The six prettiest makeup looks for autumn 2022

The six prettiest makeup looks for autumn 2022

With party season on the horizon, cold-weather wedding invites stacking up and the fact that our sun-inspired “no makeup” makeup looks just aren’t cutting in these cooler climes, we’ve made it our mission to find the prettiest new makeup looks for autumn 2022. So, whether you’re looking to refresh your everyday makeup, or need some scene-stealing makeup inspo for your next event, we have you totally covered! Keep scrolling and be prepared to swoon over every beautiful look on our list…

Soft transitional shades

Transitional makeup looks, like this one, make saying goodbye to summer just a little easier! Keep your light, warm-weather base but go in a little heavier with a soft brown or shimmery pink shadow on your lids for a dose of autumnal warmth.

Moody lip colours

This season, we’re all for coordinating our makeup with autumnal outfits! To get this look, go ahead and switch out your glosses and light pink/peachy lip colours for some darker tones. We recommend shades of burgundy, apple red and mahogany.

Full, defined brows and soft autumn shades

Need this look? We feel you. First, brush out your brows, lightly pencil in any sparse areas and set them with a lightweight brow gel. For the rest of your face, dab on a glowy cream eye shadow, a little peach blush and a glossy pink lip colour. To finish the look, go in with a few light sweeps of volumising mascara!

Graphic neon liner

Want a makeup look with the wow factor? Opt for trending neon liner and coordinating eyeshadow. We adore this failsafe pairing of soft orange and fuchsia and highly recommend it for party season. Just remember to keep the rest of your makeup light to your eyes to pull focus!

Fine point cat eyeliner

Since eyeliner just loves to melt and smudge throughout the summer months, we’re fully embracing its wearable return for autumn with an exaggerated cat eye flick. Have we seen this look before? Sure. Are we still in love with it? Hell yes! 

Statement white liner

Mix things up this autumn and switch out your eyeshadow palette for different coloured eyeliners instead. Use yours to draw fine curved lines along the lid rather than the lash line for a unique spin on 2022’s trending graphic liner look.
