Your skin tone/coloring: fair/light warm (NC15)
Favorite autumn blush? NARS Madly! It goes with literally everything, but still isn’t plain-Jane boring!
Favorite autumn lip color? That’s such a hard one, I’m going to say Bite Beauty Juniper for a berry lip, and MAC Cosmo for a nude-pink-mauve lip.
Favorite autumn eyeshadow palette? Too Faced Chocolate Bar. The shades in it just remind me of autumn, with the burgundy and the warm browns. It’s not really a palette so much as a foursome, but the Kathleenlights ColourPop quad is very autumnal to me too!
Your skin tone/coloring: Light Medium NW-25
Favorite autumn blush? Hourglass in mood exposure
Favorite autumn lip color? Nars audacious in Anna
Favorite autumn eyeshadow palette? Naked the original
Your skin tone/coloring: between fair and light; cool undertones and warm features
The colors of makeup that I wear aren’t completely dictated by the seasons, but I do lean toward more dark and intense shades in the fall than I do in summer, so some products that I haven’t worn much lately but will soon start wearing more often are:
Favorite autumn blush? IT Cosmetics Magical in Mauve, Hourglass Mood Exposure
Favorite autumn lip color? NARS Fanny, Urban Decay Venom and Manic, ILIA Pink Moon, Too Faced So Berry Sexy, Clinique Soft Matte Plum
Favorite autumn eyeshadow palette? will bring back out Kat Von D Interstellar; will continue to use my current favorites — my custom Make Up For Ever palettes as well as the MUFE 9-pan palettes 1 and 2 and the Studio Case, also the Viseart neutral matte, cool matte, and bridal satin palettes; considering purchasing Urban Decay Urban Spectrum, Naked Smoky, and/or Vice 4 for something new.
Your skin tone/coloring: Fair, cool-toned
Favorite autumn blush? Newest – UD Rapture; long time favourite – MAC Conjure Up or Hushabye (I think both were LE or were discontinued)
Favorite autumn lip color? Guerlain Habit Rouge or MAC Red Dwarf (LE)
Favorite autumn eyeshadow palette? My 2 new ones – Chanel Tisse d’automne and MAC Posh Pedigree. Before getting these, it would have been Dior Bonne Etoile from 2 years ago, I think.
Thanks for reminding me to dig out my red dwarf! Such a good call.
Your skin tone/coloring: very pale, neutral to warm
Favorite autumn blush? Clinique Fig Pop, MAC Peaches
Favorite autumn lip color? NARS Golshan, NARS Audacious Leslie, or Dior Bellissima
Favorite autumn eyeshadow palette? Original UD Naked Basics (with all that brick/berry on the lips, need some balance on the eye! )
Your skin tone/coloring: Deep Dark NW50
Favorite autumn blush? The same blush that I use year round…lol…Toasted Almond by Black Radiance (or MAC’s Raizin)
Favorite autumn lip color? Anything Berry…Milani Lipstick Sangria, Milani Liquid Lipstick Embrace and Flirt, Wet N Wild Sugar Plum Fairy, Calvin Klein LipLock, MAC Rebel and Heaux
Favorite autumn eyeshadow palette? The one I created with Coastal Scents hot pots or Anastasia Amrezy Palette
Oooh, WnW Sugar Plum Fairy is a really good one!
Your skin tone/coloring: Very fair, NW-5ish
Favorite autumn blush? I think I’ll be using theBalm Balm Desert a lot
Favorite autumn lip color? Rusty browns, berries, and mauves. KVD Cathedral, MAC Paramount, Revlon Rosewine, MAC New York Apple, Nars Audrey.
Favorite autumn eyeshadow palette? Sleek Vintage Romance
Your skintone/coloring: Medium w/ olive undertones MAC C4.5 Studio Fix Liquid foundation, deep brunette, teal green eyes w/ gold flecks.
Favorite Autumn blush: MAC Burnt Pepper or ColourPop Cruel Intentions. Love both!
Favorite Autumn lipstick: MAC VG I, UD After Dark or MAC Royally Riotous. Oh, and MAC Marque for EVERY season!
Favorite Autumn eyeshadow palette: UD Vice 3 ( those warm, vivid fall leave shades! ) and Naked Smoky, and also Lorac Unzipped. I tend to go either warm or deep, dark and smoky during autumn/winter!
Your skin tone/coloring: NC15/20
Favorite autumn blush? Depending on the finish I want, either Tarte Exposed or Hourglass Mood Exposure
Favorite autumn lip color? I’m dipping back into MAC’s Plumful, but when some of the 90’s ColourPop stuff arrives around Friday I will probably be going for some of those. I really want to pick up Charlotte Tilbury’s Glastonberry.
Favorite autumn eyeshadow palette? I don’t really have a palette, more like my MAC palette with whatever is in it, and some of the ColourPop 90’s shadows. Though if I HAD to pick on it would probably be the Too Faced Natural Matte palette or the Naked 2.
Your skin tone/coloring: Very fair with neutral undertones; magenta hair; hazel/green eyes.
I don’t tend to be very seasonal with my makeup, and I wear different things every day.
Favorite autumn blush? Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge in Blushed Rose: It counteracts the “corpse face” that vampy lipsticks can give me. I also love: The Balm’s Cabana Boy, Tarte Embraced, Clinique Fig Pop and Cola Pop, Sleek Blushx3 Palette in Pink Sprint, UD Rapture.
Favorite autumn lip color? Nyx Wicked Lippies in Trickery and Coldhearted. Lately I’m really into Nyx Suede Cream in Stone Fox and Jcat Pout-holic in Candy Man. Performance Colors Black Rose (PC is longer in business, unfortunately.) Anything red, berry, wine or deep purple.
Favorite autumn eyeshadow palette? I’ve been wearing the Too Faced Vegas Nay Star Dust palette nearly every day since I got it, and I think it’s perfect for fall. Also: Coastal Scents Revealed 3, Go Palette Beijing, and the Winterberry Palette; Too Faced Chocolate Bar; Tarte Tartelette.
Ack! I left off the Wet N Wild Comfort Palette. A classic.
Great choice, Rachel!
Classic! The Vanity palette too!
Ooo, that’s useful to know about the Bobbi Brown rouge. I will have to go look at that!
Skin: fair neutral; dark brown eyes; dark red hair.
I’m not much for wearing makeup ‘in season’, really; I’ll wear whatever feels good on any given day. I mean, I gravitate towards copper, rose gold, red, and purple year round, lol.
Autumn blush: my new Laura Gellar Plumberry.
Autumn lips: MAC Auburn pencil, Stila Magnificent Metals Garnet lipgloss, CK Velvet.
Autumn e/s palette: Chantecaille Diamonds trio (LE), Tom Ford (I forget the name but the one that has a copper sparkle in the quad), and Neve Baroque quad.
The Coastal Scents Winterberry Palette is amazing – especially for the price! Many of the eyeshadows have incredible pigment, go on smooth, and blend easily.
It’s so hard to find an all pink/berry palette, much less one with good pigmentation. It far exceeded my hopes for it. I’m glad I took a chance on it.
I have heard great things about the Vegas Nay Palette. I want a new palette, but I’m torn between the Vegas Nay and the Anastasia Traveler Palette. I’ve heard soooo many great things about that one too…Decisions decisions…
I think with the Vegas Nay, it’s a matter of whether you can tolerate the fallout. It’s more than I expected, but less than the Kat von D Star Studded (my benchmark for “too much fallout for me to handle” eyeshadows).
I’m still thinking about getting the Anastasia Traveler Palette. I love the colors in it. Plus it’s getting stellar reviews even from people who weren’t crazy about the Artist’s palette. (I liked the Artist’s Palette, though. I recently took it with me on my anniversary trip.)

Favorite autumn eyeshadow palette? Don’t really have one…. I tend to do whatever I feel that for my eyes, sometimes full eye look or just mascara and tightlining. But I do love to use Bobbi brown single eyeshadow in Camel, or a matte bronzer in the crease a lot during autumn.
I wore Brick o La today…so beautiful, I should never wear any other color in the fall! And the stain it leaves behind on my lips is just as pretty!
Your skin tone/coloring: fair/light warm (NC15)

Favorite autumn blush? nyx terracotta forever! i use it year round though so…
Favorite autumn lip color? browns/nudes, mauves, and burgundys! i can’t pick just one! i’m excited to use my viva glam iii more often now though, it’s one of my favorite brownish burgundy lipsticks. i also like nyx’s ever lip pencil for everyday use.
Favorite autumn eyeshadow palette? i’m excited to try the colourpop fall shadows i ordered! i don’t know if i have a specific palette, i just like cranberry colors, golds, and browns. i’ll probably still be using my clinique nude palette frequently because it’s so versatile and i can’t live without sahara sun – it’s the prettiest rose gold!
