Pinky Cheeks

No, they’re not just for spring. Give all those bronzer-heavy contouring lessons a rest, and dab some pink blush on the apple of your cheeks like Christina Hendricks.

Dark Lipstick

Get all sexy-like with the ’90s-throwback trend of deep berry-hued lipstick. J.Lo’s satin pout is almost purple, and that’s just the hue you should look for.

Light Brown Lipstick

Sofía Vergara’s matte hue is almost brown, so her mouth is defined but still blends nicely with natural makeup elsewhere.

Silver Eye Shadow

Old-school makeup advice dictates that metallic shades close up the eye. But Jennifer Lawrence’s silver shadow proves that wrong. Just swipe the color along the inner and lower eyelids--not all the way across.

Graphic Liner

This fall, channel Aubrey Plaza and devote an hour to practicing your ring-around-the-lashes eyeliner technique.

Full Lashes

The sultry allure of thick lashes--whether coated in layers of mascara or layers of falsies--is trending big time. Follow Chrissy Teigen’s artfully curled lead.

Full Brows

Nope, this juggernaut trend isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. If you haven’t yet embraced it, now’s your chance. Just add brow powder.
