Why this worksWarm colours evoke the essence of autumn, creating a flattering glow that complements the season. Using shades like burnt orange, warm browns, and soft golds enhances natural warmth in your complexion. This approach not only uplifts your mood but also harmonises beautifully with the changing leaves.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Prep Your Skin Start with a clean, moisturised face. Apply a primer suitable for your skin type to create a smooth canvas for your makeup.
  2. Choose Your Foundation Select a foundation that matches your skin tone and provides a natural finish. Apply it evenly with a damp sponge for a seamless look.
  3. Warm Up Your Eyes Use warm-toned eyeshadows like copper and rust on your eyelids. Blend them well, adding a lighter shade to your brow bone for a lifted effect.
  4. Add a Touch of Blush Opt for a warm blush in shades like peach or terracotta. Smile and apply it to the apples of your cheeks, blending it back towards your temples.
  5. Finish with Lips Choose a lipstick in a warm nude or burnt red. Apply it directly or with a brush for precision, ensuring it complements your overall look.

Where people go wrong

Many people skip primer, leading to uneven application. Others might choose too cool-toned shades that clash with the warm autumn vibe. Not blending eyeshadow well can also result in harsh lines.

The pro moveFor extra warmth, consider adding a touch of highlighter on your cheekbones and inner corners of your eyes.
