Fall Makeup: Cool & Warm


As the weather turns cooler I'm finding myself dragged back to neutrals. This is not necessarily a bad thing, and I've noticed that the neutral tones of the 90's are back in vogue as well right now. I also purchased a new eyeshadow that I'm just nuts about, so here we go.


First off let's talk about the temperature of your makeup. What? That's right beauty friends. All colors have a cool and warm undertone. For example, soft brown from MAC is a warm brown. Kid from MAC is a cool brown. Have I lost you? That's OK, it's easier than you think. If it looks like there is orange in your makeup then it's probably warm, and if it look like there's pink in your makeup then it's probably cool. But wait, didn't you just say that all colors can be warm and cool? Too true, but for now let's go with the stereotypical orange and pink shades that pop into our heads before we go down that rabbit hole.


Did you know you're allowed to mix cool and warm? As long as everything is in balance then this it totally fine. It usually ends up popping your eye color even more because you're playing with tones on both side of the spectrum. In this look I made the crease warmer and the lid cooler. The lip I used is warmer, and the blush I used is both cool and warm. See? Everything in balance and it works. This is actually one of my favorite makeup looks right now too because, as you can imagine, it goes with everything you wear. You don't have to think about what tones your outfit is, because you're wearing both cool and warm. Savy?
