Keeping things simple when it comes to make up doesn’t mean that you have to abandon being bold. Graphic eyeliner and bold lips are trending this fall and I’m putting a twist an old classic.

Eyes

A fun way to get graphic with your eyeliner is to opt for colour. To put a twist on a classic cat-eye liner I used the About Face Line Artist Longwear Gel Liner in Electric Slide. This high-definition gel eyeliner is highly pigmented with a matte finish and a great substitute for a traditional black or brown shade. It’s a fun and unexpected way of elevating your makeup and a unique way to play with colour.

Lips

The statement lip is another hot trend this season and to compliment the lime-green liner, I opted for a deep berry lip. Here I’m using the Kylie Cosmetics Matte Lip Kit in Bite Me — a deep burgundy-red liquid lipstick that is long lasting, highly pigmented and a matte finish. With it being such a matte finish, I suggest applying the Bert’s Bee’s lip balm as a base for extra hydration.
