THE TRENDS
Autumn’s biggest beauty trends are here: get ready to embrace a more confident look.
BOLD MATTE LIPS
No longer reserved for evening wear, bold matte red lips are a key AW24 trend. Makeup artist Diane Kendal used Nars on the Khaite runway, showcasing the most impactful way to nail this trend.
90’S GRUNGE EYES
Want a new way to work your eyes? Grunge is back and in a glamorous way. Create a slightly dishevelled, smudgy and sexy look using dark, smoky and earthy tones.
PRISTINE POLISH
According to Nailberry, crisp, clean, pristine polishes are set to make a big comeback this autumn. Choose a modern neutral that really stands out. We love their opaque Flocon snowflake shade.
BOYFRIEND BLUSH
Moving on from summer’s sunburnt blush, create a slightly ruddy look like you’ve just come back from a brisk walk outdoors. Choose a creamy blush with a red or deep berry base as these are the tones found naturally in your face.
FEATHERY BROWS
Say goodbye to bold and blocky brows, this season it’s all about a subtle, natural finish. Think feathery not fluffy and use a slim gel pencil with a fine tip. This is the best way of recreating believable, brow-hair strokes.
GLASS SKIN
The trend for low maintenance, natural-looking makeup continues. The goal? To create the healthiest and most hydrated version of your skin possible.
BOUNCY BLOW DRY
Big hair is back. From jumbo back-combed bouffants to big impactful blow-dries, this season, it’s all about adding height and bounce. GHD’s Rise Hot Brush promises 2 x more volume… form an orderly queue.
