5 Faves: Autumn-Hued Eyeshadows (Cool-Toned Edition)

Autumn doesn’t have to mean only warm-toned eyeshadows–there are cooler hues found during the season. Try this these types of colors for a smokier vibe instead:

  1. Makeup Geek Rockstar — an iridescent beige
  2. Makeup Geek High Wire — a bright, silvery-purple
  3. Make Up For Ever S556 — a medium taupe
  4. MAC Fathoms Deep — a shimmery, dark purple
  5. theBalm #27 — a neutral, dark purple

Some of the shades I really look forward to wearing in fall are:
Stila La Douce and Grace
Cargo Yukon (a great shade all year)
Inglot 420 and 434 (both Pearl finishes)
MAC Silver Dawn and Stolen Moment (both now permanent in the Extra Dimension finish)

and I’m loving the 2 new fall quads I recently got – Chanel Tisse d’automne and MAC Posh Pedigree. Both are pretty much cool to neutral with 1 warmer shade in the Chanel quad.

Even though I only own the MUFE one, I really do still love MAC Fathoms Deep, too. I have a few cooler toned faves for fall myself, including MAC Satin Taupe and Handwritten (sort of cool-ish, no?), Nars Calisto, Nyx Smoke And Mirrors, and quite a few shades in my Naked 2 and Naked Smoky as well. But I still gravitate towards warmer shades a bit more!
