Autumn Beauty: A Seasonal Sneak Peek! How to take your summer makeup ritual into the easy-breezy spirit of autumn? Look to the runways for stunning seasonal inspiration.
Autumn is all about transition. Though the days are still balmy and your skin still glows as if kissed by the summer sun, the leaves are tuing, heralding a change of season.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves; we're not in "pumpkin latté all day, every day" mode yet! It'll be a few weeks before we crave a delicious mug of hot cider… or luscious mahogany haircolor, or even deep-plum lipstick!
Because Mother Nature is still transitioning, why not take the best of summer and fall, and combine them for a look that'll take you from one glamorous season to the next.
Our favorite look for a summer-to-autumn face? Designed at Miami Swim Week by Sarah Lucero, celeb makeup artist and Global Artistic Director for Stila Cosmetics, the "Sun Kissed Siren" combines the minimalism of no-makeup makeup with warm pops of pigment.
