Make Up Games for Fall


Fall is in the air, and with the turning of the seasons, you need to prepare your make up for the change in temperature and climate conditions. Fall make up tends to be very earthy. You want your colors to reflect the natural colors of the earth with plenty of browns, reds, greens, dark blues and gold. Think of those lovely falling leaves when selecting colors for autumn.

But outside of selecting the right colors for fall, you’ll also need to find ways to treat and pamper your skin as the air outside turns colder and drier and the air inside gets hotter and stuffier. Fall air can be great for skin if it’s wet and dewey out. But when those cold breezes blow through and you can feel the lack of moisture in the air, you’re going to need to step up your game a bit.

Moisturize heavily during these times to keep your skin in peak condition while the dry conditions try to sap the moisture away. A light cream under your make up and a heavier cream worn at night will keep your skin moist. Don’t forget to include eye creams to protect that fragile area of the face as well.
