Trend Watch: Lips to Fall For
Bold. Velvety. Nude. Matte. It’s all here.
Bold Wine Lips
A Bordeaux pout never goes out of style, but the fact that this look popped up everywhere on fall fashion runways is proof that it's more popular than ever.
PRO TIP:
A rich wine lipstick pairs perfectly with dewy foundation and defined eyes. Prep lips with a lip liner to keep rich tones in check.
Oxblood Lips
Fire up your lips with an oxblood hue tinged with hits of brown for fall.
Apply it directly on the lips for an opaque look, or dab the shade on your finger before tapping it onto lips for a softer finish.
Berry Lips
Deep lips are always a fall favorite, and this year, berry shades are taking the world by storm. Berry is so universally flattering that it can also be considered a neutral.
Rich, Dark Lips
This look references the Y2K dark lip trend of the ‘90’s and is supported by lip liners in colors like Nutmeg and Plum Berry. Lips pout in shades burgundy, brick, and deeply colored plums — shades like Desire Me and Berry are a go to balance the inevitable shades of brown and black fall fashions.
PRO TIP:
Set aside your full coverage matte foundation and let your natural skin glow through to allow deep shades to pop and accent, not compete with your skin.
Nude Lips
Want to keep your lips simple? You're in luck — the final fall colour trend is all about nude. As in, your-lips-but-better in nude tones like Darling and Naked for an ultra chic vibe.
PRO TIP:
Pair the nude lip look with well groomed brows and a few layers of your favorite mascara and bring neutral warmth to your look with Miami or Maui blended across the bridge of your nose and the hallows of your cheeks.
