Fall 2012: Hair and Makeup Trends

Posted on November 15, 2012 | Leave a comment

Many hair and makeup trends this fall:

1. Straight hair is so popular- make it middle parted, waist-long, or add some bright coloured highlights/roots (as seen on Jean Paul Gaultier and Prada’s runways).

2. Neutral makeup is the main trend as always, just the sun bronze goes a little deeper than before (have a look at Isabel Marant and Rodarte girls).

3. Sleek low buns and loose high buns are not only the street favourites, perfect your hairdos with  berry shade lips and cat-eye makeup as Jil Sander and Mary Katrantzou girls.

4. Into dark glamour? Smoky eyes are a classic, also try blackberry lips and bug-inspired eyeshadows as seen on Bottega Veneta and Roberto Cavalli runways.

Neutral is key:
