Keep in mind, a consistent theme you’ll see for all of these colors is warm and soft – the dominate aspects of this color season. (Warm being the primary dominant factor.)
Warm Autumn Eye Makeup
You can create endless warm autumn makeup looks. In this case, we’re showcasing our favorite fall color combinations based on the unique features.
- Warm green eyes and golden blonde hair- Green eyes look great paired with red and coral tones. (Green and red are complimentary colors and sit across from one another on the color wheel.) We chose a soft medium shade that adds contrast to brow and liner.
- Soft darker hazel eyes and golden auburn hair- With red tones in the eyes and brows, we used a warm smokey shadow and a reddish brown liner.
- Soft golden brown hair and soft amber brown eyes- Amber eye tones are captivating and don’t need much makeup color to help stand out. We choose a warm brown liner paired with a warm golden shadow.
- Darker golden brown hair and soft darker brown eyes- Both brows and eyes the darkest tones for this color family. We added a slight contrast with medium shadow, but also kept a blend with a darker, soft liner.
Eyeshadow
The warm autumn makeup colors can sure create a fun eyeshadow palette. (In fact, you’ll find these tones in almost every fall palette.)
You have a wide variety of golden and warm tones to choose from. Look for warmer yellows, rusty oranges, rusty reds, golden browns, and warm purples and blues.
The warm autumn color season is dominantly warm and this is the same for the eye shadow colors. Avoid bright colors or those that have very cool tones.
Eyeliner
Eyeliner colors for warm autumns range from beautiful warm neutrals to soft and warm fashion reds, blues and greens.
Again, the consistent trend here is warm. Avoid cool dominant tones as well as bright tones.
Mascara
Stark black mascara can overpower this warm autumn color season.
Instead, we recommend darker browns and charcoals to help accentuate your warm tones. (Mascara tones are often the darkest options on your wardrobe color palette.)
Avoid wearing shades that are much darker, or much lighter than your natural hair color.
Brow Filler Colors
Your eyebrow pencil should match your natural hair color. Unfortunately, this sometimes mean you might need to mix and match a few shades to get that perfect shade.
The color listed on the brow filler should have “warm” listed on it. For example warm blonde, or warm brown. Avoid colors that are marked “cool.”
