Top Trends...

Some Monday musings on my favorite fall make-up trends....Many trends come and go, but these are the ones I think are legit for the season and worth a shot. These are my top three but I am in love with trend #1 at the moment.



1 - 60's style mod make-up
Simple eyeshadow, nice black liner, solid lips.....
This is a classic Bridget Bardot look and ALWAYS look classy and fresh and best of all is easy to replicate.






Some tools to make this happen:
Nice, neutral eyeshadow....good color choices from MAC (Vapor) and Cargo (Georgia)
Solid black or navy liner - good color choices from Avon, L'Oreal and MAC
Berry lipstick - CoverGirl WetSlicks in Tickled Pink, L'Oreal Paris Colour Juice Sheer Lip Gloss





2 - Gray Eyes
A nice subtle option for those afraid of solid black or raccoon effects. Try this color in your eyeliner and your shadow and try multiple layers of both for the ultimate in smoky eyes. Best or fall gray shadow and liner will really bring out any eye color..makes blues fresh, greens deeper and browns sparkle.

Some good options:
Chanel charcoal Eyeshadows
Stila Smudge Pots in Gray
Maybelline Expertwear Eyeshadow Trios and Dream Mouse Shadows


3 - Green Shadows
This is really only for the brave of heart but I experimented a little and I am on board. Try to focus the greens toward the outer crease of your eye or you will look like a little girl playing with her mommy's shadows.

My picks for the green trend:
TooFaced Cosmetics Duo Shadow in Lucky Charms
Wet n' Wild MegaEyes Shadow Pot in Sensual Sage

Have fun, find your fall trend and keep looking fabulous!
