Autumn trend . . . Dark lips

Today’s make-up tip courtesy of Chantel:

As we dress a little bit warmer & cover up,our make up looks also change with the seasons & fashion trends. So,today I’ll be showing you ladies 1 of the Autumn/Winter make up trends.

 

Step1

Start off with your perfect canvas,meaning foundation,concealer,powder.Don’t change your shade of foundation as yet because our South African sun is still shining bright(especially in Cape Town)but as we go into the colder months your complexion will change to & a lighter shade of foundation is needed.

 

Step2

This look requires a simple single colour eye shadow in either a shimmery nude shade or a matte neutral shade.Apply this from lashline up,till under the brow area.You can add a liquid liner cat eye if you want more drama but then that’s all you need & off course a double dose of mascara!

 

Step3

Dark lips are the biggest Autumn/Winter trend,so ladies,its time to be adventurous!Apply as I’ve showed in my previous pictorial of how to apply the red lipstick. Apply foundation,layer powder then the lipstick. Et voila!

 

Finish your look with a darker bronzer or plum colour blusher.Another tip:If your lip colour is dark match your blusher in the same colour pallet or dab a little bit of the lipstick on the apple of your cheeks then apply your bronzer. Do that only if you need too. Yep,I’m going oldschool!

 

Darker shade lipsticks doesn’t mean black or meaning go Goth unless you want that look.It can look sexy!If you are less adventurous,go light Plum,Maroon,Berry shades or deep red. This trend is not restricted to complexion colour,full lips,thin lips,its for every women who wants to explore the vivacious vixen she is. Have an adventurous,expedition with your make up this weekend… Next week,look forward to another Autumn trend! Mwah
