Sonia Kashuk is one of the most recognized makeup artists in the world (and she counts model Cindy Crawford as her longtime BFF). She even has her own line of beauty products, Sonia Kashuk for Target. I was lucky enough to catch up with Kashuk last week and she offered some of her best beauty tips for fall 2016, along with ideas on how to transition into holiday beauty.
Transitioning Makeup From Late Summer to Early Fall
I think you can slowly start warming up and putting away some of those bright poppy shades and going warmer. Even on the eyes if you’ve been wearing color and bronze-y you can go into a soft bordeaux or brown-y based or pinky tones. We’re seeing ’80s color for fall, so you can start transitioning for a bit of warmth and a bit of depth. Try utilizing your go-to shades and adding some brown to it. If you have a lighter colored eye shadow, add a light brown and you immediately add some depth. Start warming up and deepening up just a little bit. I’m heading into that direction, and that’s the trend with lip color as well.
Update Your Look
I think once in a while you can turn it upside down. If you’re someone that usually wears eye makeup, try a stronger lip. Try a statement lip. If you’re someone that usually wears lip color, try something with the eye. Even the bordeaux and warm orange-y red on the eye can be really beautiful. Look for warm and yet cozy at the same time. I love warmth on the face that has a little bit of color that works with your individual skin color.
New Textures
We’re seeing the evolution of mattes playing a bigger role in everything from lipstick to skin. Matte as we think about it and know it is different, it used to be flat but the new matte has glow and dimension and no flatness. It’s a bit more of a satin finish vs. what we used to think about matte. There’s such a push to skincare today and we all want our skin to have some glow. The new matte has that glow, and the newness is that unique and newfound way to work with matte and still have dimension for your skin.
Choosing Makeup Brushes
We have introduced a couple of new sets that are reminiscent of the current trends, interesting coloration with green or patterned handles and even more inspired by offshoots of colors. I think of application when I’m designing brushes—how do they glide along the cheekbone? How do they glide along the face? Are they more like an airbrush? I think of type of brush and airiness of brush. Brushes and shapes of brushes are evolving so much to fit hand in hand with application. I was known as the brush queen. There are so many brands now and so many are synthetic, which is great for creams, but I’m still a believer of natural hair brushes. There’s such an array out there and people get overwhelmed. Find some in your comfort zone, since there are brushes available and for every application possible.
Using Bold Colors and Jewel Tones
I think everyone of all ages can use these shades. They can give a twinkle to the eye. Even with myself being older, not ancient yet—but older. Even when I was testing these shades, they looked so good. And so different from what we think of as the old heavy shades. The colors look so pretty on everyone depending on how they’re applied. Even for day—we wear sequins on T-shirts, so why not on our eyes? That embellishment plays a role in makeup. You can be wearing jeans and T-shirt and that works. That’s your accessory.
Creating Your Personal Beauty Style
I feel like whatever you want to wear, wear it with confidence. The most important thing is that you feel good wearing it. Rules are so much out the window. There are no more rules. We used to think only shimmer at night in relationship to the play of wardrobe. Why could you wear sequins and embellishment during the day, but not makeup? The colors are spectacular. They’re not heavy. You can build. They can be soft and pretty and you can combine them with matte pencils. You have such an opportunity to be the artist. You can wear it during the day for a more subtle approach.
Holiday Preview:
We always think about added embellishment and a little more glitz when it comes to the holidays. You can start building that direction in the fall and it comes full circle as we approach the holidays. What’s right for fall will work for the holiday. I feel like this trend is ongoing and there are little additions you can add now and then as we get closer to holiday time, tweak little things that you’ve already been doing.
I tend to go back to our wardrobe and life. You kind of pick up key things. New shirt, new jeans…it gives something a little bit of edge or give a kick to something for the fall, you want something new. I’m not about emptying your makeup bag and buying something new every season. For me it’s about adapting a little bit and transitioning a little bit. Add a little depth. Add a little warmth and add a little shimmer. At any age and for whomever it is—wear what makes you feel good.
