Autumn Beauty Forecast: Makeup Trends You’ll Love This Fall Season
We heard you’re ready to enter autumn and so are we! Transition seasons like a pro with curated beauty picks for your perfect fall palette. Prep for fall with transitional colors by adding berry-toned lip shades or metallic eyeshadows along with rosy hues to your rotation. This fall, we expect to play into untraditional metallics and romantic wearable trends that reflect both the cozy and bold ambiance of autumn. This season we’re also feeling extra inspired by our lattes in hand and will be reaching for eyeshadows that reflect rich, earthy tones and inspire natural no-makeup makeup looks. As the leaves start to change, so does our makeup palette. This fall is all about balancing the subtle with the statement. Let’s dive into transitioning your summer staples to richer, deeper shades in your makeup routine.
Berry-Toned, Bold Lip Looks
Deep, berry lips are *falling* your name. Gloss, oil or a classic lipstick? We won’t kiss and tell! Whatever your preference there’s an e.l.f. lip product that’s perfect for you! Similar to last winter, dark and sultry berry shades are coming back this season to add depth and mystery to any look. Don’t forget to also bring out your favorite 90s-inspired dark lip liners to pair with a lighter, glossy finish. To create these looks, start with a defining e.l.f. Cream Glide Lip Liner to shape and fill in lips where needed; its semi-matte finish will help the liner to stay in place all day. Next layer with the e.l.f. Sheer Slick Lipstick for color. You can finish the look here, or add a touch of the Glow Reviver Lip Oil for high effortless shine. If you’re looking for fuller, more-defined lips add a touch of the Pout Clout Lip Plumping Pen for a polished and dimensional finish.
Fun Metallics & Glossy Finishes
A little metallic and gloss goes a long way. This fall we’re embracing fun metallics and glossy finishes, whether you’re getting ready for a night out or any Halloween party. Simply add a touch of glam and edge to any makeup look with metallic or shiny liquid eyeshadows for a multidimensional pop of color. Select from eight shades of our Liquid Metallic Eyeshadow collection that give off pigmented coverage with one swipe, that are also buildable to wear for either day or night. If you lean more toward palettes and pressed formulas, several of the Perfect 10 Eyeshadow Palettes feature metallic and glitter hybrid shades, perfect to create your own custom eyeshadow looks. Lastly, tie together your look with a high shine glossy lip like the Glow Reviver Lip Oil, a nourishing lip oil that enhances your lips’ natural color while leaving behind the glossiest and nourished pout.
Latte Inspired, Warm Shades
Just like a morning cup of coffee, really good eyeshadow just hits different. This autumn, your look isn’t complete without latte inspired hues. Warm, bronzy, pumpkin spice shades are a must-try for the season. While the sun may be setting on summer, you’ll be busy serving up the coziest looks. To create your own coffee shop inspired look, try one of our Bite Size Eyeshadow Palettes in the color Cream & Sugar, I Love You a Latte, or Pumpkin Pie. For our summer glow-getters, don’t let your bronzed skin fade just because the seasons are changing. Keep your glow alive with one of one of our coveted bronzers. The Primer-Infused Matte Bronzer delivers a long-lasting, buildable, sun-kissed glow while the Putty Bronzer melts into the skin for a natural and warm bronzed look. To tie your look together, brown or nude tones for your lips offer a soft finish to balance any look. Reach for one of our O Face Satin Lipsticks that offers a range of shades, from pink to caramel browns, perfect for everyday wear to cozy fall gatherings.
No-Makeup Makeup, Natural Bases
In our makeup playbook, fall is the perfect time to embrace a bare face. Easily enhance your natural complexion with lighter-coverage foundations. Skip the heavy feeling of a full coverage look and reach for a glowy foundation or multi-purpose product like the Halo Glow Liquid Filter, to give your complexion a healthy and radiant glow. It's an e.l.f. community favorite for its versatility – you can wear it alone, over or under makeup, mix it with your favorite foundation, or use it as a highlighter.
To create a dewy no-makeup makeup look, don’t skip out on Bronzing Drops, to help give your skin a warm complexion (without the sun!). This tinted serum is fully customizable, so the more drops you use the more bronzed you’ll look. Keeping your look minimal and soft is key to allowing your natural beauty to shine through for an effortless, fresh-faced look, perfect for fall.
Romantic, Rosy Colors
Double-down on rosy, flushed hues with romantic colors for fall. The winter “cold” blush is
making its way back earlier this year for the autumn season. We’re embracing wind-kissed
cheeks for a perfect blend of soft elegance and cozy charm. To achieve it, apply your
preferred rosy Putty Blush to the apple of your cheeks and blend the product towards the
bridge of your nose for that just-stepped-outside effect.
We love to pair this hack with a
tinted lip balm for a completely flushed look. The Hydrating Core Lip Shine is our go-to
lippie to achieve the look as it offers a sheer tint of color, infused with moisturizing Vitamin
E to keep lips nourished with dropping temperatures.
