Tested for you: Fall look from Make Up Factory

Fall is fast approaching. Nature is already preparing for the coming season. Here in Italy, the widespread oaks are shedding their brown leaves. The pine trees shed their needles in a wonderful reddish brown. I have also adopted the beautiful fall tones of nature for my new eye make-up look. Strong color nuances in an elegant brown-grey. I love these mousse colors because I don’t like any color rush on my eyes. I prefer to save that for my outfits – even in the fall and winter season.

Fall look: Be the rebel

For my eye make-up, I choose the vegan Pro Effect Eye Palette “Iconic Variations” with a lid in an elegant, black leather look. An extremely aesthetic feel! I can create a new trend for myself every day from the nine sensual eyeshadow powders ranging from a light beige (ideal as an eye opener!) to charcoal black. For the evening, there are two metallic versions in silver and bordeaux, while the other powders are wonderfully matt and velvety-soft to apply.

Thanks to the high luminosity and intense color payoff, applying makeup to the eyes with this palette is child’s play – provided you use the right brushes for the eyelid, corner of the eye and lid margin. You can create a blurred shabby look with your fingers, but you should then limit yourself to one color. Incidentally, these are all free from mineral oil, parabens and perfume.

Eyeliner with or without wing

I use the vegan Ultra Last Precision Liner in an ultra-matt “Deep Black” to give the eyes more expression and to visually thicken the lashes. I can draw both fine and bold lines with the precise felt tip. A little tip on how to make it easier: first draw a gentle line from the inner corner of the eye to the middle of the lash line – always close to the lash line so that there is no gap to the eyeliner. Then draw a second line from the outer corner of the eye to the center.

If you want a wing at the end of the eye – whether curved, straight, larger or smaller – you should make sure that there is only a little color on the eyeliner brush. For this reason, a felt liner has a clear advantage here. Place it at the outer corner of the eye and draw a fine line towards the eyebrow. The wing should be pointed. There is no need to be afraid of smudging: The Ultra Last Precision Liner is not only quick-drying, but also waterproof. Lasts up to ten hours.

Powder blush in two shades of fall brown

What I like to do without in summer is a must in the months when my skin is paler – highlighting my cheekbones. For my fall look, I opted for the vegan Artist Powder Blush. There is a lighter “Light-Medium” and a darker “Medium-Dark” version in the collection. I chose the latter for myself because my skin is naturally toned and I can hardly achieve any effect otherwise.

The duo blusher has two perfectly coordinated brown shades in a velvety texture. I usually use the two together, applying them to the highest point of the cheekbones with a thick blush brush and then blending them in a C-shape towards the temples. The darker shade is also great for contouring under the cheekbones, around the hairline or on either side of the nose.

Lips remain subtle

The more color I have on my eyes, the more restrained I am when applying make-up to my mouth. At most, I use a rosewood-colored contour pencil, which I blend into the inside of my lips with a neutral balm. If I feel like wearing my beloved orange-red lipstick, I leave it alone and apply black mascara to my eyes. What I never do without is styling my eyebrows.
