The evenings are drawing in, the weather is cooling down and Fall fashion is flooding the high street. Autumn is definitely here, and there’s some serious new season shopping to be done. But before you dash out in search of perfect parkas and brilliant boots, check out the new season’s beauty trends. Just in time for London Fashion Week.....
Kiss and makeup
Cosmetics just got complicated. After summer’s low maintenance ‘tan, gloss and go’ attitude Autumn’s looks may seem demanding, but once you have the hang of it you’ll love these sensationally structured effects. Pillar-box red lips and metallic eyes will be huge in A/W 2011, closely followed by attention grabbing graphic eyeliner. Couture colours are also big news, with designers showcasing beautifully blended brights on eyes, lips and cheeks. Practice makes perfect so a makeup lesson might be just the thing to help you rock these stand-out looks.
Brilliant brows
Following summer’s trend for bleached out brows, the chiselled face framer is back in force this autumn. Think full, squared-off shapes with a slight natural curve, ideal for complimenting the latest androgynous looks. If your arches need an overhaul then HD Brows are the perfect way to bring them up to date. Using a combination of waxing, threading, plucking, tinting and mineral make-up, your therapist will shape and shade your eyebrows to give the ideal effect, even if plucking has left them a little sparse.
Luscious lashes
From Twiggy-style sixties spikes to full-on fringes, lashes are your most important accessory this season. Throw out the rulebook and aim for thick, almost clumpy lash looks to really emphasize your eyes. If your natural lashes leave a lot to be desired then make lash extensions your new best friend. Blink & Go lashes are the speediest on the market. Applied in half an hour they look picture perfect for a fortnight and can be applied on both upper and lower lashes for a Bambi-beautiful doe eyed effect. And the best bit? Going mascara free means no more panda eyes, however wet the weather.
Sensational skin
Highlighted, blushed or left naturally nude, skin is stealing the spotlight. To keep yours looking airbrushed this Autumn, treat it to an effective, in-depth facial. Enzyme-rich peels are brilliant at removing dull, dead skin cells to reveal a tighter, brighter, blemish- free look.
