The latte look
The latte makeup look will help you effortlessly transition from summer to winter makeup. If you’ve worn golden hour tan hues during summer, the browns and golds will also work brilliantly in autumn.
The warm tones of this soft autumn makeup style offer a cosy beauty inspired by your favourite coffees. You will likely see a lot of cinnamon, caramel, chocolate, mocha, cappuccino and coffee colours, perfect for fetching your pumpkin-spiced latte.
Coordinate your lips, cheeks and eyes with these colour pallets to culminate a chic and classic monochrome look.

Glossy no-makeup look
Another beauty trend gracefully merged into autumn is the glossy no-makeup look, emphasising skincare and flawless skin. Love the skin you’re in and showcase your natural skin with the bare minimum makeup.
The trend encourages you to look after your skin and keep it hydrated so your beauty will radiate through. Limit yourself to moisturiser, sheer foundation or tinted moisturiser and neutral nudes or pink shades for lips, eyes and cheeks.
Use a highlighter on your cheekbones, brow bone and the inner corner of your eye to create the illusion of dewy, luminous skin.

Berry cheeks
If you’re asking – “What colour blush should I wear for autumn?” we recommend sticking with the summer strawberry girl trend. The berry cheek theme draws on the warm pink blush used in the strawberry girl trend during the summer to create a rosy, flushed day look, creating the effect that you’ve been out for an autumnal walk on a crisp, cold morning.
Use berry pink blush on the apples of your cheeks or the crescent moon motion from your temple around your eye to your cheekbones. Placing your blush higher up creates a lift in your face. Finish the look by lightly dusting the bridge of your nose for a cosy, autumnal look.

Soft buffed lips and eyebrows
Soft autumn makeup looks are taking precedence this year, including a more relaxed undefined lip look. Using lip stain instead of lip gloss or lip liners, you can create a soft, buffed lip look that is easy to wear, which you don’t have to touch up later. Use a bold red matte liquid lipstick, blend the edges and defuse the outline.
Similarly, eyebrows will have a more relaxed form. Rather than a bushy brow, the natural soft look is popular this season with a fluffy and lightly sculpted form.

Blood red or statement brown lips
The lip trends this season are bold and voluptuous. With Halloween just around the corner, expect to see a lot of vamp-style lips. Opt for deep autumn makeup like a blood-red lipstick with dark lip liner. With matte lips out, celebrities and makeup artists are choosing a clear, glossy finish to make lips look extra plump and pouty.

The 90s are also back! Classic 90s browns and nudes work well with this autumnal trend. Embrace shading on your lips with liners and lipstick to recreate that iconic 90s nostalgia. And always add a glossy top coat.

Grunge glam/ Soft goth
Another autumn makeup trend that features heavily in the autumn and winter 2023 fashion shows and has growing popularity on TikTok is a soft goth/grunge glam look. The look features an unpolished but bold smokey eye, contoured cheeks and brushed brows. The eyes are the centre of this look, with everything else stripped back to an inconspicuous nude lip and ethereal glowy skin.
The laid-back look presents a “slept-in” glam effect and the edgy rock-n-roll look. Perfect for the spooky season!

Spider lashes
Big lashes are back in keeping with the Halloween season and grunge glam trend. The bolder, thicker, longer the better, even edging on the clumpy side.

Bold colour
We also saw a reoccurrence of bold colours used on the runway, including daring and colourful eye shadow, eyeliner and coloured mascara. Paired with bold graphic eyeliner in innovative shapes. Yes, you heard that right! Coloured mascara is making a comeback, with makeup artists using colours like pink, powder blue and mint green; eyeshadow shades include royal blue and green.

Glitz and metallic
What better way to compliment the bold and colourful eyeshadow trend than with an extra splash of metallic glitz? Use metallic eye shadow and lip balms to create a be-dazzled look in a kaleidoscope of colours.
