Why this worksEarthy tones like browns, oranges, and greens complement our natural skin tones, creating a harmonious and warm appearance. These shades can highlight your features without being overpowering, making them perfect for a subtle yet effective look. Plus, they resonate with the seasonal vibe of October, giving you that autumnal glow.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Prep Your Skin Start by cleansing and moisturising your face to create a smooth canvas. A light primer can help your makeup last longer while keeping it looking fresh throughout the day.
  2. Apply Foundation Use a lightweight foundation or tinted moisturiser that matches your skin tone. Apply it evenly using a makeup sponge or brush for a natural finish.
  3. Add Earthy Eyeshadow Choose a warm, earthy eyeshadow palette. Apply a soft brown shade on the eyelids and blend it out with a slightly darker tone in the crease for depth. You can also add a hint of gold or bronze for some shimmer.
  4. Define Your Brows Fill in your brows with a pencil or powder that matches your hair colour. Well-defined brows frame your face and enhance your overall look without being too bold.
  5. Finish with Blush and Lip Colour Opt for a natural blush in a peachy or terracotta shade to add warmth to your cheeks. For your lips, choose a nude or soft orange lipstick or tinted balm that complements the earthy theme.

Where people go wrong

Many people overlook skin prep and skip primer, resulting in uneven application. Others may go too heavy on eyeshadow, losing the natural vibe. Remember to choose shades that enhance rather than overpower your features.

The pro moveConsider using a setting spray to keep your makeup looking fresh all day, especially in warmer October weather.
