With fall weather approaching, many ladies are swapping their summer go-to makeup looks for some fall favorites. Before we see drops in temperature (c'mon cooler weather in Texas!), I wanted to share how my seasonal "go to" products evolve to incorporate fall beauty trends.
I've also partnered with an adorable, New York-based lingerie company, Adore Me (whose current Head of Design, Helen Mears, is the former Head of Design at Victoria's Secret!), to pair their fan-favorite lingerie sets with some essential fall makeup looks. I'm excited to share which products from Beautycounter that I would use to create the color combinations for each of these styles.
For
pairing #1:
Deep Berry Lips - Beautycounter's
Lip Sheer in Currant or Plum - and
Lip Gloss in Fig
For a deep berry-colored lip look, start with the
Lip Sheer in Currant, Raisin or Plum and layer together with the
Lip Gloss in Fig, which goes on smoothly with no stickiness, for an extra bold color with shine (or wear the gloss alone for a light berry color)!
Beautycounter's
Lip Sheers are an everyday "go to" for me, as they go on silky-smooth and have a lightweight, ultra-moisturizing, and long-lasting formula that is the perfect mix color and sheen. Plus, there's no synthetic fragrance - just a hint of vanilla!
For
pairing #2:
Blue Smokey Eye - Beautycounter's Winter Dream Palette
Tip: First, lightly press Bellflower (vibrant periwinkle - second color from the left) onto the eyelid and blend Marine (true navy - first color on the left) onto the upper lash line. Then, highlight inner corners of eyes and under brow with Opal (opalescent pink - third color from the left) - all from Beautycounter's new holiday Winter Dream Palette - to create a gorgeous blue smokey eye.
For
pairing #3:
"No Makeup Makeup" with Strong Highlight
We know that it takes multiple products to create that effortless "no makeup makeup" look!
First, apply Beautycounter's
Tint Skin Foundation (apply with a foundation brush or blending sponge, for more coverage) or, for lighter coverage,
Dew Skin Tinted Moisturizer (can apply and blend with fingertips).
Next, using an angled brush, apply the Whisper (soft peach with a hint of pink) Blush from the Winter Warmth Palette to your cheeks, and then dab it onto your eyelids. For luminosity, dust Feather (opalescent sheen highlight), also from the Winter Warmth Palette, on the high points of cheeks, down the center of the nose and above brow bones using a powder brush.
Then, apply our best-selling
Lip Sheer Lipstick in Twig and new Lip Gloss in Bare Shimmer from the Luminous Nudes Gift Set.
Finish the look with a few sweeps of
Lengthening Mascara to define your lashes.
Products suggested: 1.
Tint Skin Foundation or
Dew Skin Tinted Moisturizer | 2.
Winter Warmth Palette (Eyes and Cheeks) | 3.
Luminous Nudes Gift Set (Lips) | 4.
Lengthening Mascara
For
pairing #4:
Peach Shadow - Beautycounter's
Color Shade Eye Duo in Peach/Bronze
Beautycounter's
Eye Duo in Peach/Bronze will flatter all skin tones! These satiny powders contain Porcelain Flower Extract, a Thai bloom known for its antioxidant benefits, to help moisturize the delicate skin around the eyes for a flattering, luminous effect. The two complementary shades are designed to be worn together or alone.
Tip: Use the Peach shade for a soft sweep of all over color, or add the Bronze shade to the crease for a more defined look.

I've always enjoyed Valentine's Day, as it was a celebrated in my sorority as a holiday for social gathering.
