Plastic Surgery Blog: Make- Up Trends for fall

Just like clothes, makeup has trends also. As we transition from summer to fall the experts encourage us to change our makeup also. A recent Yahoo online news story highlighted the fall makeup trends with the help of a lead makeup artist. Starting with the eyes the artist advised that purple smoky eyes are definitely the fall favorite. He likened it to the nude colors that were popular previously during the summer. He surmised that the reason is because purple goes with every color of eyes including brown eyes which look lighter with purple eye shadow. He explained that blue or green eyes are the opposite side of the color wheel so the effect is a darker deeper look. He also advised that we can expect to see well-defined eyes this season. In order to achieve this look you will need black eyeliner that is either liquid or pencil. For foundation, the makeup artist recommended a matte skin look. This replaces the dewy glistening look of summer. The matte look is attainable by using medium to full coverage foundations. The makeup artist recommended a good primer before applying foundation for the best appearance. For fall lips the color red is back. Red is a classic for the holidays and according to the makeup artist, nothing says powerful woman like red lipstick. Finally metallic nails are the trend for the fall season. The makeup artist calls them diamonds for your nails. If you are making the effort to keep up with the make-up trends be sure not to forget procedures that will minimize lines and wrinkles on the face. Dr. Kim explains that these procedures include Botox which will improve the wrinkles on the forehead as well as crowfeet, also include injectable fillers like Restylane for added fullness to the nasolabial folds and lips. Beautiful makeup on a beautiful face is timeless for every season.
