This fall, it’s all about the eyes and some of the colors I noticed repetitively down the runway was gray shades, natural colors, and candy-color shades. Here are some tips and product recommendation to get any of these 3 looks for back to school.
Gray Smoky Eyes
Gray is by far the “It” look this season! In the first picture above, you see different shades of gray while the lower lash line rimmed with black eyeliner for the perfect smokey eye effect. I would recommend Dior Jazz Club Collection in 001. It has several different grays to play around with this fall.
Natural Eyes
The “no makeup look” is another popular trend this fall. It’s a great if you want a soft, clean, and natural appearance. Suggestion: Add a bright lip to complete the look. Check out Smashbox Eyelights Eyeshadow Palette in Beam.
Candy Color Eyes
During the Christian Dior show, you could not find a model that didn’t have the candy-colored look. I was even more drawn to it when I saw this particular model in the picture above wearing the exact same look at Sephora. Absolutely gorgeous! I would recommend NARS Duo Eyeshadow ($32). Want to recreate this look? Check out this youtube video from Makeup By Tiffany!

Here’s a beauty trend that you’ll either love or hate. Dark lips is the must have beauty look this fall and you can work the dark trend for any occasion.
Get the dark lips look from any of these fab lipsticks!
- Givenchy Rouge Interdit Lipstick in Black Plum- It’s more than just a lipstick. It adds sexy, light-reflective , dramatic color to the lips as it nourishes and moisturizes with powerful antioxidants. Longwearing lipstick that melts right onto the lips. Perfect for achieving the gothic-inspired look seen all through the fall runways.
- Dior Rouge Dior Lipstick in Red Premiere- Cherry red lipstick is both innocent and sensual and is a very classic look. It’s very much a popular lip color this fall that’s so alluring. This long-wearing lipstick gives the perfect coverage and shine as it hydrates the lips.
- M.A.C. Satin Lipstick in Film Noir- Another almost black dark lipstick that is hot, hot, hot! Film Noir, an intense brown shade from M.A.C. Cosmetics, is a great lip trend to wear on the streets.
- Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Spicy Cinnamon- Here’s a fashionable shade that is full of mega-moisturizers, Vitamin C and E. I fell in love with this color when I saw Jessica Alba wearing this exact shade in a Revlon ad while flipping through Allure Magazine September issue. The color just screams fall and another popular look for back to school.
- Urban Decay Lipstick in Oil Slick- This is not your typical highschool goth lipstick. Oil slick is very glossy infused with shimmer and sparkles that nourishes the lips. This is the ultimate dramatic lip color!
