Statement lips
Boldly colored lips are big news this season.For a "seriously
uninhibited lip", chocolate and cherry tones are suggested. Ruby,
garnet and currant also work beautifully. If you're nervous about
going super bold, apply bright shades as a stain instead.
To achieve the berry-stained pouts, concentrate lipstick in the
center of the lip before blending the color out towards the lip
line using a lip brush.
Eyeliner
From '80s rock to modern Geisha girl, eyeliner is a must-buy this
autumn. "Liquid eyeliner is everywhere," says Morris. "Try using
a pencil instead of liquid eyeliner to soften a really graphic
look," says Burford. "Or soften the edges of liquid liner with an
eye shadow." Alternatively, downsize. "An overly exaggerated
catwalk shape can be reproduced as a 'mini–me' version,
" says Burford. "For example, a square, box-shape liner can
be translated into a blunt edge rather than the usual tapered tail."
Eye-Popping Color
Shades of Grey and silver, glitter-encrusted or full-throttle
hues, eyes have gone all-out. "Bold eyes look really effective as
an evening or party make-up," says Burford, who warns against
trying statement eyes during the day. To channel the '70s and
'80s rock and disco-inspired looks at Ellie Saab, Zac Posen and
Salvatore Ferragamo, try shades of Grey, blue and teal.
If you're new to color, Burford suggests trying softer bronzes
and burgundy shades. "They're a great alternative if you're
shy of bold color," she says. Or add just a pop of color to your
usual smoky eye. "Try a hint of coral on grey eye shadow or a
pop of green on bronze " advises Burford.
Pretty flush
Glowing, flushed skin is a must this cool season. To achieve the
luminous complexions seen on the Missoni and Bill Blass runways,
Burford suggests using a luminiser under and over foundation.
Morris advises swapping foundation for mineral powder.
"Mineral powder is non-irritating so it's perfect for sensitive
skin and gives a really polished look to the complexion," she says.
Wow brows
Stop over-plucking; thickly defined brows are a mainstay.
"Big brows are important this season," agrees Morris.
But don't think you can let them go altogether — this season's sleek and
sophisticated brows require careful grooming, so visit your beautician for
a professional brow-shaping. "And invest in a brow pencil in a similar shade
to your natural brows to give them fullness and fill in any gaps," suggests Morris.
