As we enter into a new fall season, I can’t help but to think about my childhood memories in Kansas as the leaves started to fall to the ground. Jumping in and out of the piles of leaves that we had to rake made cleaning the front yard that much more fun. This beautiful penny, copper eyeshadow look was inspired by the rainbow of colors that the leaves give around this time of year.

Play up your fall party looks by being bold and going for color that reflects the season and makes brown eyes pop. Penny copper eyeshadow for brown eyes is a beautiful choice and is always a win for brown eyed beauties. It lights up your entire face with a radiant glow. With Paris, I wanted to capture the true feel of the season so that she could tell a story with her eyes. The look was created by starting with MAC Copperring Eyeshadow as a base and topping that off with the copper orange in the Wet N Wild Fantasy Glitter Eyeshadow Palette. Paris’ skin is naturally beautiful, but I gave her a semi matte foundation finish with a subtle contour and highlight.

PARIS ON HER LOOK
When I think of my fall makeup, I usually stick to matte brown shadows and a soft brown lip. This look definitely changed my mind on how much further I can go with fall makeup. These colors are beautiful and bold, yet warm and whimsical. I love this look!
