Back to school season means the cool days of fall are right around the corner, and now is the perfect time to make the seasonal transition in the makeup department. The days of shimmering silver eyeshadow and bronzer of summer are giving way to a fresh new lineup of colors and bold color schemes for the eyes. Here’s a preview of some of the hottest eye shadow shades to stock up on this season:
Purple
You may have noticed the flood of purple clothing and accessories in the fall collections of your favorite designer or retailer, and purple is also one of the leading makeup color trends for the season. Experiment with deep purple shades , plum and ashy grey-purple tones to find the best match for your skin color and eye color.
Rich Brown
Browns and earthy colors are always in style for fall season, and you can sport a neutral look for the season with a rich brown eyeshadow and brown mascara. If you want to create the smoky eye look, blend the brown with a touch of grey and black eyeliner.
Red Berry
Rich red berry shades aren’t just for the lips. You can give your eye makeup a boost of color with a dark pink, magenta or dark fuschia eye shadow paired with black eyeliner and black mascara. Just keep the rest of your makeup as simple as possible to balance out this bold look.
Gold
A splash of glittering gold on the eyes is a great way to warm up your look this fall, and you can create a dramatic look by mixing the shadow with some eyeshadow primer or even water so that it creates a more vivid finish. This is a great match for special occasions and parties, but you can pull off a ‘lite’ version by day.
Dark Green
This is the season to stick with the bold and dramatic color palettes, and dark green is one way to create an eye-catching look. Think deep forest greens and green with a hint of blue to create a bold, sultry effect this season.
From rich browns and gold to dark greens and purple, you have an array of colors to choose from this fall season. Stock up your beauty bag with some of these hot colors for your seasonal makeover.
