If you love experimenting with more daring and exciting looks that still feel effortless, this season’s makeup trends are made for you.
Fall and winter 2024 are all about played-up eyes and deep lips—a combination that feels romantic, a little dramatic, and perfect for holiday parties or any festive occasion.
At Dressing Your Truth, we’ve embraced one of the season’s signature shades: black cherry red. This rich, moody color on the lips pairs beautifully with played-up and more dramatic eyes, creating a look that’s both balanced and eye-catching. Whether you’re at a sparkling holiday party or a cozy winter gathering, this look ensures you’ll shine.
Here’s how to achieve this season’s most talked-about look:
Start with the Perfect Base
A primed canvas is key for any makeup look. Begin with our Lifting & Firming Face Primer, which smooths and preps your skin while enhancing its natural radiance. It’s the perfect primer for long-lasting makeup—ideal for nights filled with dancing, toasts, and plenty of photos.
Dramatic Eyes That Mesmerize
Played-up eyes are the season’s standout trend, easily tailored to your Type of beauty. So, whatever your Type, played-up eyes are your go-to for making a statement this season.
Lips That Make a Statement
This holiday season, it’s all about black cherry red lips—a deep, dramatic color that’s as versatile as it is stunning. Whether you prefer a soft stain for a daytime event or a fully pigmented pout for evening glamour, this color transforms any look into a showstopper.
Balance Is Key
With bold eyes and lips, keep your cheeks understated. A light sweep of blush in a neutral color will add warmth and cohesion to your overall look without stealing focus.
