Came along Fall…
While summer days are coming to an end, we’re looking on the bright side; Fall beauty is back! Finally, after countless seasons of no-makeup makeup looks and #wokeuplikethis hair, it's time to work some magic again and kick-off Autumn beauty routines into high gear. This Fall, eyeliner is in your face, lips are impossible to ignore, and hairstyle is all about the realest of the reals; curls, curls, curls, that is for me. There’s no need to wait until the leaves start falling to try out these major trends!

Ahead of the new season, discover my edit of the 5 beauty trends you need to know now…
ILLUMINATED SKINHealthy fresh skin has been trending for seasons but this Fall, the prettiest skin is neither highly-reflective nor blur tool mattified (sorry, beloved beauty blender!). It has taken on an hyper-real radiance. My focus when doing my make-up in the morning is to add just a little bit of shine where there normally is shine and a subtle rosy flush where there should be a flush. It's as simple as that! And for the freshest complexion, I finish my tint base off with a radiant peachy glow.
Go on, glow on!
Go on, glow on!

Remember your early 2000's, when eyeliners were nothing else but black and greasy? Being still a kid at that time and not allowed to wear any makeup, I have a feeling I'm gonna be splurging on dark liners this season... Do not get me wrong, a classic flick should always be part of your more dramatic beauty looks but do consider a soft smudge by rimming your waterlines in ink or take a theatrically dark turn and don't stop 'til you hit the brow.
When it comes to technique, it's a free-for-all!

Deep, dark, dramatic hues are undeniably the biggest trend for lips this season but these aren't your typical Autumn berries and plums... Influencers, models, makeup gurus and all beauty aficionados have been cheering for the return of the browns, once a staple amongst lipsticks and liners. Brown lips are just another way to deepen your beauty flair without looking like you're trying to hard because there is something quite natural about subtle earthy colours, regardless of their intensity and tone.
Forget about the colours of the leaves, go straight to the muddy ground!

GLITTER CUTICLES
If you thought glitter was only cool during your sophomore year and at the homecoming dance, think again... This Fall we are rocking an approved update on sparkling nail art that will make you shine bright in an all grown-up fashion. Wear sparkles at the bottom of your nails for a sublte coup d'éclat on your weekly polished mani, whether you are sporting soft earthy hues, deep Autumn colours or even a very natural nude, or simply to cover bad cuticles because let's face it, career girls don't always have time for daily cuticle care.
And yes, that's how often you should actually pamper yours ;)

HOT FUZZ CURLS
As the leaves start falling, say goodbye to sleek hair-dos and smooth blowouts. And we're not mad about it! This season, hairstyles are curly and hair texture is real. If you need to pull out foam rollers, curling irons, styling mousse, curl activators, frizz-free serums or even pin-up your hair overnight to achieve those coveted defined coils, YOU GO GIRL!
That instant volume will leave them wondering what the heck you put in your latte that morning ;)
