Best Lipstick Shades for Fall

2016.10.02

Fall has officially arrived! It’s that time of year again when the leaves change colors and the wind blows a little bit stronger. The coffee shops become full with everything pumpkin-spiced, and many go to local farms to pick their very own pumpkin. Fall is an overall beautiful time of year and full of rich colors. However, Mother Nature isn’t the only one painting landscapes with rich hues. Every year, women rush to their local makeup store in search of the perfect hue for their lips. The runway this season has been filled with many classic and also unexpected colors for fall. Below you will find the best lipstick shades for fall.

Plum

Purples are one of fall’s staple colors every year. This season, however, the plums are a bit darker, and some could argue borderline goth. If darker tones aren’t your cup-of-tea, opt for a lighter purple hue for a more sophisticated look. You should wear plums with full brows and gorgeous, glowing skin. Apply sun-kissed bronzer for a perfect finish. For a more darker hue, try Bite Beauty Frozen Berries Matte Creme Lipstick in Plum or Elderberry. For a more sophisticated, lighter hue, opt for Melted Violet by Too Faced. Purples look great on every skin tone, so don’t be afraid to experiment with different hues and combine it with purple prom dress.

Brick Red

A red lip is always en vogue, no matter the season. However, opt for applying your makeup differently this fall by keeping your natural eye makeup and filling in your brows. Look no further than Kat Von D’s Liquid Lipstick in Outlaw. This gorgeous color goes on liquid and dries as a matte. Remember to moisturize your lips prior to applying, since matte lipsticks tend to be a little drier. This rich color will last you for hours, even after eating! Channel old Hollywood glamor this fall in a beautiful brick red lip and red prom dress.

Fuschia

Pink is in this season! This girly color is no longer reserved for spring’s florals. Fuschia is a great option for those who love a bold color. This hue is unexpected and new for fall; it is also a more subtle take on the glamorous, brick red. Complete your look by adorning your eyes with golden hues or add a liquid liner for a more dramatic look. Opt for #19 Fuschia by YSL’s Rouge Pur Couture Collection. This rich color goes on smooth with just one application. This color is a drop of happiness on those dark and chilly fall days with pink prom dress.

Cherry Blossom Pink

Apart from fuschia, a softer shade of pink is also in this season. If you love pastels, then cherry blossom pink is the perfect hue for you! Although different for fall, this color is refreshing when compared to fall’s darker hues. Highlight your cheeks using a shimmering highlighter; try Nars The Multiple in South Beach, which is an apricot shade. For your lips, try Senorita by Nars, which is infused with Vitamin E for a natural, smooth finish. This color is great for those who prefer a more natural-look.

Cocoa

Deep browns are taking us back to the 90’s this season! This dark hue is a must-have this season and looks great with flushed cheeks. For those who aren’t a fan of the deeper plum or burgundy hues, cocoa is a perfect match for fall. Opt for a lipstick with an added shimmer for a more glamorous look. Consider trying Marc Jacob’s Mahogany 232, which is described as a hot chocolate shade. This color is hydrating, velvety, and ultra-pigmented. Complete the look by adding a sultry cat-eye or channel Cindy Crawford circa 1990 by adding a subtle, smokey eye.
