The Top 3 Fall / Winter Makeup Looks

1. The Pink Flushed Cheek

Apparently, gone is bronzer for winter, and apples of the cheeks placement. It's now pink, and modern. The newest makeup change is the placement of blush, and we're not saying to 'smile' anymore when you apply. Now it's applied with a strong emphasis on the cheekbone. A more elegant look, and really brings out the cheekbones.  To apply, suck in cheeks, and tap from underneath the middle of the eye, going along the top of the bone, and ending up at the temple. Our pressed Mineral Blush in Precious is perfect.

 





2. The Monochromatic

If soft and subtle is more your style, try the new monochromatic look in your makeup. In shades in beige, caramel and sand, the idea is to pick one color and match it in eyes, cheeks and lips. Try Barefoot Natural Mineral Lipstick for a almost there shade to keep lips light in color. But keep the color soft and creamy, to avoid an overall to matte effect. For cheeks, a soft beige like Demure Radiance Blush underneath the cheekbones as a contour gives definition, while eyes are kept nude with Dune Visions Shadow. Place your nude shadow in the crease of the eye only, and finish with a touch of Lush Lash Mascara in Absolute Black on top and bottom.

3. The Dark Wine Lip

 

It's not red. It's not burgundy. Think dark, dark wine. That's the top lip color of choice that was seen on the runways for fall, and it's elegant and dramatic. Keep the rest of the face soft and uncolored, or if you dare, pair it with a dark rimmed eye, either just on top, or both top and bottom lashes for the most dramatic edge. Our Absolute Black Pencil is perfect for this and is available in an all new natural formula.  Keep the lip color with a berry tone, the darker the better.  Try our Pure Lips Natural Mineral Lipstick in Obsession and pair it with Allure Lip liner – also reformulated to be natural.
