If we speak about bright make up (and it should be bright this autumn), we mean that the lips are the brightest detail in this complex image


If we speak about bright make up (and it should be bright this autumn), we mean that the lips are the brightest detail in this complex image. They are a symbol and focus of female sex appeal, coquetry.
In principle, this affirmation is true also for this fashionable season. Most actual make up trends deserve a term “provoking”. And here you won’t do without provoking bright lips. Firstly, sweet shades are still actual, which attracted us in summer so much. But a berry palette (plum, raspberry, strawberry) has given place to a coffee-chocolate and caramel.
 
Naturally, this is a warm color spectrum of brown and beige shades. Calling them bright is difficult even with a very rich tone. In combination with tanned skin they form a very harmonious picture, but do not challenge conventionalities. However, they would be boring in mat performance, so in such color spectrum you should choose firstly transparent sparkles with holders or small goldish pollen.
 
Secondly, make up experts remembered about the fact that all brilliant ideas are simple. And what can be simpler and more brilliant, than a classic mat (without sparkles) lipstick of scarlet or coral shade? Young Sophia Loren is offered as as example today, her combination of smooth tanned skin and a big scarlet mouth was just striking.
 
Moreover, usage of such lipstick tones creates a femme fatale image, slightly forgotten already by us. You know, for several previous seasons we got used to either a rather vapid traditional “real lady”, whose make up should be only in moderate shades; or innocent ninny girls with clear “natural” skin, light shadows and almost natural lipstick. Actual femme fatale, which came down from an old cinefilm of “noir” films, has light skin without signs of rouge, long black eyelashes and cherry-red lips. A real style!
 
 
 
You can achieve such effect - clear contour, soft oily texture, bright rich color - only with help of a lipstick. Sparkles will still look vulgar in such situation, even if palette and shades are similar. No additional contours are used - everything is achieved only with help of a lipstick.
 
Thirdly, “Gothic” motives, which are popular among many famous Fashion Houses now, showed their worth in decorative cosmetics too. Their simplest display - is a very dark brown or vinous lipstick, resembling black color from a distance. In combination with dark-brown, almost black enamel, this gives a striking effect.
 
But this is still an extremely radical image. Fans of movies about vampires or punk-rock will like it, but an independent business-woman will hardly have the courage to use it. And this is right! Gothic can come into our life in softer and much more interesting variants.
 
This is a real salt of this stylish season. It is expressed in combination of very pale tones and a bright one (scarlet, coral, cherry, wine-coloured). If you still cannot choose what you like most - natural tones of summer season or coming scarlet aggressiveness of femme fatale, - you will like this very variant. To create it, apply a make-up foundation or mat powder of light or natural shades on your lips generously. Apply a stria of dark lipstick in the center of your lips and shade it with fingers for soft natural switch to a light tone.
 
 
 
The more jauntily this will look, the better. Accentuate your lip contour with a light pencil or opaque lip-gloss.
This is, probably, the most interesting approach in modern trends. However, you will find not so many occasions to try it on yourself. But, this is rather a good variant for an evening date or party.
If you don’t like extreme experiments, you can choose a continuation of summer trends - and this is fourthly. Today visagistes offer us using a powder, mat make-up foundation or correctors of natural tones instead of contour pencils, lipstick and lip-gloss.
 
 
 
You can notice, that this resembles a well-known to us “natural” make up. However, in that case we achieved a “natural” effect with help of special cosmetics, but nobody should notice it. This autumn, to the contrary, your lips make up should be noticeable. Carelessness, irregular contour are especially welcomed. But a color of this cosmetic should be very light, even close to white. In combination with long false eyelashes and black shaded shadows this will look just poisonous.
