 7 biggest Fall 2020 make-up trends

Amid the current isolation, endless indoors days, and all sorts of uncertainties, the Fall 2021 runways presented escapism of all kinds. Particularly on the beauty front, the runways brought fantasies to reality and ambitious notions look possible for everyday life. In New York, Marc Jacobs celebrated the evergreen and classic red lips and black eyeliner combination, while Valentino showed sharp contour lines, to larger than life eyeliner wings. Another theme that got beauty folks’ attention was the resurgence of dark romance and gothic beauty.  From Rodarte to Gucci, Valentino to Alexander Mcqueen, luxury brands flaunted Bordeaux lips, floral headpieces as well as punk-leaning dark nails and streaked updos. Prada and Sacai skewed towards raw skin looks with a stark contrast to an array of eyes.

Many of us have only been reaching for the concealer and mascara in our beauty bags recently, for a random Friday night indoor dinner or for the endless Zoom meetings. O, understandably, it might be hard to imagine getting excited to put on a full face. But whenever the mood strikes to play with makeup again, the fall runways have provided endless inspiration. Check out the 7 top fall makeup 2021 trends ahead.

1. Line it over and above

Beauty influencers have been rocking this ‘experimental’ look since the last season, and it seems now this has become a must-try global makeup trend. Consider wearing liner and shadow outside the bounds of your lash lines. Especially at Prada, floating rectangles of iridescent shadow gave every model a striking, futuristic vibe. If you're feeling extra (which you should!), experiment with a colored eyeliner and ditch the classic black.

2. Orange eyeliner

Orange is the new black, you might have heard this phrase or – might have seen the Netflix binge-worthy show. Knock knock! – who’s this? It’s your black eyeliner and she is tired. So switch things up with this fall 2021 makeup trend. An orange eyeliner adds the right amount of color to your look without being completely overpowering. Depending on your mood, you can try muted orange or a neon orange.

3. Dark and Gothic

Would it even be a fall makeup trend roundup without a dark lip? Nah! This year, go all out with gloss and shine and skip the matte option for a change. Gloss also helps to give your look some dimension. Top the look off with graphic black eyeliner and some crystals art around your eyebrows or cheeks.

4. Orange blush

We have seen the classic rose pink blush, to coral blushes. Then we survived mauve and purple hues of blush. But the idea of an orange blush sounds a little bit scary, doesn’t it? But trust us, you can pull off this fall 2021 makeup trend with such an ease that you wouldn’t imagine. Once you pick the right shade of tangy for your skin tone, you'll be left with a glory, fresh look that adds the perfect amount of depth to your skin. Get your glow on with this fall 2021 makeup trend. Sweep an orange blush on your cheeks, temples, and underneath your brow bones to give yourself a fresh all over flush.

5. Extra-glossy nude lips

This fall 2021 makeup trend is all about shine, as the name suggests. We suggest you start searching for the perfect lip gloss now, before all the best ones are sold out. Work a nude lip liner onto your lips and then layer a gloss on top to get hydrated, smooth, and glossy-AF lips.

6. Extra-lined eyes

Kohl rimmed lids are a classic and there’s no denying that they give your gaze an instant intensity and boldness. At Marc Jacobs fall 2021 runway show, over 100 dancers and models all wore variations of thick black eyeliner, proving it's a worthwhile trend that everyone can wear.

7. Rainbow eyeshadow

There is no limit to the number of colors you can wear are your lids at once with this trend unleashing your inner creative genius. Painting on a full rainbow look can be both incredibly purgative as well as Instagram-friendly.

To sum it up, designers are throwing back to the ’70s this year for the fall makeup collections, and where supermodels from the golden eras also served as inspiration for the dashes of silver shadow and vinyl rose lips. Some designers took cues from the vintage sculptures, in the form of wavy textures around the face for a French bourgeois, as seen at both Chloé and Miu Miu. also, don’t forget, black Eyeliner has something for everyone this fall.
