As the weather gets cooler and a bit darker we realize that this is the best time to add a bit luxury and boldness to your look. Are you ready to change the forever trendy red lipsitick? Well, you better be, because this season everybody from models, bloggers to red carpet celebrities are wearing dark brown lipstick and we’re absolutely loving this trend from the 90’s. Diving into darker, deeper make up shades is our favorite thing about the cold days of the year. Seriously, there is nothing more empowering than applying a rich dark lipstick on your lips before heading out.
But for those of you who aren’t really make up experts, applying deeper color shades on your lips can leave you wondering what make up to use to the rest of your face. Firstly, you need to choose the right lipstick shade for you skin tone. Then you should soothe that heaviness with lighter make up. From naked lips to dark espresso lipstick shades, almost every shade will look great with brown smokey eyes, with cat eyeliner or simply with nice coat of mascara and pink bronzer.
Here are 15 looks we adore that totally nail the balancing act of a rich, bold lips and subtle makeup.
Bonus tips:
- Apply it with a lip brush to avoid dry look on your lips and have a smooth finish.
- Line your lips beforehand with a lip pencil that matches your lipstick shade or a bit darker.
- Keep the rest of your make up simple. Apply extra coat of mascara on your eyelashes and avoid using dark eye shadows. Apply fresh and bright color on you cheeks.
- Complete your autumn style by applying similar dark color on your nails.
