Soft Smoky Eyes and Berry Lips: The Autumn Makeup Look That Takes 10 Minutes.



Autumn makeup has a beautiful middle ground between a bare face and full evening glamour. Soft smoky eyes and a blurred berry lip bring warmth and definition while still letting your skin look like skin.

Begin with the complexion you enjoy wearing: a light base, concealer where you want it, or simply moisturised skin. Brush through your brows. Then press a taupe or deep brown shadow along the upper lash line and blend it with a small brush or clean fingertip. You are looking for a soft shadow around the eyes, so a precise line is unnecessary. Add mascara if you like.

For the lips, tap on a berry shade and soften its edges with your finger. You can keep the colour sheer for daytime or add another layer before dinner. On deeper skin tones, a rich plum or wine shade can give the same softly defined effect. A little blush brings the whole look together.

The quickest way to make this makeup feel luxurious is to choose where the attention goes. Give the eyes gentle depth, let the lips carry the colour, and leave yourself enough time to look in the mirror and enjoy it.
