Your Fall Beauty Forecast

Whether you’re on the pulse of every new beauty product or stick to a basic routine of chapstick and moisturizer, a new season is the perfect time to shake things up. So, on the set of our Summer Brights photo shoot, we squeezed in a few minutes with our incredible team of experts to bring you their favorite fall beauty trends. Now we can’t help but count down the days until leaves start falling.

The Hair Expert: Megan Motter

We’re big fans of Megan’s hairstyling and her dedication to making our models feel extra beautiful. She gave us the scoop on all things fall hair—and we can’t wait for the return of ’60s glamour, the celebration of the natural, the sleek-and-styled look, and messy ponies.

Cute ponies are always in. They’re a great fall look!

The Makeup Expert: Elisa Flowers

In between takes, we sat down with Elisa—makeup artist for a long list of ad campaigns and educator for the brand Makeup For Ever—to talk fall trends. Lucky for all of us, there’s a little bit of everything! For the retro lovers, experiment with a ’60s-inspired double cat-eye. For the futuristic, maybe holographic accents or bright pops of color are more your speed.

For the girls who want to look natural, you can still bring in a pop of color with flushed cheeks and an understated lip.

The Nail Expert: Sunshine Outing

Sunshine’s nail art can be found on celebrities and on the pages of magazines, so we jumped at the chance to ask her what’s coming up in the nail world this fall. There’s plenty to get excited about, but one thing’s for certain—it’s all about getting back to basics. Think reds, blacks, metallics, and short lengths. And if you’re looking for extra pizzazz? Just add white tips or diagonal color-blocking to take any of these shades up a notch.

Red is a staple color. How can you go wrong?
