Hello guys!
Any fall makeup look will bring greater contrast to the features, with deeper colors and jewel tones. Classic fall colors include plums, berries, golds, burgundies, reds, and wines — all the colors of changing leaves.
Below I have modeled a sample fall makeup look — and will explain the color theory behind it!
1) Foundation — Clinique “Even Better”
2) Eyeshadow (Lid) – Flower Beauty Color Play Creme Shadow in “Mum’s the Word” {Rose Gold}
3) Eyeshadow (Crease) – Clinique All About Shadow in “Chocolate-Covered Cherry” {Plum with Subtle Sheen}
4) Blush – Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-hour Blush in “Blushing Bride” {Sparkling Berry}
5) Lipstick – Nars Lipstick in “Scarlet Empress” {Wine/Mulberry}
6) Eyeliner – L’Oreal Infallible 24-Hour Lacquer Liner in “Blackest Black”
7) Mascara – L’Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes Excess Mascara in “Blackest Black”
A review of color theory will explain this eye look — and enable you to create any eyeshadow or makeup look you desire!
Contrasts are pleasing to the eye. Colors are divided into WARM and COOL shades, and the contrast between these two constitute an essential element of beauty.
WARM Shades (Earth Tones)
Browns
Reds
Oranges (including coral)
Yellow (including gold)
COOL Shades (Jewel Tones)
Blues
Purples
Pinks
Green is NEUTRAL.
So if you play with this concept, you can pair these colors, particularly those opposite one another on the color wheel, to create striking makeup looks! For example, in this look, I have paired a warm-toned rose gold shadow (on the lid) with a cool-toned plum shadow (in the crease):
The Diva is beautiful!!!!
Gorgeous!
