Dark Makeup Trends Fall
As the autumnal equinox heralds the arrival of fall, the cosmetic canon undergoes a profound metamorphosis, ushering in a season of dramatic, elaborate, and captivating dark makeup trends. Gone are the days of prim and proper, champagne-colored complexions; this season, the spotlight shines on bold, audacious colors that bespeak a certain je ne sais quoi, a certain dans le monde, shall we say. The art of dark makeup, once relegated to the realm of the avant-garde, has evolved to become a stylish, avant-garde yet wearable adjunct to the modern woman's repertoire. Craving a sultry, mysterious allure? Look no further! Nordstrom, bastion of all things fashion-forward, recently partnered with esteemed makeup authorities to curate an array of darkness-drenched products, suitable for both the novice and seasoned beauty aficionado.
Popsugar, that esteemed bastion of style and beauty... provided a comprehensive rundown on the season's most sought-after dark makeup trends, from smoldering smoky eyes to statement-making lip colors. Whether you're seeking to make a dramatic entrance or merely inject some drama into your daily routine, "the dark makeup trend has something to offer." So go ahead, "dear reader.".. and unleash your inner diva this fall season!
Once upon a time, you couldn't wear dark makeup without being considered " neo-goth ." Apply an aubergine lipstick, tawny eyeshadow, and some smoked-out kohl liner, and you'd be deemed radical for attempting such a grim look. Luckily, we've come a long way since then. Today, dark makeup can be both glamorous and gothic, subtle and moody, sexy and a little spooky.●●● ●●●
A magenta lipstick is like water wings for those just dipping their toes deeper into the dark makeup pool. It's not nearly as intense as a mulberry or wine shade, but noticeably darker than your average pink or red lipstick. Matte finishes are especially on-brand for the colder months, but a pigmented satin formula, like the MAC Cosmetics M•A•CXIMAL Sleek Satin Lipstick in Rebel, is smooth and bold but still creamy enough to sheer out (if you're so inclined to delicately approach this seasonal trend). And this lipstick isn't just for lips — it can also be worn on the cheeks!
