by Chanté Walker

As we step into a new season, it's time to refresh our beauty routines with the hottest fall makeup trends that are taking over this season. From glowing, natural skin to iconic cat eyes and irresistible glossy lips, this fall is all about embracing looks that are both effortlessly chic and bold. Dive into these must-try trends that promise to elevate your beauty game and keep you looking fabulous all season long.

The Skin is Skinning!

This fall, it’s all about letting your natural beauty take the spotlight. Heavy contouring and full-coverage foundations? That’s so last season. For 2024, the trend is fresh, glowing, and dewy skin that looks like you, but better. We’re talking skin that breathes, shines, and radiates health. It’s giving “I drink my water and mind my business” vibes, and we’re absolutely here for it.

According to the 2024 Pinterest report, searches for dewy fresh and glowy makeup have shot up as more of us lean into effortless, lit-from-within skin. The real star of the season? Soft baddie makeup, with searches up by a whopping 700%! This look is all about subtle glam—think dewy finishes, soft blush, and a barely-there highlight that keeps your skin looking flawless but natural. Fall’s makeup mood is less about covering up and more about enhancing what you’ve already got—because the skin is skinning, and we’re loving it!

Cat Eyes: The Main Character

From the icons before Amy Winehouse to the pop divas after Ariana Grande, the cat eye wing liner has been the reigning queen of eye looks for decades. This timeless trend has proven its staying power and, once again, it's taking center stage for fall 2024. Why? Because a sharp, fierce winged liner is more than just makeup—it’s an attitude.

The beauty of the cat eye lies in its versatility. Whether it’s a subtle flick for a daytime vibe or a dramatic wing for full-on glam, this look works wonders at lifting and elongating the eyes. It instantly gives your gaze that snatched, lifted effect, making your eyes appear more defined, and undeniably captivating. This season, the cat eye is doing what it’s always done—stealing the show—and if you’re not already rocking it, now’s the perfect time to master that wing!

Extra Glossy, Extra Soft

This fall, your lips are about to serve up some serious style with two standout trends: concealer lips and glossy finishes. For those days when you’re all about that soft glam look, concealer lips are your go-to. This trend is all about creating a muted, barely-there tone that enhances your natural lip color while giving a dreamy, understated vibe. It’s the ultimate way to achieve that effortlessly chic look without making a bold statement. With a combination of lip liner, a nude cream lipstick, or your very own concealer, you can achieve this look in minutes. 

But wait—if you’re feeling a bit more extra, gloss is here to elevate your lip game. Gloss adds just the right amount of shine to make your lips pop without overshadowing your look. It’s not about making a loud statement but rather serving a shiny reminder that your lip combo is totally unmatched. Whether you choose to keep it soft with concealer or turn up the shine with gloss, fall 2024’s lip trends are all about balancing that subtle glam with undeniable flair.

Your Own Seasonal Glow-Up 

This fall, it’s all about your personal glow-up. Embrace the season’s hottest trends with dewy, radiant skin, bold cat eyes, and lips that shine like never before. With these looks, you’re not just following trends—you’re setting them, radiating confidence and style all season long. So go ahead, make these trends your own and let your makeup speak volumes!
