BEAUTY BAR: Bring on the Burgundy

October 6th, 2015 at 2:00am

The leaves on the trees aren’t the only things changing colors this season. As fall graces us with its crisp and cool presence, our everyday fashion palettes are also changing colors. This season displays an umbrella of color that weaves earthy neutrals, such as olive green and navy blue, with a range of bold color statements and patterns. Fall tones and shades embrace all things natural. As the season changes from summer to fall, so do our makeup shades and color choices. It’s time to trade in your shimmery pinks, bright corals and light browns for deep plums, dark reds and smoky matte browns.

I saw this Fashionista rocking a deep burgundy matte lipstick, which looked absolutely flawless against her skin tone. Every year when October hits, my compulsive lipstick buying habit strikes and I find myself in a different makeup store every weekend browsing all the new lipsticks and stains in every shade imaginable. There’s something about the season of fall that makes me want to buy and try every new lip shade that hits the shelf.

This Fashionista also knows exactly what to do when it comes to her eyebrows. I would definitely go as far to say they were totally ‘on fleek.’ She uses the Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade to achieve her perfect arches. Her secret? She uses a small angled brush and always reminds herself that eyebrows are sisters, not twins.

The smoky eye here completes her look and brings out the green in her hazel eyes. She uses the Kat Von D Star Studded Eyeshadow Book which is absolutely perfect for any occasion. I especially love the dark browns, smoky greys, deep purples and shimmery blacks that can be worn lightly for casual daywear and then can be played up to create a look that’s perfect for a night out.

Let’s also take a moment to appreciate this Fashionista’s stylish outfit. She’s definitely ready for fall in her cozy knit cardigan and adorable boots and she ties the outfit together by accessorizing with layered gold necklaces.

What’s on the BEAUTY BAR: To recreate this stunning beauty look, you’ll need an eyebrow pomade and a matte burgundy lipstick. Finish your look by creating the perfect fall smoky eye with Urban Decay’s Naked SMOKY eyeshadow palette that is absolutely to die for! #treatyourself
