With Fall 2017 around the corner, it’s officially time to deepen and darken your makeup look of the day. If you’ve spent your entire summer rocking pastel lips, you’ll be pleased to know that shades of plum are going to be lighting up faces everywhere soon. As we await the cool breeze of autumn, we can start by warming up our statement lip tone.

Spotted on the Fall 2017 catwalk at Fenty x Puma, punchy purple lips are clearly the hottest runway beauty trend for autumn. Although the Fenty x Puma look focused on a vivid deep violet colour and fiercely outlined feline eyes, other variations of the look can be spotted on Instagram. The addition of bold cat eyes, luscious eyelashes and rouged cheekbones can easily illuminate your bold lips. When paired with a flawless lightweight complexion and bold arched eyebrows, plum lipstick can certainly accent your facial features.

For a more minimalistic beauty statement, try turning to a deeper plum lipstick tone and a no makeup look. From allowing your skin’s natural texture to shine to keeping your eye makeup understated, plum-coloured lips are an ideal accent look. With soft rosy blush and a single coat of mascara, the look of a dark purple pout can help you capture autumn vibes, even before we officially welcome the season.
