The best fall makeup tricks: don’t wear mascara! Matte red lipstick and tricks that are back in fashion
The best fall makeup tricks: Glowy, dewy makeup has overtaken matte this season—while moody, bratty makeup is also having a moment. (Apparently, brat summer has more longevity than we gave it credit for.) And, of course, there’s nothing stopping us from leaning into both.
Now that we’re edging into a new season, it’s time to assess all of the fall makeup trends we need to keep on our radar.
Ahead, see all the fall makeup trends you need to know for 2024.

The best fall makeup tricks
No mascara with a bold lip
The best fall makeup tricks: It’s an age-old adage: eyes or lips? For fall 2024, it’s deliberately not the former. No mascara or minimal mascara looks are picking up momentum, and for extra exaggeration, we’ve seen bold lips—particularly, matte red—steal all the attention. It’s soft, strong and a whole fall makeup moment.
Boyfriend blush
We covered boyfriend blush when it started exploding on TikTok in spring, but the look is about to come into its own as things get windswept and interesting heading into fall. If you’re a blush girl, this one is for you, since the trend calls for an extra-generous application of blush to mimic the natural, flushed look of ruddy cheeks after a game of rugby or a brisk walk outdoors.
Espresso tones
First came latte makeup at the end of last summer, which morphed into mocha and espresso makeup in fall and winter. Plus, with Sabrina Carpenter’s namesake bop keeping espresso on the map, we’re about to see a repeat appearance of rich brown-toned coffee, toffee, and chocolatey tones applied across eyes, lips, and cheeks. It’s a departure from black, but still looks chic and classic.
Soft baddie
The best fall makeup tricks: For the uninitiated, baddie makeup has been dominating on TikTok and blends throwback ’90s cool-toned makeup looks, which are currently up 360% on Pinterest, with a modern, more pared-back approach to slick, snatched hot-girl makeup.
The brows are dark; the liner is sharp, slim, and perfectly executed; and lips are defined. For autumn, though, searches for “soft baddie makeup” are up a whopping 700% on Pinterest. It takes the signatures of baddie makeup but softens them for more of a girl-next-door take on sultry makeup.
Dewy makeup
The best fall makeup tricks: Heading into fall, we often see matte or semi-matte foundations take over from dewy, but “glowy dewy makeup” is pulling in more searches this season; it’s up 185% on Pinterest, in fact.
