This fall expect a resurgence of makeup looks from two decades ago. From lips to eyes, we’ll show you the biggest makeup trends for the season, and just how to wear them.
Metallic eye shadow
You can never go wrong with a classic smoky eye. This season, beauty pros are reinventing the look with metallic eye shadow. Lately silver and gold shades have been most popular in achieving the heavy metal look. The ‘Naked Smoky’ by Urban Decay at Sephora (2407 St Louis Galleria, 314-863-2600, sephora.com) offers an array of options. Opt for silver hue, “slanted” or mix “radar” with “dirty sweet” for a golden bronze look. Wear a nude lipstick to complete your look.
Bold eyeliner
Dramatic eyeliner was a huge hit during the fall and winter runway collections. In addition to lined eyes, expect to see graphic colors and a stark contrast from the conventional way to dress the eyes. This rich navy liquid eyeliner by Chanel at Saks Fifth Avenue (1 Plaza Frontenac, 314-567-9200, saks.com) plays off the bold eyeliner trend, packing an intense punch of color and shine. Create an exaggerated winged eye and flush your cheeks with a pale pink blush for an edgy, yet fresh look.
‘Earthy’ lips
Take a trip to the 1990s with this fall’s lip trends. Along with berry shades, Earth tone lips are making a comeback. From beige to dark brown, this trend provides an alternative look to the wine colored lip that’s been synonymous with autumn. Antique Velvet from MAC (Plaza Frontenac, 1701 S. Lindbergh, 314-989-9017, maccosmetics.com) is an intense chocolate brown shade with some serious color payoff, making it the perfect statement hue for the season. Keep it simple by finishing your look with a touch of bronzer and mascara.
