    FW 2010 Beauty Trends

    Hey makeup junkies! Next time you go to Sephora, keep these trends in mind if you are wondering what to buy. Here are are just a few of the upcoming beauty trends for F/W 2010. 

    vivid eye shadows in coppery shimmer

    Beauty will shift from dramatic eyeliner to smoke ringed eyes…from matte to metallics and from conservative hues to off beat brights. It’s fun, funky and fresh!

    Vivid blues and greens are hot hues for the upcoming seasons 

    To get this look, use a cream eyeshadow like this one from Shu Uemura


    richly stained pout 
    Stila Pomegranate Crush will help you achieve this look!


    Metallics for a frosty surface & glacial look

    To get this look, use a Mica based powder eyeshadow and don’t forget the eyeshadow primer. The primer will help it stay on and not crease throughout the day. Since mineral eyeshadow is super blend-able and easy to use, make sure you use a variety of shades to create your ultimate ice queen look. You can always layer for a more dramatic effect. Tap off the brush before you apply it to your eyes, or it will end up all over your cheeks.


    shadow to the brow, sparkles & multi-colored eyes 

    It’s hard not to feel super special when you have amazing makeup like this on!  Perfect for a girls night out or to make rainy cold days a little bit more bearable.  





    Use Make Up For Ever Glitters or Too Faced Starry Eye Liners and my personal fave Urban Decay.

    Switch up your makeup routine and be the first to rock these trends! Which look is your favorite?
