Fall 2015 Makeup Tips For Beginners

Hello beauties! Here I'm with another blog for you ^^

Dark clouds, windy evenings, long cloaks and cardigans, hot chocolates and soups, Beware! It's the Fall season. A dry, gloomy and paler time of the year, and as a makeup freak you might already know the basic trend that goes with fall and winters every year. The goal usually is to bring out something in contrast with the weather itself. However it turns out to be too dark and pigmented in most cases. When i was a learner, not that i'm not a learner anymore, but when i was looking for perfect fall looks, i got all these blogs and tutorials that always recommended dark lips, darker eyeliner heavy contouring etc. But it never came out as what i wanted to do with my face. And I would always end up looking too bold for a daily-wearable look. Not only this, the dark lips and eyeliners would always give a harsher look. So I decided to create my own fall looks using the color-span i liked to see reflected on my face. And it was wonderful.

Since i won't be able to write down each and every look, I'll just give you guys some simple steps to start with and I'm sure that will be all you'd want.

Be General:

So first thing's first, you must get out of these internet images that has limited your mind regarding what goes with fall and what does not. All these images you see, are people like you creating their own versions of fall make choosing the color span of their own choice. So if you see black to maroon/ reddish brown to red on a face, it doesn't mean its the only way you can do it. You must need to understand their is no ONE way of doing fall make up, it a season where gloss and matte both can survive. Black and Brown both will look gorgeous. Pink and maroon both are good to go with. So don't limit ideas.

Choose Your Color-span:

Now you can choose you own color-span. The Color Span basically means the flow of color down your face starting from your eyes, cheeks and lips. The detailing doesn't count. Choose your own colors, whatever that you think will look good on you. You can go as dramatic as you want but we're talking about everyday looks here.

I like to choose Neutral brown color for eyes, Pink Shimmery shades for cheeks and lip colors may vary but i like to go with light colors, matte or glossy but highly pigmented light colors are very attractive to me while choosing a makeup look for fall.

Use A Makeup Base:

Be it tinted moisturizer, foundation, BB cream or any CC cream. I use the Color Control by The Face Shop. I have given it's details in my previous blog. Click here to check that out.

Brighten Up Your Eyes:

Another very important thing is to brighten up your eyes. Fall or not your eye can look tired and using a light and bright color in the inner corner of your eyes. It will bring a glow not only to your eyes but to your entire look.
Use concealer if needed. Plus a little brown eye shadow in the crease area can create more depth to your eyes. I prefer using Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette for fall eye makeups as it has all the colors i want in it.
Eyeliner is optional for me but even if i do apply eyeliner i keep it natural by applying it as close to my lash-line as i can using small stroking motion. I do once in a while wing it out for about 1/4 of a cm when i go for more definition.
Also don't forget to use your favorite eye-cream to give your eyes a natural treatment against the harsh weather. I use my regular moisturizer by the way but if you wanna treat your eyes especial, go for it.

Highlight Those Cheekbones;

While many looks are focusing on heaving contouring, i recommend you to highlight your cheekbones for an everyday look. This will do the job giving your face a nice texture and also adding that extra glow to you look.
Use a shimmery blush, you can always use dark colors for this, as long as it doesn't look "too much" on you face. I like to use Bootycall from Naked 2 as a highlighter. Because it suits the looks that i create.

Give Your Lips Some Glossy Safety:

I am a big fan of long-staying matte lipsticks but my lips are not. Lip problems increase in Fall and i always end up using lip balms, olive oil or regular Vaseline.
This is why, i recommend using tinted lip-balms and lip glosses.
Glossy Lip products are tend to go better with Fall even if one is not wearing any makeup at all. It brings glow your face and also protects your lips from cracking.

Other essential tips:

Drink a lot of water to hydrate your skin from within. Use moisturizer twice a day. Lip balms are great even if you don't intend to wear make up. Using Dark colors for your dresses rather than make will do a wonderful job for you. Wear blacks, dark browns, maroons, and such colors that go contrasting the pale dry weather.

These were my Fall ideas for 2015. Check out my other posts as well. Stay tuned for more amazing stuff. Good Luck :)
