What’s your go-to fall makeup look? Share yours!
It’s all about the bold lip or a smokier eye. I love burgundies, berries, and wines.

For eye makeup I like using a nude champagne colour on my lid and in the inner corner, a dusty purple in my crease, black gel liner on my upper lashline, my favourite highlight (CG French Vanilla) on the brow bone and black mascara. For lips it’s a nude-pink lipliner, then either a nude, peach or pink gloss. Though since it’s back-to-school time and hectic, it sometimes ends up being something shimmery on the lid, a highlight, mascara and lipbalm. But I do try 🙂
On lids, neutral colors : ivory and brown, a touch of gold or copper…
On lips : coral like chrystak coral (Estee Lauder)
On cheeks : Orgasm
An some eyeliner brown or dark khaki !

bye!
I’m all about dramatic smokey eyes and a nude mouth. Wait a minute… Actually I love wearing that any season!
I’m planning on wearing MAC Old Gold Pigment with either subtle eyeliner, or a winged out cat eye, and bold lips. Pretty excited to wear it, but of course the weather is being strange and now it feels like summer. Stupid LA weather.
I haven’t developed a go-to fall makeup look yet. But the look I had on today definitely could be one.
My Eyes were simple: I lined my upper lash line with GOSH Velvet Touch Eyeliner in Black Ink. Coated my lashes with Maybelline Full n’Soft Mascara.
The “Fall” part is using NARS Blush “Sin” (a muted berry with shimmer) and finished with GOSH Soft n’Shine Lip balm in “Perfect Plum.”
Too bad bold lips only make my lips looks smaller so I don’t go w/that ‘trend’– I just tend to wear more lipsticks than glosses for a fuller coverage and pinker blushes versus corals.
pale porcelain complexion. deep berry/plum blushes. dark, defined eyebrows. dark, bold, and vampy lip colors. rusty/earth tone eyeshadows. I CAN’T WAIT!!!
I don’t have one. :0. I have go-tos for holiday and summer…I think it’s time I came up with something. I’m pretty sure the lips will be wine/berry.
the non-smokey smokey eye. just semi-sheer platin eye-shadow on the lid and that blended well + optional a matte highlighter. eyeline just with black e/s. it smokes out the eye but still it looks fresh and without giving it the “made up” look of a classic smokey eye.
for lips I opt for reds in all forms
Purple smoke eye or neutral eye with bold darker lips.
smokier eyes and a darker nude , sometimes I wear a bolder and darker blusher
I’m going for either a heavy lined lid with natural skin and pale lipstick or flawless skin, neutral eyes and deep berry lips!
I love the new bold and deep shades!
I think the fall is the time of the year I’m using the most make up. Much eyemakeup, and strong brows, or bright red lips. But not so much glitter and shimmer
I don’t tend to shake up my look too much based on season though if I had to pinpoint anything I do gravitate a little more towards a smokey berry eye.
Mine is just foundation and concealer, mascara and strong lip…
A darker neutral look using macs nylon cork n tempting to create a subtle but darker look.
I like to wear warm shadow on the lid & blend up with some smudged into the lower lashline… Like chocolate brown pigment of cranberry by MAC all over the lid & lower lashline. I usually use richer color blushes, but I usually stick to a nudish lip all year around.
I usually go with browns or pinks. I’ll use a beige all over my lid, then put a brown or dark pink in the crease and a lighter shade on the lid.
Gleam,Paradisco and Coppering
This year its gold and blue. Dont k now why but I am REALLY loving it.
i love contouring during fall and i also love darker lips!
I love my rich browns and red-purples. For the face, I like to keep a tinted moisturizer with some loose powder to set it. And I always wear NARS Deep Throat blush on the cheeks. Doesn’t matter what season it is. And I love sheer berries and pinks
I’m with you, Christine. I’m actually looking at MAC Morange lipstick as my 2010 Fall bold lippie. Hope I can pull it off.
I don’t really have a “go to” look for any season, since I rarely do the same look twice. That said, in falls I usually prefer smoky eyes, dark red, purple, brown lips, or sometimes orange/gold shadows. I don’t know if that is really visible though, seeing my day to day makeup doesn’t really change.
We Have already had fall this year but I wore plums and reds maroons and dark pinks;) eyes were smoky with bribes plums and oranges cheeks were sculpted with bronzer and a plum blush. Fall is great fir dramatic looks to match ur sweaters
Smokey brown eyes with a nude lipstick. I tend to favor:
Eyes: (MAC) Era or Modelette all over the lid, (Bobbi Brown) Taupe in the crease and (Bobbi Brown) Mink on the outer v of the lid. Dark Brown slightly winged liner on the upper lid and on the lower waterline. Finished with a good coat of Dior Diorshow Iconic mascara in black.
Lips: (MAC) BBQ or Hodgepodge (discontinued) liner, MAC Fresh Brew l/s
I love a tarnished gold/bronze eye with a berry or wine shade on the lip for fall.
My go to for a natural fall/winter look is a pink cheek (my favourite is Tippy blush by mac with a light hand, and porcelain pink msf over it), and a pink lip ( I like mac Bombshell lipstick with a clear gloss over the top) and a very neutral eye, it makes my pale skin look like it’s just flushed from being out in the cold.
My five-minute look these days is MAC Dark Soul all over the lid (the shimmer makes it look like I blended in a darker outer and crease colour even though I just sweep it on with a 239 brush), Naked pigment on the brow and Currant lip liner with Ruby Woo on top.
I love to do a soft neutral eye with plum, purple or berry lips. Today I used a few of the lighter shades from UD’s Naked palette on the eyes, with Cunning lipstick and Lap Of Luxury lipglass from the Fabulous Felines collection on the lips.
I also like to go the other way and do a smokey eye with a nudish lip. I especially like greys and cool taupes for smokey eyes in autumn, like MAC’s Copperplate, Sweet Sienna and Smoke & Diamonds.
Usually a smoky purple (or sometimes dark green) eye, nude rose cheeks and a subtle beige or soft berry lip.
Though I am LOVING metallic taupe and matte mauve at present, especially paired with shimmery deep chocolate grown or gunmetal grey, even though it is spring here!
Smokey eye time for me
in the fall time I usually go for a bolder lip more often than a smokier eye
I like to wear a bright red, Or a burgundy lip with long voluminus lashes. And a little highlighting to my inner corner.
Without a doubt, smokey eyes in different colors, especially bronze and purple, accompanied with a nude lip (MAC fresh brew)!
I love pulling out my dark greens and teal eyeshadows! Urban Decay Mildew or MAC Steamy are great ones!
Oooh, this is perfect because I just got done getting all of my fall make up ready. 🙂 I love darker lips, like dark, neutral pinks, reds, and even a little bit of purples. For eyes, I am loving the purples, and dark browns, blacks, and grays. 🙂
Letting my tan fade.
Soft eye makeup using cool tone shades like beige, pale pink, taupe, or gray.
Switch lipstick shade from warm pink used during the summer months to a soft pinkish mauve color.
Eyes – Stila Eyeshadows in Dune, Chinois, and Puppy; Brown Mascara
