Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice… 29 Autumnal Eyeshadow Looks to Try (Part 1 of 2)
I don’t know how I managed to come up with 58 different color combinations for autumn, but I did… I got carried away, obviously! 😁 I split them into two posts so that each post is a little more digestible. Happy fall!
About This Series
Each look idea is centered around a “quad” of four shades with the expectation that one might bring in the appropriate brow bone or additional transitional shade based on skin tone. I know that I tend to use more like five or six shades in a typical look, but I think that four is a happy medium to give a good idea of the “core” color scheme of a look while giving you the ability to lighten/darken as desired. I have listed the colors in this order: inner lid, middle of lid, outer lid/crease, and crease/above crease for how I would wear them.
You might see combinations that seem slightly repeated but placement will vary (e.g. a halo placement where the lightest and more shimmery shade is placed on the center) as placement can also create a different effect/look! You might also want to consider incorporating your favorite matte/shimmer shades (as applicable) to increase the versatility of certain palettes. Consider these ideas a jumping off point!
