☀️🤍 Prep & Skin
Deep Autumn skin should look warm, rich and glowing from the inside, so the base is where you keep gold in and gray out. A clear SPF serum first, then a foundation and concealer with a W in the name, matched to your depth. Powder only where you shine...
The base that does not turn gray or ashy on deep skin. Pick the W in your depth so it reads warm and skin-like, and buff it in with a damp sponge for a natural matte.
466W Pro Filt'r Fluid Flex Natural Matte Foundation - Fenty Beauty
Brightens under the eyes without the gray cast deep skin often gets from the wrong concealer. Choose the W at your depth, tap it in with a finger and keep it to the areas you want lifted.
The last step that locks everything in. A few spritzes after the powder melt the layers into skin so the base looks like skin and not makeup, and it stays put through the day.
SurrealSkin Setting Spray - MAKEUP BY MARIO
A lightweight SPF 50 serum for the first step. It goes on clear, so the rich base underneath is the only color you see. Give it a minute before foundation and reapply when you are outside.

A pressed powder in Café, the shade made for deep complexions. Use a light hand on the T-zone and press it in with a puff for touch ups.
This is where Deep Autumn gets its glow. Shape with a warm bronze contour that reads like a natural shadow, then add a bronzer for sun, a matte terracotta flush on the apples and a gold luminizer on top of the cheekbones. Pink or cool shades tend to ...
Warmth without turning orange. Drench is the tan-deep to deep shade with a warm golden undertone, so it adds sun to the cheeks and forehead like a golden hour glow. Sweep it on where the sun would hit.
A bronze gold glow that lights up deep skin instead of turning chalky. Press it on the tops of the cheekbones and the brow bone, where light would hit.
Phantom Shadow is the deep to rich deep shade, so it reads as a shadow under the cheekbone and not a muddy stripe. Draw it where the face turns and blend with your fingers or a damp sponge.
Rosewood nude gives a flush that reads as skin, not pink paint. Tap it on the apples and blend up toward the temples, then layer a little more for depth.

🖤 Brows & Eyes
Deep Autumn eyes look best warm and rich, never icy. Soft chocolate brows frame the face without the harshness of black, a matte warm red brown adds depth on the lid, a brown liner along the lashes defines, and brown mascara finishes it. Skip silver,...
Brown Black with warm undertones is the softest dark for Deep Autumn, so the brow frames the face without a cold black line. Use short hair strokes and brush through for a natural finish.

Strip Down is a matte warm red brown, so the lid reads as depth and warmth instead of ash. Sweep it across the lid with a finger and blend the edge up toward the brow bone.

Vintage Teddy is a deep warm brown with a bronze pearl, so it lines the eye with warmth and a little glow instead of a flat black. Smudge it along the lash line and keep it close to the lashes.
Uninhibited Brown is a deep rich brown, softer than black against warm skin and still dark enough to show up. Wiggle the brush at the roots and pull it up and out, then add a second coat on the outer lashes.

🍒 Lips
Deep Autumn lips look best in warm, rich color. Brick, terracotta and chocolate rose make deep skin glow, while blue-toned pinks and cool berries tend to look harsh. When you want it bold, a brick liner with a warm red matte does the talking, so keep...
Cinnamon is a brick brown, a warm line that makes a Deep Autumn lip look sculpted without turning red or pink. Line just outside the natural edge and fill in, then stop there or add a lipstick on top.
Lush 360 is a warm brick red, the Deep Autumn red that looks rich instead of blue or neon. Dab it on the center of the lips and press out to the edges, then blot once to soften the finish.

Fro$Ted Bunz is a sparkling amber gold, so it warms up a brick or brown lip with a flash of shine. Dab it on the center of the lower lip, or wear it over the lipstick to make the color look juicy.
Fro$Ted Bunz Gloss Bomb Oil Luminizing Lip Oil 'N Gloss - Fenty Beauty by Rihanna
A sheer red balm that gives the lips a warm wash of color and a plump, cushioned finish. Wear it over the liner on easy days, or at night when you want the color without a full lipstick.
