Falling For Fall

Orange and purple, what can be a better combination? I love both of these shades, especially on my dark brown eyes. Purple always looks great with brown eyes and orange reflects coppery warmth of my eye color. Today's makeup is a colorful combination, perfect for transitioning into fall season, when you're still a bit hooked on colorful summery shades.

As always, I started with an eye primer and bone colored matte shade all over the lid. Then I added light warm matte brown in the crease. I deepened it with a medium very warm matte brown shades. To add some more warmth, I also added in the crease a very warm red toned medium matte brown. On the lid I added a coral creamy base shade to act as an adhesive for my other colorful matte shades.

For the lid I mixed a few of coral and peach matte shades. Around lower lash line I mixed bright pink and purple to get this kind of warm purple. I also deepened the outer corner with just the purple. 

On my inner corners I applied sparkly peach based highlighter shade. I also winged out my black liner, applied black mascara and added some individual false eyelashes. I find these easier to work with and they still look natural enough, but just add some volume and thickness to my natural lashes. 

For the face I used foundation, concealer and powder. I also bronzed up my outer parts of the face. For highlighter I went with a peach based very reflective and light highlighter. I wanted my blush to match purple tones, so I used a mauve shade. 

The star of this look that made it fall appropriate is a very bright warm purple lip pencil.

I am always a little sad when summer is over and the weather becomes a bit chillier. It sort of feels like nature is preparing for a long sleep. I also associate this time with less fun and summer adventures, which is kind of sad. But then again, I love fall clothing, darker makeup, wrapping yourself up in a blanket, enjoying a cup of tea and burning some candles. This was my letting go of summer and transitioning into fall makeup look.
