As we move out of the Summer heat and into the cool, breezy
fall season everything that we are used to seeing as we step out the door is
about to change. The leaves will start
to change to bright, warm, golden colors before falling to the ground and leaving
everything bare. And just for a moment
before winter sets in everything will be a warm, rich, golden hue.
So in researching many of the upcoming Fall trends for 2014 I wasn’t surprised to see many of the same things that come to mind when I think of this transitional season. Metallic touches and bright vibrant colors are trending big for Fall. So if you are feeling like trying something new with your makeup don’t be afraid to push the limits and go a bit outside of your comfort zone.
If your are a little
more timid start with a gold scarf or some silver nail polish and work up to
applying some fun glittery eye makeup.
Or maybe start with a peachy lip and work your way up to a bolder color. Whatever you do, make sure that you choose
colors that compliment your eye color and skin tone. Reference a color wheel if needed, to see
which color is complimentary, or opposite your eye color on the wheel.
Towards the end of Fall the trees become more bare and their
branches become more defined. This may
possibly be the inspiration for some other Fall trends that we will see more
of. There is room for both glowing,
fresh, bare skin and defined eyes within the autumn months. To get a flawless, glowing complexion start
with some fresh clean skin and a moisturizer with an SPF. This will moisturize your skin while
protecting it from the harmful rays of the sun.
Even though it may not be warm and sunny in the Fall like it is in the
Summer, the sun’s rays are still strong enough to harm your skin for years to
come. So remember to protect your skin
during all seasons. Using a moisturizer
with a built in SPF will take the worry out of forgetting to apply a sunscreen
on a day-to-day basis.
If you do have imperfections on your skin and feel the need
to apply a foundation as well, Glo-Minerals is a great choice because the minerals
and anti-oxidants used to create the makeup are not only good at covering up
any imperfections you may have, but will also protect your skin and help
correct your imperfections. Glo-Minerals
also has built-in UV protection as well so you can feel good about using it every
day.
If you are like me then you always have to add something
more to that bare skin before taking on your day, even if it is just a bit of
mascara. Of course if I had long
luscious lashes then I wouldn’t have to do that either, and I am all about
simplifying my morning routine as much as possible. So an alternative would be to get XTreme lash
extensions put onto your natural lashes.
XTreme Lash Extensions help your lashes look thicker and longer without
looking fake. For more information on XTreme Lash Extensions visit http://www.ruthieseyes.com/xtreme-lashes.html
or call Ruthie's Eyes Studio (610-724-3808). Long luscious
lashes is coincidentally just one more Fall Trend for 2014.
When you hear defined eyes the first words that may come to
mind are dark or smoky, but defined just means clean or outlined. You can use really any color that you feel
compliments your eyes to outline your top and bottom lids. A dark, liquid liner can be used for a more
dramatic look,
while a light powder applied with small smudge or liner
brush can be used for softer definition.
So with fall here, start to look outside
and use what is around you to help inspire a change in your day-to-day look. Whatever you decide to try don’t be afraid to
get a little risqué, as it can all simply be wiped away! And most importantly have fun!!
