Autumn is a period of transition and change, so it’s not surprising that the season’s

beauty trends are reflective of the transformative power of nature. This vibrant look pays homage to the leafy autumn colours found in the forest.

Christine Lucignano, makeup artist for Chanel, explains the revitalisation of the traditional smokey eye: “The dark smokey eye has been evolving to more of a coloured smokey eye.” To mark this transformation, the autumn winter collections were littered with tangerine and burnt orange shades. Adding black eyeliner lends a striking

dimension to this look, as seen at Sophie Theallet. Meanwhile embracing tangerine hues across the face, as at Hervé Léger, creates a fresh, dewy visage.

While the brightness of orange shades can be intimidating, Lucignano says the look can be tempered. “To get that little breakthrough of colour, take your fingertip or brush and wash the colour all over the eyelids. This shade is a really youthful sort of wash, so you see the colours in the iris start to emerge as they bounce off the shadow. Make sure to blend the colour so that it emerges as a haze.” Finish with a layer of mascara.

Embrace autumnal colours with a new spin on the smokey eye. By Suzanne Murphy.
