Fall 2010 Makeup Trends

The "violet hour" of which we caught a glimpse during the earlier seasons this year, has now become a movement, a force to reckon with... making this whole purple spectrum simply irresistible!

Do not worry about being confused with all the extreme shades of purple. Thanks to availability of many beauty brands you can now blend shades of orchid, mauve, lavender, and eggplant into eyeshadows, lipsticks and polishes.

From left to right: M.A.C. Palace Pedigree Lipstick in Cunning, $14, available at OGILVY and LA BAIE, YSL Rogue Volupte Perle in Mesmerizing Purple, $34, available at LA BAIE,  Dior Serum de Rouge in Plum Serum, $32, available at LA BAIE and OGILVY.

As for the eyes, you can play with lavender shades of purple, creating a smokey plum eye.

When I dabbled and played with the above mentioned colours, I came up with something like this: L'oreal HIP Studio Secrets Eyeshadow Duo in Elecrtified ($8) available at Pharmaprix, Murale, Jean Coutu. So come'on ladies, let's get into fall's groove - intense, bold, and sexy, all at once!
