The best autumn 2024 lip trends
As we kiss summer goodbye and prep our pouts for autumn, we’re updating our makeup bags with new, must-have formulas for the transition. From the throwback, grungy looks of the nineties to fresh, youthful-looking berry tones, discover our favourite autumn lip trends of 2024.
Ombré Lips
The perfect blend of noughties and old Hollywood glam, the Ombré lip is the latest trend on everybody’s pout. With the revival of the ‘90s beauty looks, modernise the classic dark lined statement lips with a softer gradient effect to add depth and dimension. Whether you’re going for a soft, romantic look or a daring, edgy vibe, ombre lips offer endless possibilities to express your style.
To achieve this sultry edge, line your lips with NYX Professional Makeup Suede Matte Lip Liner in shade ‘Club Hopper’, then blur into a swipe of the new and exclusive NARS Explicit Lipstick in shade ‘Last Night’ across the centre for a two-toned, rich autumnal statement finish. For an extra touch of gloss, add a layer of Kylie Skin Lip Oil in the clear, ‘Coconut’ shade to finish your look.
Crimson Lips
The ultimate power statement, give the classic rouge lip a new lease of life this cosy season with a range of skin-flattering shades: from bright cherry to rich merlot. Whether matte or glossy, crimson lips add a touch of drama and elegance, making them perfect for both day and night. Bold yet timeless, this trend is all about embracing your inner strength and making a lasting impression.
Wear red your way: from sheer tinted lip balms, slick gloss to a bold lipstick paired with muted eyes and cheeks, here's our favourite choices for the coveted crimson lip.
Berry Lips
Offering a beautiful blend of bold and playful, berry lips are autumn’s go-to look. Using shades ranging from deep plum to juicy raspberry, add a rich pop of colour that’s both versatile and flattering on all skin tones. Whether you choose a sheer tint or a full-coverage lipstick, berry lips bring a fresh, vibrant energy to any makeup look: the perfect choice for any occasion: from casual outings to glamorous events.
My large family of mainly women has made me passionate about all things beauty from a young age: from routines passed down from my grandmother, to trying the latest products and trends. After training as an MUA at MAC Cosmetics, my love for makeup has now evolved into making sure my skincare creates the perfect canvas for any look. I love anything that can make my base feel fresh & bright while accentuating my features – Bobbi Brown's Face Base is my holy grail at the moment!
