIZZAZZ!! Want to give your face a shock, add some cobalt liner to the bottom lash line or a cobalt shadow to your lid and smoke it out with a black or navy blue. And if you really want to go the distance, paint those lovely lashes with cobalt mascara!

 

Cobalt Blu
1. Make Up Forever, Aqua Eyes Eyeliner Majorelle Blue , $18
2. Zoeva Creme Liner, Denim Bar, $10
4. NYX Eyeliner, Purple, $6
5.  Sephora Collection, Full Action Mascara Blue, $12

Golden Child

 

Be Oscar ready with this golden trend usually relegated to the days of summer. We just couldn’t get enough of gold and her cousins copper and bronze. Whether it is as a cream shadow, a loose pigment or an eyeliner, this fall, mimic the changing tones of the trees and live life like it’s golden.

 

Golden Child--Fall 2012
Make Up For Ever , 25,605 KRW
MAC Cosmetics , 20,595 KRW /
LORAC eyeshadow, 21,150 KRW
Make Up For Ever , 20,040 KRW
Dolce&Gabbana lip makeup
Dolce&Gabbana gold makeup /

Smut–Smoky Brown

 

I don’t care what anyone says, being smutty is sexy and smoky brown eyes is just as fab as black smoky, I would venture to say that it is even classier. This look you can war during the day without looking overdone. To make the brown smoky on dark skin add black eyeshadow or eyeliner to the lid near the lash line. Blend and smear mid way up the lid. Add loads of mascara. Also use the black liner to line the lower lash water line. Et voîla, magic!

 

Smoky Brown Eyes--Fall 2012
1. MAC Cosmetics , 20,550 KRW
2. Iman tiger eye makeup, 8,885 KRW
3. Chantecaille , 33,320 KRW
4. Stila , 8,885 KRW
5. Vincent Longo shimmer eyeshadow, 26,655 KRW
6. Wet n Wild wet n wild, 5,305 KRW
7.  Kevyn Aucoin shimmer eyeshadow, 31,100 KRW

Emerald Isle

 

The rumor around town is that everyone thinks that smoky eyes means dark slinky black eyes but in actuality, “smoky” is a technique not a color. So try this fabulous technique with hunter green and give your beauty regimen a new and sexy twist.

 

 

Smoky Green Eyes- Fall 2012
2. NARS Cosmetics, Night Porter Eyeshadow, $24
3. NYX, Jumbo Liner-Green, $6

Black Cherry Lips

 

Cherry stained lips. Dark and moody, yet sensual. A throw back to a time of indulgence and carefree fun. The jazz age is making a big comeback this fall with this fabulous trend. Try it on for size. Its a great way to break into color.

 

 

Black Cherry Lips
1. Tom Ford , Black Orchid Lipstick, $48
2. Giorgio Armani , Deep Chianti Lip Wax, $27
3.  NARS Cosmetics , Russian Doll Lipstick, $24
4. Dolce&Gabbana, Amethyst Lip Gloss, $24
5. Iman, Wild Thing lip stick, $10
6. OCC Makeup, Vintage Lip Tar, $14

Brightly Matte

So you don’t like glossy bright colors? Well, this is the trend for you. Bright and matte is sexy and classic, but be cautious, some colors can look chalky if you don’t pick the right one. And make sure to put down a lip primer to keep your lips for feeling as dry as a desert.

Brightly Matte Lipstick Trend 2012
2. NARS Lipstick, Heat Wave  , $24
3. Iman, Sensuous Lip Stain, $8
4. Hourglass Cosmetics, RivieraMatte Lipstick, $38
5. Debenhams Lipstick, Cotton Candy, $25

Thanks for this article! I am going to order an emerald green palate to wear later this fall. There are some glittery shades which do well for holiday parties and such...

 BlackWomenDeserveBetter So am I! I purchased a MAC lip liner that Tanisha recommended - Night Moth. It's beautiful for Fall/Winter, just like the black cherry.
