Makeup Tips to Help You Rock Your Mask

As we roll into fall it looks like there isn’t going to be an end to the mask mandates in the near future. This can make things extremely difficult when it comes to makeup. Some have chosen to solve this dilemma by simply not wearing any makeup, but with the tips, we are about to share with you, you can rock your mask and makeup too.

Keep the Focus on Your Eyes

With most public spaces requiring a mask, half your face will be hidden. So this fall the focus should be kept on your eyes. With the right eye makeup, your beauty will shine right through the mask. 

Bright and Bold- Since you’ll be making your statement almost exclusively with your eyes, bright and bold is the way to go for the most dramatic effect. Greens, oranges, and plums are some of the bright colors inspired by nature that you’ll be seeing this season. For a more subtle pop of color, cover your lid with more neutral eyeshadow and use a bold colored eyeliner to get a more muted touch of color.

Smokey Eye- What eye makeup look is more alluring than a smokey eye? To update this look for fall simply trade the charcoal for autumn colors. Shades of plum, rust, green, or brown can be applied using the same technique for a softer seasonal version of this look.

Barely There Cheeks

It’s nearly impossible to keep blush in place while wearing a mask. The mask comes in contact with your face right across your cheekbones and rubs off all the color. So the trend for fall is bare cheeks. If you just can’t imagine going without some color on your cheeks, be sure to choose a soft nude shade that won’t be too noticeable if part of it rubs off. The last thing you want is to have to remove your mask and have an obvious mask line right through the middle of your cheek.

Low-key Lips

Most people will be skipping the lipstick simply because it seems a shame to apply a product that no one will see. But be sure and use a moisturizing lip balm to keep your lips smooth and hydrated. For those times that the mask comes off, carry a tinted lip gloss in a nude shade to compliment the bright eye makeup so that you can present a perfectly polished appearance without being overdone.
