Fall’s Deep New Hues

Face it – the 80’s are back.  Leggings, long tunic sweaters and skinny jeans are all the rage for Fall fashion.  Dallas the movie is in the works, and what’s next?  Big hair?  As the 80’s are coming back, so are bright lips and eyes that would make the Material Girl blush.  The only catch?  You need super clean clear skin to pull off these radiant jewel toned makeup looks.

Don’t stash your bronzer away just yet… sweep a bronzing cream or gel across cheekbones to highlight clear skin, but be sure to cover up those age spots and summer freckles first.  Gently rub your cheeks to see where they naturally flush, then add a soft pink powder blush to the apples of your cheeks for a flushed, clean look with great staying power due to the combo of cream bronzer and powder blush.  Then try the season’s new palette of eye shadows in shades of soft peach and pink.  A strong bold eyeliner will frame your lower lashes and give definition when blended with a wine eye shadow for a decidedly punk-inspired eye.  Try a heated eyelash curler and add a coat of wine or dark chocolate mascara to open up the eyes and make them pop.  Dramatic eyes are balanced out with simple glamorous lip stains in shades of red and fuchsia.  Add a subtle touch of glimmery lip-gloss to the center of your upper lip’s cupid bow to enhance fullness.  Now take out your Aqua Net and jelly bracelets…
